Answer:
George Orwell uses allegory in Animal Farm for the following purposes:
1. to expose the corruption of the communists in Russia
2. to represent the struggles of the labor class in Russia
Explanation:
In this well-known and widely read Animal Farm, the author employs allegories to freely give symbolic expressions to human figures and actions, using fictional figures, storytelling, and painting of truths in disguise.
Leaders of the Animal Farm come to power promising ideal conditions for the citizens. Before long, they fall into complacency because the temptation to live a more luxurious life and pursue personal interests is higher for leaders in power as they too often forget their campaign promises and backgrounds. The citizens must ensure that there are "checks and balances" to ensure that, for example, a democratically elected president "does not legislate from the bench."
