Question

Explain the transaction between Mr. Frederick and Napoleon. Why does Napoleon blame Snowball?

Answer 1

Answer:

Explain the transaction between Mr. Frederick and Napoleon.

There is another incident in Chapter Seven in which Napoleon finds a pile of timber and instructs Mr. Whymper to sell it. Pilkington and Frederick are both "anxious" to buy the wood, and Napoleon spends some time deciding to whom he should sell. In the next chapter, Napoleon decides to sell the timber to Frederick, but Frederick pays for the logs with forged banknotes. When Napoleon realizes what has happened, he is furious and pronounces the sentence of death upon Frederick. Frederick and his men then attack the farm and blow up the windmill.

Why does Napoleon blame Snowball?

Snowball is blamed for the ruination of community project, and Napoleon gets exactly what he wanted, control over the other animals. Complete control. Afterwards, Napoleon supports the rebuilding of the windmill, something he wanted all along but now he has initiated the project; it becomes his.

Napoleon uses the scape-goat, a style of propaganda which points blame elsewhere. Some of the problems on Animal Farm were within Napoleon's power to solve, others were not. No matter what the problem was Napoleon pointed to Snowball so the animals would point their need for justice there. Had there been opportunity for them to place their anger, they would have lashed out on Snowball.

Answer 2

Answer:

Since there are problems on the farm, it is helpful to blame them on Snowball. If animals started blaming Napoleon for things, he might lose his position of power.

Hope this helps!!
