Show transcript
Many of the animals in 'Animal Farm' do not have a voice within the text. Arguably, we connect having a voice with having power. Potentially, Orwell is representing how the masses do not have a voice in political systems. Arguably, we see the pigs’ suppressing the animals language. Orwell implies that the animals' lack of linguistic ability contributes to their subjugation .
