Lesson details

Lesson outcome

I can explain how the pigs' shifting language represents their shifting ideologies in 'Animal Farm'.

Show transcript
We see the pigs' language shifting throughout 'Animal Farm'. Arguably, this shift reflects ideological shifts. For example, the shifting place name represents the pigs' shifting ideology around Animalism. Potentially, Orwell might be commenting on how language can be used to rewrite history.
