Use Of Language In Animal Farm

Language can control and manipulate situations in many ways. In the book "Animal Farm" situations are twisted and turned around with the use of language and propaganda, thus being done so by a pig named Squealer. Propaganda is information, especially of a biased or misleading nature, used to promote or publicize a particular political cause or point of view. Squealer can talk his way out of everything, but why he can do this is because of his outstanding use of clear and precise language.

In "Animal Farm" the society is a dictatorship. The flow and knowledge of information and rules are controlled by the dictator, Napoleon, through propaganda.
