Contrast and Compare Napoleon(Animal Farm) and Big

Brother(1984) Characters in George Orwell's Masterpieces.

George Orwell talks about the contempt for and fear of totalitirian
governments in the books Animal Farm and 1984.In both book,there is
corrupted regimes and some people--Napoleon in Animal Farm and Big
Brother in 1984-- claim that current situation can only change by shifting the
regime immediately.They promise their nation a more comfortable and more
fair lives.And they also claim that they become all equal with this new
regime.
In this article i am going to try to contrast and compare these characters
changing the regimes and reigning over their nation.
Both Big Borther and Napoleon show the qualities of a cruel
leaders.They are unrelenting and cunning.Most critics say that Orwell
explicitly build a similarity between Stalin and Big Brother-Napoleon.He
critices the skewnesses of communism . They both take the lead by saying the
current order must be changed.They advocate that the current orders have
been exploiting the proletirat and it can be only changed by shifting the
current regime.They come to power with the help of their nations but soon
they subdue their nations and start to behave cruelly.They nourish the people
with heroic feelings.They provide the permanency of system by fighting
against rival forces.They empose their ideas to the people and kill dissidents
without any hesitation.
Similar to Napoleon,Big Brother is secretive plotter working behind
scenes rather openly.However Big Brother,unlike Napoleon,periodically
appears on the television screen.And he gives his people directions and
demonishes them,either.But Napoleon takes the decisions in his office and
make his men announce them to the public.Big Brother and Napoleon always
work to weaken their rivals.For example,Napoleon tries to dismiss Snowball
from the farm by saying he is a betrayer and plays along with the owner of the
farm.As for Big Brother,he exiles Rutherford and he makes people think
Rutherford is a Betrayer,too.Both Rutherford and Snowball are first on the
side of Napoleon and Big Brother but they-Napoleon and Big Brother-send
away them because they both secure their power.Snowball and Rutherford see
the faults of leaders and they warn them.
They both organize complicated ceremonies and parades to absent their
people from thinking about their deeds.Napoleon's control over farm isn't as
powerful as Big Brother's control over the workers.Big Brother and Napoleon
have both come to power with the promise of changing the current situation
but later they started to treat people as the former officials had done.They
finally have no difference from the others.
In both books,the side who always faces persecution is society.They are
made to work without reasoning.Working classes try to live in very bad
conditions with low quality products given by officials and never receive a
recompense for their services.
Both leader direct his men to kill anyone who utters the faults and
strings attached of the system or who comes into antagonism with
state.Besides,they both have a feature that wanting to rewrite the history de
vono for their interests like showing the unreal things as if they were real and
vice versa to strengthen their power and to wash people's brains.For example
,they hoodwink people by manipulating and concealing the facts of
government statictics and deeds but people have been made so insensitive that
they accept all things without any reasoning.
