| Abstract: | The diploma thesis Satirical Speech and Writing in Orwell’s Animal Farm is a presentation of George Orwell’s life and how it affected his literary work. It dealt with and presented the reasons for the creation of the novel, Animal Farm. The aim was to present Orwell’s veiled criticism of the Soviet Union, especially the indirect attack on Stalinist communism. Speciality of the novel is that the characters are symbolically represented by the animals. The novel faced many rejections before it was published, therefore the aim was to present the reasons for its rejection and how it became successful. Orwell’s writing style is simple and the use of language is unsentimental. He developed the rules for writing which were applied in his work. The last chapter represents satire, where Orwell’s political satire is described. The chapter also deals with the examples and analysis of satirical speech and writing in Animal Farm. |
