| Abstract: | The aim of this thesis was to compare George Orwell’s novel Animal Farm and the animated film Chicken Run. The theme in both works is a rebellion, so I compared its reasons and consequences. I compared farms, farm owners, revolt managers (Napoleon and Ginger) and other characters, and lastly analyzed and compared both works as allegories. I came to the conclusion that both revolts were stimulated by masters’ evil characteristics and lack of care and kindness for animals. However, not both revolts ended with freedom and prosperity for animals. I highlighted the reasons for this discrepancy. The analysis of allegories showed that both, the novella and the film, use animal characters to construct an idea of how people were oppressed in the history, each highlighting a different part of European history. |
