How does the introduction of Minimus the poet support the author's purpose?
ddd [7053]
This is the excerpt from the poem. They had just finished the song for the third time when Squealer, with two dogs, approached, appearing to have something significant to announce. He declared that, due to Comrade Napoleon's directive, "Beasts of England" was now abolished and could not be sung anymore. The animals were surprised and questioned, "Why?" Squealer replied, "It is unnecessary, comrade. 'Beasts of England' represented the Rebellion, which has now concluded. The afternoon's traitor executions marked the final act. We have defeated both external and internal enemies. 'Beasts of England' expressed our hope for a better society to come. Now that society is established, the song serves no function." Although some animals might have protested, the sheep kept bleating, "Four legs good, two legs bad," drowning out the discussion. Thus, "Beasts of England" was no longer heard. Instead, Minimus, the poet, composed a new song that began: Animal Farm, Animal Farm, Never through me shalt thou come to harm! This was performed every Sunday morning after the flag was raised. Yet somehow, neither the lyrics nor the melody seemed to resonate with the animals like "Beasts of England" did. Minimus symbolizes the creators of state-sanctioned songs and slogans during Stalin's governance. Explanation: The excerpt is from "Animal Farm," a Utopian satire penned by George Orwell, published in 1945. It serves as a fable reflecting the Russian communist system during Stalin's regime and the betrayal associated with Joseph Stalin's actions. The satire illustrates how Stalinism undermined the ideals of the socialist revolution in the USSR. The poet Minimus introduces a fresh song that is sung on Sunday mornings.
