LITERARY LUMINARY 1. pg. 18 "Let us face it: our lives are miserable, laborious and short. We are born, we are given just as much food as will keep the breath in our bodies, and those of us who are capable of it are forced to work to the last atom of our strength; and the very instant that our usefulness has come to and end, we are slaughtered with hideous cruelty. -This is an important part of the reading because it is the main part of Major's protest in convincing the other animals to be against human beings.

2. pg. 22 & 23. The "Beasts of England" song. -This is improtant material from the reading because it was a part of Major's dream he had the night before. The song in which he could hardly remember from when he was little and had later had forgotten the words, but in his dream he could sing the whole song and had shared the song with the other barn animals. This song was sang at the end of all the meetings that were held.

3. pg. 28 & 29. The moment he and his four men were in the store-shed with wipes in their hands, lashing in all directions. This was more than the hungry animals could bear. With one accord, through nothing of the kind had been planned forehand, they flung themselves upon their tormentors. Jones and his men suddenly found themselves being butted and kicked from all sides. The situation was quite out of their control. -This section of chapter 2 is the beginning of the rebellion of the animals against the humans, starting with Mr. Jones and taking over the farm.

4. pg. 33. "The Seven Commandments" ''1. Whatever goes upon 2 legs, is an enemy. 2. Whatever goes on 4 legs, or has wings, is a friend. 3. No animal shall wear clothes. 4. No animal shall sleep in a bed. 5. No animal shall drink alcohol. 6. No animal shall kill any other animal. 7. All animals are equal.'' -This was important because it shows the animals becoming civil and organised in the act of "Animailism".
