《動物農莊》是二十世紀最著名的政治寓言之一,描寫一個農莊中的動物揭竿而起,推翻農莊主人的極權統治,組織所謂的「民主自治」政府,最終卻發現政權成為主政者謀求私利的工具,因而產生了新的政治暴力與極權政府。本書以動物們追求自由民主的夢想為命題,強烈批判二十世紀馬克思理論與共產政權的正當性,質疑政治權力的濫用,暴露統治者以政治理想為藉口而行政治暴力之實的虛偽心態,為批判文學的經典之作。
Animal Farm is a satirical allegorical novella by George Orwell, first published in England on 17 August 1945. The book tells the story of a group of farm animals who rebel against their human farmer, hoping to create a society where the animals can be equal, free, and happy. Ultimately, however, the rebellion is betrayed, and the farm ends up in a state as bad as it was before, under the dictatorship of a pig named Napoleon.
“All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others.”
A farm is taken over by its overworked, mistreated animals. With flaming idealism and stirring slogans, they set out to create a paradise of progress, justice, and equality. Thus the stage is set for one of the most telling satiric fables ever penned—a razor-edged fairy tale for grown-ups that records the evolution from revolution against tyranny to a totalitarianism just as terrible.
When Animal Farm was first published, Stalinist Russia was seen as its target. Today it is devastatingly clear that wherever and whenever freedom is attacked, under whatever banner, the cutting clarity and savage comedy of George Orwell’s masterpiece have a meaning and message still ferociously fresh.
