Irony (cont’d)<br />

n<br />

Orwell uses dramatic irony to<br />

create a particularly subtle<br />

satire. Satire stages a<br />

critique of an individual,<br />

group, or idea by<br />

exaggerating faults and<br />

revealing hypocrisies. The<br />

dramatic irony of <strong>Animal</strong><br />

<strong>Farm</strong> achieves this aim<br />

indirectly. We see the<br />

hypocrisy that the animals<br />

don't and therefore<br />

understand in this backward<br />

fashion that the book is<br />

deeply critical of the pigs.
