Samenvatting
Chapter 1: After Mr. Jones, the owner of Manor Farm, falls asleep drunk, all of his animals
meet in the big barn at the request of old Major, a 12-year-old pig. Major delivers a political
speech about the evils inflicted upon them (kwaad dat hen wordt aangedaan) by their human
keepers and their need to rebel against Man. After discussing the various ways that Man has
exploited and harmed the animals, Major mentions a strange dream of his in which he saw a
vision of the earth without humans. He then teaches the animals a song — "Beasts of
England" — which they sing repeatedly until they awaken Jones, who fires his gun from his
bedroom window, thinking there is a fox in the yard. Frightened by the shot, the animals
disperse and go to sleep.
Chapter 2: After the death of old Major, the animals spend their days secretly planning the
rebellion, although they are unsure when it will occur. Because of their intelligence, the pigs
are placed in charge of educating the animals about Animalism, the name they give to the
philosophy explained by Major in Chapter 1. Among the pigs, Snowball and Napoleon are
the most important to the revolution. Despite Mollie's concern with ribbons and Moses' tales
of a place called Sugarcandy Mountain, the pigs are successful in spreading the principles of
Animalism to the others.
The rebellion occurs when Jones again falls into a drunken sleep and neglects to feed the
animals, who break into the store-shed in search of a meal. When Jones and his men arrive,
they begin hitting the animals but soon find themselves being attacked and chased off the
farm. The triumphant animals then destroy all traces of Jones, eat, and enjoy their newfound
freedom. After a tour of Jones' house, they decide to leave it untouched as a museum.
Snowball changes the sign reading "Manor Farm" to "Animal Farm" and paints the Seven
Commandments of Animalism on the wall of the barn. The cows then give five buckets of
milk, which Napoleon steals.
