The usage of animals in Nosferatu is far more subtle and covert than in Kedi. Animals are not used as fully-fledged characters, rather, their prevalence is far more symbolic than it is as a driver of the plot. Animals are used as slight accents on individual themes. The werewolf in the forest outside Orlok's Castle furthers the sinister nature of the setting while also representing the inherent danger in venturing to that locality. Another example is rats, who are used frequently in tandem with the idea of death. They are seen wildly crawling out of coffins to truly emphasize the impure and ever-extending grasp of death.
The usage of animals in Kedi is far more overt than in Nosferatu. The film deals with the intertwining effects that cats
The book Animal Farm by George Orwell, is an allegory for the Russian Revolution. One allegory can be seen through Czar Nicholas II, who represents Mr.Jones. In Animal Farm the animals defeat and overthrow Mr.Jones, a bad farmer who mistreats his animals. The animals try to recover from the horrible reign of Mr.Jones, and the story is about how they live after overthrowing the farmer. Czar Nicholas II and Mr.Jones both struggled with their subjects and eventually were not fit to be a leader anymore so lost the right.
Animal Farm by George Orwell and The Lives of Others by Florian von Donnersmarck have highlighted the dangers inherent in a Totalitarian society by using stylistic features. The stylistic features used include, symbolism of art, and themes of corruption and hope. Animal Farm is an allegory for communism, specifically the 1917 Russian Revolution the Stalinist era of the Soviet Union and reflects on many of the events that lead up to the revolt. The Lives of Others is an allegory for socialism, specifically the German Democratic Republic during the Second World War. And although both focus on different times, both Orwell and Donnersmarck have used the power of artistic expression in their respective works.
Human beings are considered to be the greatest creations that were given knowledge, skills and power to rule over the entire planet. However, at the same time, their relationship with other animals and its implications in human civilization cannot be denied. Historically, it is proven that for thousands of years, human beings have developed close contact with animals who were their means of living and at the same time often, great companions. Considering the great significance of animals in the lives of human beings, often their relationships were portrayed in literature by authors. It was meant to help the global community to have a clear understanding of the impact that animals have in the lives of human beings which is very much significant.
Power corrupts sometimes. It corrupts sometimes because in the book man is what corrupts because in chapter one old major said ," Man is the only creature that consumes without producing." in other words it is saying the man (people) take but at the same time they are not thank full for what they take because the animal

Allegory can help us to understand people and the events in the world more clearly through a variety of allegorical conventions and devices. While there are a great number of these allegorical conventions, in the end they all help make things easier to understand, whether it be by doing things such as bringing larger, more complex events down onto a smaller scale, or by making it more obvious to the viewers what the issues it is addressing are. This can clearly be seen in George Orwell’s Animal Farm, which is a political satire about Orwell’s views on why the Russian Revolution hurt the country more than helped it. In his book, Orwell makes use of allegory and its conventions in order to make it easier for his audience to understand the issues
Just like Yavanna's words of defending nature and punishing wrongs, the Ents are roused by the mistreatment of the trees and march upon Isengard to take on Saruman. They destroy Saruman's dam in the River Isen, subsequently putting out his forging fires. I find it imperative to take note that characters who love and respect trees and nature are on the side of good; those who cause harm to the trees of Middle Earth are on the side of evil and typically do so for the sake of industry. Typically peaceful and wise, not very drawn to adventures or wars, if they are roused they can be terrible and they will fight fearlessly to protect the trees and forests. So it was in the War of the Ring, where the least expected stroke that fell on Saruman was given by the Ents who flooded Isengard and revenged their dead kin, trees that Saruman had fallen and thrown into the fires of Isengard.
What is the definition of a good novel? Opinions on this question may differ, but there are many things that good novels have in common. Most importantly, the reader must enjoy the novel. When I use the word enjoy, I don’t necessarily mean that it should make the reader ‘happy’ or ‘joyful’. The novel should give the reader a valuable or worthwhile experience. Many good novels often address topics that relate to our own reality. In George Orwell’s Animal Farm, one of the main focuses is on power and corruption.
Animal Farm is almost a direct parallel to Russia during the time of World War I through World War II. The characters all have real life counterparts that are easily seen. The events are also all real and conveyed in the novel in an easily understood way. The novel creates a new way to look at the events that transpired during this time period and allows people to really understand what happened. In Animal Farm, George Orwell employs many symbols to convey the parallelism between the novel and World War I and World War II in Russia.

Everyday symbols can be found almost anywhere. In the novel, Animal Farm by George Orwell, symbols are ubiquitous. Three of the major symbols in Animal Farm are the windmill, Animalism, and the pig named Napoleon. A line from the text reads, “All animals are equal, but some are more equal than others” (Orwell #). This proves the allegory of the story, which is that the whole book represents communism in the Russian Revolution. Orwell carefully embodied small symbols that added to the effect of the biggest one. How he intricately paints the picture is how an artist paints a portrait, including all the smallest details, in the case of Animal Farm it would be down to the smallest symbols.
Would you be willing change your values in order to gain power?

His ambition and desire for power leads him down a dark path that leads to his downfall. There are many themes developed throughout Macbeth, the main theme being ambition as evil. The most dominant motif in developing this theme is prophecy because of what this prophecy causes Macbeth to do.
