The chapter begins with the death of Old Major, whose revolutionary ideas inspire the more intelligent animals on the farm, particularly the pigs, to prepare for an eventual rebellion against their human master, Mr. Jones. The pigs, led by Snowball and Napoleon, take charge of organizing and educating the other animals, developing Major’s teachings into a system called Animalism. Despite initial apathy and skepticism, they hold secret meetings to spread their ideology, though they face resistance from…-

The animals' confusion underscores their vulnerability to…-

Chapter 1 – “Uncle Sam”
Chapter 1 - "Uncle Sam" begins with an unexpected legacy born from an ordinary act: the naming of a hill and town in upstate New York. The choice of “Troy” and “Mount Ida,” though perhaps intended to summon classical grandeur, would later become the quiet backdrop for a national icon’s origin. Amid the daily rhythms of early 19th-century life, Samuel Wilson, a local man known for his cheer and generosity, built more than a business—he built trust. Children called him “Uncle Sam” with…-

Chapter 2 – Domestic Despots
Chapter 2 - Domestic Despots explores the strange but familiar reality where dogs, rather than humans, appear to be in charge of the household. Within these homes, the owners are not masters but servants—fetching, feeding, and fussing at the slightest whim of a pawed commander. The dog’s comfort becomes paramount, its presence dictating where one sits, how loudly one speaks, and whether one travels at all. Vacations are shortened or skipped altogether, dinner menus are altered, and furniture becomes…-

Chapter 3 - Cyrano, Rostand, Coquelin begins with a reflection on how true brilliance can withstand flawed translation, much like fine wine still satisfying even in a cracked glass. When Cyrano de Bergerac crossed into English, its wit, charm, and emotional depth refused to be dulled. Rostand’s voice remained intact, thanks in part to Richard Mansfield’s resolve to keep the production honest to the original. Despite the translator’s limitations, the play retained its soul—an achievement owed not…

Chapter 4 – Machine-made Men
Chapter 4 - Machine-made Men opens with a moment both humorous and frustrating: a personal-looking letter turns out to be nothing more than a printed pitch for suspenders and disposable collars. That small deception sparks a larger reflection on how daily life has been taken over by a flood of inventions, most of them unnecessary. These gadgets, born from a culture addicted to novelty, promise efficiency but deliver only confusion. Instead of simplifying life, they overcomplicate it with moving parts,…-
