Allegory, fable, satire
Animal Farm by George Orwell is an allegorical fable and satire that expands on the traditional animal fable form by using farm animals to represent different types of people and convey a moral message about communism and totalitarianism. As an allegory, each character symbolizes something else with the animals standing for types of people or ideas, while the plot comments on human nature and behavior. Orwell also uses satire through ridicule to shed light on political events and make a commentary.
