Allegory

Short Note- Allegory

An Allegory is a story or description in prose or verse with double meaning– a primary or surface meaning; and the secondary or under the surface meaning. The secondary meaning may be moral, religious, political, social or satiric. In allegory the characters are often
personifications of such abstractions as greed, envy, hope, charity, fortitude etc.

‘Animal Farm’ written by George Orwell is a great example of Allegory in literature. Here, the animals symbolize the different sections of Russian society, where pigs represent the people who came to power after the time of the revolution. On the other hand, the horse represents the laborer class and the owner of the farm symbolizes the overthrown Tsar Nicholas II.
