Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to explore in depth the narrative relationships in George Orwell's classic work Animal Farm. By analyzing the novel's narrative structure, character setting, plot development, theme and symbolism, as well as narrative technique and language style from multiple perspectives, it reveals the profound political and social allegory behind the work, analyses the methods of global analyze and micro analyze in the novel, further analyses the novel's writing characteristics, and discusses the wonderful use of these coherent relationships and rhetorical techniques in the novel. An analysis of the narrative relationships in Animal Farm not only reveals the profound political and social allegory of the work, but also demonstrates author George Orwell's remarkable literary talent and profound insight. By analysing various aspects of narrative structure, character setting, plot development, theme and symbolism, as well as narrative technique and language style, this paper provides readers with a comprehensive and in-depth understanding of Animal Farm.
