Irresponsible – no sense that he actually runs the farm | “too drunk to remember””drew himself a last glass of beer” “And didn’t come back until mid-day Sunday. |
Seen as a villain by the animals – importance of understanding that Orwell sometimes presents events from the animals’ perpectives.Mr Jones represents man. | “You wouldn’t want Jones to come back would you?” “Man is the only real enemy we have” |
Cause of rebellion – therefore he is the catalyst that allows the key incidents / themes to begin. | “Man is the only real enemy we have. Remove Man from the scene and the root cause of hunger and overwork is abolished forever.” |
