Old Major

An anthropomorphic character is one which displays the characteristics of a human, even though he is not. In Animal Farm, Old Major is a pig, but he displays characteristics that belong only to humans. He is aware of how miserable the animals' lives are, and how the farmer profits from this misery. He also dreams of a rebellion that will allow them to change their lives.

the excerpt from chapter 2 of "animal farm", by george orwell that is an example of foreshadowing is "these three (snowball, napoleon, and squealer) had elaborated old major's teachings into a complete system of thought to which they gave the name of animalism." animal farm is an allegory of how czarist russia developed into communist russia with all its corruption. old major's teachings represent marx's theories turned into communism, animalism, by the three pigs. this foreshadows the oppression and corruption that will follow this revolt.
