Critical writing about two books: Animal farm and the Island of Dr. Moreau
The assignment instructions given by professor:
The animals in Animal Farm (1945) adapted and became humanized (anthropomorphized), whereas the animals in the Island of Dr. Moreau (1896) were created through experimental procedures. Compare and contrast the ideas of sentient animals by looking at the differences and similarities in the books.
These two books were written between 7 and 12 decades ago, how are some of the ideas still relevant? Man’s technology has greatly progressed, instead of vivisection, scientists are gene splitting; could humanity’s new technology create smarter animals through experimental means such as cloning? Here is interesting web page that starts to discuss the ideas of human/animal hybridity. https://singularityhub.com/2019/08/13/wait-what-the-first-human-monkey-hybrid-embryo-was-just-created-in-china/. (Links to an external site.)
Given the outcome of the two novellas, should people question the ability to change the natural order?
Write a critical analysis that:
1. Takes an analytical look at the two books that we read.
2. Discusses the ideas of anthropomorphism in both books, and relate them to current society.
3. Make sure to use quotes from the texts read that support your ideas, make sure to properly cite the books as well as any outside sources.
I expect that your essay will be properly cited using good grammar and punctuation and is formatted properly, see above for example.
If you use any other sources aside from the book please list.
