Napoleon and Snowball. By doing this, Napoleon receives the satisfaction in his competition with Snowball as the animals consider him as a better leader than
Snowball. Napoleon’s motivation is to pretend to be a good and wise leader who
cares about his dying citizen very much when he said that he sends the old and weakened Boxer to the hospital. He also has another motivation which is to toss
away Boxer who is no longer valuable for him to the house slaughterer. This action is intrinsic motivation. It is a pleasure for himself in doing this since
because of their stupidity, most of the animals believe that Napoleon stay in Boxer’s last moment until his last breath. The animals thought that Napoleon
cares about Boxer very much. Not only that, there is another satisfaction for Napoleon by tosses away Boxer from the farm since for Napoleon the old and
weakened Boxer is no more than a burden or responsibility for him. There is a relieve of pressure for him by remove one of his useless citizen out of the farm
2. Napoleon is Egoistic
Napoleon is proofed to be egoistic when he decides that those who are allowed to consume the milk and apples are pigs. His motivation in doing this is
to make sure that the pigs can enjoy the milk and apples by themselves. This is an extrinsic motivation since there some kind of rewards for Napoleon by doing this.
The rewards are the milk and apples that served only for the pigs. He also adjusts the rules in Animal Farm many times for the pigs’ benefits.
The first rule that he adjust is when he decides the farmhouse to be the home for the pigs. He also adjusts the rules by let the pigs make use of human’s utensils as
PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
well as sleeping in the beds. Another rule that he breaks is the prohibition to drink alcohol. Together with the pigs, he consumes the alcohols in the farm house that
makes them drunk. Napoleon and the other pigs also try to behave as humans by wearing dress and walk on their hind legs. This action is an extrinsic motivation
since he enjoys a lot of beneficial rewards for him and the pigs by adjust the rules of the farm.
Napoleon awards himself both “Animal Hero, First Class” and “Animal Hero, Second Class” medals. Actually, those who have the right to wear those
medals are Snowball, Boxer and the dead sheep who fought bravely at the Battle of the Cowshed. Napoleon wants the animals to consider him as a hero. This
action is an intrinsic motivation since by considered as a hero, he receives some kind of satisfaction.
3. Napoleon is Tyrannical
It is clear that Napoleon is a tyrant when he takes the property of the animals. Napoleon orders the hens to give up their eggs to be sold. There will be
no meal for those who reject his order while death is the answer for those who give some foods to the hens. His motivation in doing this is because he is unable
to find any other options to be traded for food supply with Whymper. The farm needs food supply to survive the awful season. Napoleon’s tyrant heart makes him
decide to sacrifice the hens’ property. This is an extrinsic motivation since he is the one who takes the pleasure by sacrifices the animals’ property.
