Then she decides to venture answering the question. "Perhaps Professor it may have been more aimed at the state the Muggle World was in Orwell's time, more than it is today. Maybe he wanted to show to his audience the way politics and people in power oppressed those who were at lower levels in society than they were, and how there was the lack of free speech and the ability to express one's ideas, unless one was in a high level of society." "Very good. 5 points to Ravenclaw." Speaking broadly, she added, "It is important to remember, class, that literature is open to many interpretations. Therefore, if someone says something you do not agree with, feel free to debate the matter."
Going back to the subject, she questioned, "So, given that information, what do you think his message was, Cherry? To embrace dictatorship or to challenge authority?"
