Which detail best shapes and refines the central idea? Dictatorships
by Hal Marcovitz
(excerpt from "The Rise of Julius Caesar")
As Caesar made his way back to Rome, the Senate ordered him to disband his army. Caesar refused. Instead, on January 10 in 49 BCE, Caesar
led his army in an attack on Rome. As his army crossed the Rubicon River to reenter Italy, Caesar is said to have remarked, "Let the dice fly
high"
Caesar's ploy was not much of a gamble. His army easily swept aside his enemies, including his one-time ally, Pompey. Caesar marched into the
city and declared himself dictator. After another four years of warfare in which he pursued his enemies across Europe and Africa, Caesar
returned to Rome. He found the once-deflant senate now willing to bow down to his authoritarian power. The Roman senators elected Caesar
dictator for life, fearing for their careers and their lives if they did not. Observing how the Roman republic, which had endured for some five
centuries, had now crumbled beneath the feet of a dictator, the ancient Roman historian Applan lamented, "The people hoped that (Caesar]
would also give them back democracy, just as Sulla had done, who had achieved a position of equal power. However, they were disappointed in
this."

Read the passage from animal farm. "that was part of the arrangement! " cried squealer. "jones's shot only grazed him. i could show you this in his own writing, if you were able to read it. the plot was for snowball, at the critical moment, to give the signal for flight and leave the field to the enemy. and he very nearly succeeded—i will even say, comrades, he would have succeeded if it had not been for our heroic leader, comrade napoleon. do you not remember how, just at the moment when jones and his men had got inside the yard, snowball suddenly turned and fled, and many animals followed him? and do you not remember, too, that it was just at that moment, when panic was spreading and all seemed lost, that comrade napoleon sprang forward with a cry of 'death to humanity! ' and sank his teeth in jones's leg? surely you remember that, comrades? " exclaimed squealer, frisking from side to side. now when squealer described the scene so graphically, it seemed to the animals that they did remember it. at any rate, they remembered that at the critical moment of the battle snowball had turned to flee. but boxer was still a little uneasy. how does the characterization of squealer support the author’s purpose? squealer's dramatic accusations draw parallels between him and stalin’s propagandists. squealer's uncertainty shows that he is not a reliable ally of napoleon and is ineffective with messaging. squealer's ability to get the animals to listen to him shows that any animal can rise to be a leader in time. squealer's humble interactions with the animals reflect the importance of equality and cooperation.
