Answer: It reveals Ahab’s commitment to his mission for revenge.

In this passage, the speaker is describing the impact that Ahab caused when meeting him for the first time. He describes his white, whalebone leg, and how he fashioned it out of a sperm whale's jaw. He also describes how there was an auger hole on the deck, upon which Ahab would steady his leg. He would stand there and look out beyond the prow for hours on end. The speaker also describes his attitude of determination and wilfullness. All of these elements contribute to showing how commited Ahab was to his mission.

Diano4ka-milaya [45]

A current theme that is portrayed in "Animal Farm" is that physical force without political consciousness means nothing.

George Orwell got the idea for his dystopian fable (Animal Farm) after realizing that humans are capable of taming and commanding animals because they, although stronger, are not aware that they are being dominated, and that a similar relationship was established between bosses and the proletariat.

That is to say, it used the very principle of the fable, the inversion between the human and animal roles, as a parallel to the organization of labor in capitalist society, to demonstrate that the relations of power that would be formed among the proletarians themselves after the revolution could misrepresent the socialist ideal.
