Answer:

George Orwell’s Shooting an Elephant talks about how imperialism and colonialism negatively affected both the oppressed and the oppressors, albeit in different ways. In the first few lines of the story, the narrator acknowledges the fact that that the British rule over the Burmese people had made them bear deep and strong anti-European sentiments. The narrator is also aware that the local people of Burma hate him, and this makes him sad and uncomfortable.

Answer:

The petty ways in which the Burmans give vent to their anti- European feelings was by hunting elephants.

Explanation:

  • Orwell claims that if the elephant stomped him to death, onlookers would laugh at him, and "that would never do."
  • He is so forced to slay the elephant, which is now content.
  • Orwell's fear of humiliation may be seen as the driving force behind the larger British colonial enterprise, similar to how the elephant in the essay can be seen as a representation of Burmese society.
  • In order to maintain his good reputation, the imperial police officer is prepared to put aside his moral compass and play the oppressor and dictator.
  • One of the main motivations in Orwell's article is the dread of humiliation.
  • The taunts that were hooted after me while I was at a safe distance and the sneering yellow faces of young guys that I encountered everywhere eventually became quite annoying to me.
  • The worst of all was the young Buddhist priests.
  • Numerous thousands of people lived in the town, and all they seemed to do was stand on street corners and boo visitors from Europe.
