He can catch his own pigs. Anyone who wants to hunt when I do can come too.” Being angered because Jack’s tribe stole Piggy’s spectacles and because no one was listening, Piggy goes off to Jack’s side of the island with Ralph and the twins to show who’s boss around here and to retrieve his glasses. Once arriving there, Jack and Ralph have a mini battle. As this goes on, Roger tries to interfere, and ends up killing Piggy with an extremely large boulder. Piggy’s death signifies that all intelligence on the island has ended.
He is resentful of the success of others, and has attitude problems. He is the first to kill the chickens too, just like Jack killing the pigs. After Jack and a couple other people got done beating up Roger, acting like he was a pig, he then said “That was a good game.” (115). Jack did not care about others, he only cared about himself. Greg from Kid Nation was just like that, after he found out that they gave a gold star to someone who the council thought did the finest, that’s all he wanted.
He thinks of building shelters to protect them and to start a fire for their rescue. He becomes friend with Piggy, the fat boy that receives taunts and teases from the other boy, and gets used to rely on Piggy's intellectual reasoning. Ralph is brave when the occasion presents it, but he really miss for the secure world of adults, especially when order starts to break down on the island. He dreams about a rescue and insists that the signal fire always has to burn so that they can be seen. Ralph considers that the main reason for the disorder on the island is Jack, the antagonist and representation of evil in the novel.
Since the boys are still relatively young when they crash on the island they lack a certain level of adult maturity; without any sort of adult authority figure, they are more inclined to be out of control. One thing Simon realizes towards the end of the novel is that the beast and the fear and evil it represents is actually a product of the boys’ own minds. This shows that it is not evil which is inside them, but a manufactured evil and fear towards a figure - in this case the “beast”. At the end of the day, they are still boys and the evil which Golding talks about is really just the boys’ minds corrupted by the island and the beast inside them. At the beginning of the novel the boys assemble and decide on the sort of society they want to build.
The IF lied to him and told him that it was just a game when it was not. He had been fighting the buggers since he had gotten to battle school. In a way Ender kind of is a killer and he feels like it sometimes. Ender feels that he is a killer, although he never wants to kill anyone. He accidently killed Stilson in the beginning of the book without knowing until chapter 15, because he kicked him so many times.
In Lord of the Flies, a novel by William Golding, a group of young English boys crash land their plane on an uncharted island during World War II. The boys attempt to create an organized society, but it deteriorates as their primal, savage instincts start to consume them. Seemingly irrelevant objects actually represent significant concepts. When freed from the bonds and expectations of society, their true human nature reveals itself. The beast, the conch shell, and the signal fire all epitomize this theme.
Unlike Ralph's peaceful, democratic leadership, Jack believes in violence as a way to rule. Jack uses anarchism, the absence of government, as his method of winning over the boys and convincing them to leave Ralph. When Jack is originally unsuccessful as convincing the boys to convert over to his own methods, he resorts to savagery in order to become successful in gaining power and sovereignty over the boys. Jack's disrespect, desire to hunt, and violent tendencies are all ways in which he gains and maintains power over the converted boys. Most importantly, Jack's disrespect towards the other boys makes him fearful to the others, and therefore the boys feel obligated to follow his orders if they want to avoid consequences.
Chaos and savagery come as a result of men trying to find pleasure without making sacrifices. Order are situations in which humans are forced to suppress their instincts and follow rules to attain their goals. 4D. The subject ive chosen is sort of a broad idea that can be grasped by looking deeper into the idea. By looking at the fact that Golding is trying to explain that all humans are evil can tie into the Chaos on the island.
Jack never once asked Piggy for his ‘specs’ and every time had attempted and succeeded in taking them. Another example is when Jack and his tribe of savages hunt down Ralph without remorse or a second thought to their actions. They hunt him because Jack wanted him out of the way so he himself could become chief, Roger also said “See? I told you-he’s dangerous” (216). Ralph was only fighting back in self-defence but also had happened to injure one of the savages in his attempts to elude the boys.
The beautiful island becomes a hell at the end of the novel. Finally, when Ralph is escaping from the hunting of other boys, he is saved by a navy officer who takes all boys back to the ship. Towards the end of the last chapter, the passage "Ralph wept for the end of innocence, the darkness of man' heart, and the fall through the air of his true, wise friend called Piggy" demonstrates the main theme of this novel: man is evil by nature. The three things that Ralph weeps for are the lessons he has on this island: innocent boys become savage; all human beings have evil deep inside their hearts and the fall of science and rationality before the evil of human. These three issues are developed throughout the whole novel with this passage as the conclusion of the main theme - human beings are evil by nature.
