Compare and Contrast Theme from "Lord of the
Flies" and "The Beach" Lord of the Flies by
William Golding and The Beach by Alex Garland both
encompass a wide array of interesting themes.
However, of all those themes, one definitely
stands out: the authors illustrate how humans,
when forced to survive on their own, revert back
to their basic animal instincts. They show how
human beings do all kinds of wrongful things with
one sole goal to survive whatever it takes.
However, while Golding in his wo...

Brave New World Mother Or Father
3,232 words
Aldous Huxley s Brave New World, was a very odd
book. It portrays many of the moral dilemmas that
we now are approaching in our society. I really
enjoyed the book, it had just enough science
fiction content to keep the reader interested in
the book. It also had a very interpretive content
in it to mesmerize, and elude the reader. I
related myself to, two of the characters. During
the opening quarter of the book, I related Bernard
Marx to me. I am much different from the average
teenager, I am so...

Savages Are Taught Savages Are Also Taught John

Sometimes very advanced societies overlook the
necessities of the individual. In the book Brave
New World, Aldous Huxley creates two distinct
societies: the Savages and the Fordian's. The
Fordian's are technologically sophisticated,

Lord Of The Flies Fear Of Losing
1,044 words
A running theme in Lord of the Flies is that man
is savage at heart, always ultimately reverting
back to an evil and primitive nature. The cycle of
mans rise to power, or righteousness, and his
inevitable fall from grace is an important point
that book proves again and again, often comparing
man with characters from the Bible to give a more
vivid picture of his descent. Lord Of The Flies

Mustapha Mond Puts Fordian Society Utopian John

Brave New World illustrates a world where
everything that is morally right in our society,
is wrong. Monogamy is sinful, massive orgies are
not. Serious thinking is unnecessary because life
has already been planned out. Hardships and stress
can be solved with a few tablets of soma. This is
the world which John Savage and others in the
novel foolishly came to hate. All of the things
that John Savage desires are the things that make
our society unstable. Huxley uses John Savage to

Lord Of The Flies Civilized Behaviour
623 words
The novel Lord Of The Flies bases itself on
civilized and savage behaviour. Civilized
behaviour means to be aware of your surroundings
and to care for them and to sacrifice certain
pleasures to attain them, and to help others. When
hearing the word savage one thinks of cavemen
squatting and gnawing at raw meat right off of the
bone. In a way that stereotype was satisfied in
this novel. Savage behaviour might be best
described as the act of living like primitive
animals who dont care for others a...

individuals when they are immature and without an
overlooking authority. The author of the novel,

accounts for the English, cultured characters in
the novel. After studying science at Oxford
University for two years, he changed his emphasis
