Nature Of Man Lord Of The Flies
1,174 words
Through his writing in the book Lord of the Flies,
William Golding's view on nature is not as in the
plant and tree kind of nature, but on the nature
of man at a young age of life. Golding is trying
to portray what instincts and desires are like at
an early time in a man's life when there are no
adults around to help shape those feelings to
fit-in with the main stream society that people
live in everyday. The nature of man is any and all
of the instincts and desires of a person or

Two unassociated books, Lord of the Flies and
Animal Farm, come together in a certain way to
show the quest for leadership among humans. George

World War Ii Jack Tribe

1. After Simon is killed, the next paragraph
begins, "The clouds open and let the rain down
like a waterfall" When the boys kill Simon they
not only kill him and spirituality, but what they
perceive to be the beast. Because the beast was
created by them and embodied all of their evils,
one of its interpretations can be as mankind's
sin. Simon is very similar to Jesus in this book.
The Roman's ruled the world during Jesus' life,
and now a similar bloodthirsty society rules the

Although George Braque (May 13, 1882 Aug. 31,
1963) was one of the most influential painters of
the twentieth century his name is all but
forgotten. He has received little credit for his
efforts towards the creation of analytic cubism.
Many art historians believe that his prestigious
role as father of analytic cubism was cut short
because of Picasso's fame. Many arguments have
arisen asking the question: Who is the father of
cubism? There is no doubt that Picasso started the

These two texts are examples of allegories. On the
surface they are both exiting adventure stories
about people being stranded on desert islands.

moral messages. In Lord of the Flies Golding
explores the theory of atavism, that is whether
the boys (representing human kind) are naturally
evil but have had their nature stifled by the
ritual of society, and whether when society is
left behind people will naturally decent into
savagery and malevolence. I...
