Answer 1

Answer 2

Symbolism played an important part in the development of story. This narrative technique is used to give a significance to certain people or objects, which represent some other figure. The following table lists many of the examples of symbolism used throughout Golding's book.

Object/Character Represents
Piggy (and Glasses) Clear-sightedness, intelligence. Their state represents the status of social order.
Ralph, The Conch Democracy, Order
Simon Pure Goodness, "Christ Figure"
Roger Evil, Satan
Jack Savagery, Anarchy
The Island A microcosm representing the world
The "Scar" Man's destruction, destructive forces
The Beast The evil residing within everyone, the dark side of human nature.
Lord of the Flies The Devil, great danger or evil
There are many other aspects in the story that may be considered symbolism, but the several above are probably the most significant. Another good example of symbolism, brought to my attention by a site visitor, is the shape of the island. The boat shape of the island is an ancient symbol of civilization. The water current around the island seems to be "flowing backwards," giving the subtle impression that civilization may be going backwards for the island or its inhabitants. Additionally, another reader pointed out that Jack could also represent Communism or Fascism. Golding was influenced by events during the time period that the book was written, which was around World War II.

Answer 3

It is a parody of what the author saw going on in his government at the time . . .

But any ways . . .

Boys crash on island. Pilot dies.

They make fire.
Find food.
Fracture into two warring groups.
Go nuts.
Get saved.

The end . . .

Perhaps a more specific question is in order here?
