Question

WHAT ROLE DOES FEAR PLAY IN LORD OF THE FLIES? my question is due tomorrow morning help plz plz plz

Answer 1

The fear of the unknown can be a powerful force, which can turn you to either insight or hysteria.

This is represented on the Beast - The evil residing within everyone, the dark side of human nature

The Lord of the Flies basically confirms to Simon that the Beast really is "inside" everyone, but says that everyone would rather have fun than worry about anything else. The threat of being killed clearly foreshadows the ending of Simon's life.

Answer 2
