Geography In Lord Of The Flies

When the boys first got on the island they were doing good. They picked a leader, they had rules and they were doing pretty. Unit Jack wanted to be leader and he left the tribe. So that made other kids leave and join his tribe which started a conflict. That ends with them losing their innocence and experiencing the darkness of the man ‘s heart.

A group of schoolboys have been stranded on an uncharted island. With no adults, Ralph and Jack begin competing for the title of ultimate leader of the newly, unstable tribe. They must work to survive on the island, and find a way off of it, alive. Each boy tries to govern the tribe their own way, but their differing leadership styles tear the tribe apart. Throughout the book, Ralph proves that he is the better leader through his words and actions.

One of the first questions a writer must ask is “Where does this story take place?” If the writer wanted to write a book about eskimos, he probably should not place the story in Africa, just as if William Golding wanted to write about a group of boys surviving on their own in a secluded area, he probably should not have chosen Paris, or New York, where there is a mass of people. Instead, Golding chose an uninhabited island located somewhere in the vast South Pacific Ocean, far from any civilization. However, this decision was not just solely based on its isolation; Many more important factors from the location come in play with Lord of the Flies’ plot.

In the end, all the boys learn a lesson. They had many struggles and troubles of staying together as a group. Jack and his hunting group ended up setting the whole island on fire. “ The fire was a big one and the drum-roll that he has thought was left so far behind was nearer. Couldn't a fire outrun a galloping horse?” ( Chapter 12, Page 278) The horrific fire caught the attention of a naval vessel passing by the island. Ralph collapses in exhaustion, but when he wakes up, he sees a British naval officer right over him.

By disobeying Ralph’s rules, Jack is trying to weaken the rules. Jack still has an effect on the boys, and his breaking of rules weakens the their will to follow them. In a later meeting, Jack claims that Ralph “isn’t a proper chief” and that “[he’s] going off by [himself].” Jack’s departure weakens Ralph’s tribe, since the choir has been with Jack before the crash on the island, and showed loyalty to him on the island. This results in a majority of the boys abandon Ralph for Jack. Some of the non-choir boys go off with Jack’s tribe, because of the beast they want protection from. They believe his hunters will supply that. Jack is no longer under control, but is now in control. Jack’s department of the tribe, and weakening of the boy’s opinion on Ralph leads to his desire for power being satisfied.

The story took place during a nuclear war and that the boys’ plane was attacked while they were being evacuated and they crash into an island. It was later found out that there were no adults present in the island but only boys ages six to twelve; this was informed by a boy named Piggy. Ralph, the protagonist, was voted to be chief of the group despite Jack’s, the antagonist, request to be chief himself. To make a compromise, Jack was chosen to be leader of the hunters. As the boys travel around the island to get a better idea of their surroundings, it was decided that they should make a signal fire in case a ship comes by to ensure their rescue. When Ralph, Jack, and another boy named Simon comes back from their journey, a boy mentions a beast being on the loose in the island and this brought fear into the boys. The conflict between Ralph and Jack for leadership starts from both of their priorities being that they build a signal fire to be rescued or that they should hunt for food to survive, respectfully. This was proven when there was a ship passing by and that the signal was burned out because of the neglect to keep the fire going. This was due to Jack and his hunters focusing more on hunter for food, which they are successful, instead of ensuring their chances of being rescued. Their conflict intensifies due to the fear of the beast. This was later proven when the boys mistaken a deceased man on a parachute to be the beast and they all were on a hunt for it. Simon was the only one who found out that there was no actual beast but the beast was in the boys themselves. He tried to tell the rest of the boys but he was killed by them in the process. Tensions are still high between Ralph and Jack to the point that they separate themselves from each other and majority of the boys join Jack’s tribe. Ralph, Piggy,

In the beginning of the novel, the boys are brought together by the sound of the conch. When they were all together they choose Ralph as their chief, and established rules that they could abide by so that they have a chance to survive and get off the island. As the novel continues on the boys are working together and everything is fine, but one of the littleuns brings up the point of their being a "beastly like monster" this causes fear to arise in the boys, work to stop being done, and also causes Jack to say that his hunters and him will kill the beast if there is one because they don 't fear anything. Later on, Jack lets his Id take over him and causes the group of boys to physically split into two different tribes, "Hands up, whoever wants Ralph not to be chief." (Golding 127) He says this because he wants to have all power

The isolation that comes with crashing on a deserted island affects all the characters, seen most dramatically through Jack. Being brought into this setting transforms the civilized choir leader into a savage hunter and murderer who’s given into his inner demons. When the boys first crash land onto the island, they were proper English schoolboys. Due to the separation from society, however, the boys start to regress, giving in to their more animalistic instincts. Jack starts off as the ‘‘chapter chorister and head boy’” who tries to take leadership of the tribe the boys form; he fails to do so, turning him away from order and reason (Golding 22). He neglects his duties and turns his attention to hunting the native pigs, prompting him to let the fire, their gateway back to society, go out; this pits Ralph against Jack, who represent civilization and savagery

Jack insists that since Ralph had never hunted and provided meat for the boy’s he shouldn’t be chief; the other boy’s disagree, and, upset that he has not proven himself to the boys, says, "I'm not going to play any longer. Not with you… I'm going off by myself. He can catch his own pigs. Anyone who wants to hunt when I do can come too" (144). Jack then walks off, and many of the boys follow him and leave Ralph behind; in doing this, Jack takes a good portion of Ralph’s tribe, as well as much of Ralph’s dignity as a chief. Later, Jack names himself chief of the other group of boys. He uses his power to make rules, all of which establish that Jack’s side of the island is different from Ralph’s; "We'll hunt. I'm going to be chief… I say this. We aren't going to bother about the beast… And another thing. We shan't dream so much down here. This is near the end of the island" (146). In his anger, Jack created a society based on what children want instead of what adults need, which Ralph had. Jack has made himself the opposite of Ralph out of
