Jack 's Internal And Social Conflicts

Lord of the Flies, written by William Golding, has four very important dynamic characters. A dynamic character is a character that develops and grows during the course of the story. Ralph, Jack, Piggy, and Simon are four dynamic characters in Lord of the Flies that adapt to their new lifestyles in different ways. Jack is a very important dynamic character in Lord of the Flies because he goes through the most changes during the novel. While on the island, Jack has many life experiences that change him forever. Jack never thought he would live his life the way he is living his life in the island. Jack’s authoritative figure, savage-like/instinctual behavior, and violence are three qualities that make Jack a dynamic character.

Many of the boys want to have fun and see Jack's hunting as the fun

A good leader is one who knows how to lead with control and has strong leader characteristics. In the novel Lord of the Flies by William Golding, some readers support the fact that Jack was a better leader than Ralph, but others feel that Ralph was the better leader. Although many supporters feel that Ralph is the best leader, it is evident that Jack is the better leader because he can effortlessly control the group on the island.

“Jack made a rush and stabbed at Ralph’s chest with his spear. Ralph sensed the position of the weapon from the glimpse he caught of Jack’s arm and put the thrust aside with his own butt. Then he brought the end round and caught Jack a stinger across the ear. The were chest to chest, breathing fiercely, pushing and glaring.”(196). Two strong types of leadership can lead to devastating outcomes. This is shown in William Golding’s Lord of the Flies. Ralph and Jack have two very different types of leadership that are at different ends of the spectrum. The qualities of Ralph and Jack are different, Jack’s beliefs contrast those of Ralph, and the styles of leadership that Ralph and Jack use are as different as night and day. To begin, it takes

When I hear the words “Jack Tales” I think of the tale Jack and the Beanstalk. Where Jack sales his cow for magic beans. Then, his mom throws them out the window and a magic beanstalk through the night. Jack decided to climb the beanstalk several time and while up there he would take stuff from the giant while he was asleep. When Jack tried to steal a magical harm, the giant woke up. Jack rans down the beanstalk with the giant behind him. When he got to the bottom he took his ax and cut down the beanstalk. The giant being on the beanstalk when Jack did this fell down and hit the ground dying.

Now that Kate was on the outskirts of the airport hanger and away from the strange glowing force field, still visible in the distance. The situation felt surreal, and Kate wondered if this was just a dream. Presently, she was cognizant that there was something foreign in the brisk early morning air, glittering like snow, feeling like sand as the tiny flecks dusted her skin. The bulldog nudging and licking Kate's hand forced reality back. In her peripheral, Kate observed Mr.Jacks emerge from the nearby hedgerow." I was so hopeful that my message would be discovered by someone." Kate cried out.

The conflicts that change people the most are both things that you struggle with either against yourself or against other people. In the book Lord of the Flies, being stranded on an Island is very difficult for a number reasons. Not the harshness of the island, but things about who you are. On the island, if you don’t defeat yourself, then the island will most definitely defeat you, like what happen to Jack.

The children landed uncharted island far from any semblance of police, parents, or even teachers. The island was almost like the “Neverland” that Disney taught us about years ago, but without Tinkerbell and a magical home with all their needs. Jack and the children in this adventure were in a heap of trouble. They were many, some smaller and some bigger (littleuns and bigguns). These kids had to organize themselves into some sort of unit, to more efficiently find a way home. That is where the trouble begins. When one or more humans come together, a hierarchy is always established. Similar to when one goes to a restaurant and the waitress only addresses our father for the majority of the tables decisions. When this hierarchy forms, the decisions this leader takes will always be classified as good or evil, and the society will be judged by the character at their forefront. In William Golding’s novel “Lord of The Flies”, Jack Merridew is the character that takes leadership in the society and proves humanity is inherently evil by demonstrating human’s: selfish tendencies, competitive nature, and hopelessness.

Golding uses symbols, imagery, and diction to delineate Jack’s evolution into savagery. When he first hunts for a pig, and hesitates, unable to kill it the boys “[Know] very well why [Jack] hadn’t: because of the enormity of the knife descending and cutting into living flesh; because of the unbearable blood”(31). At this time, Jack does not possess the mental strength, as he comes from a civilization where violence is unacceptable. He is not accustomed to inflicting harm on another living creature. Furthermore, the “unbearable blood” emphasizes his ties to civilization as he along with most other civil people would not take the sight of blood calmly. By the time Jack's second pig hunt occurs, his attitude towards violence has changed greatly: “His

Jack is aggressive with the other boys on the island. Jack is aggressive with the boys when he gets mad. The hunters “drove Jack to violence.” Jack then “took a step, and able at last to hit someone, struck his fist into Piggy’s stomach” (Golding 71). Jack was mad at the hunters, so he took it out on Piggy. Robert says Jack is “going to beat Wilfred.” The boys have no idea what for. Robert says Jack, “got angry and made us tie up Wilfred up for no reason just because he got angry. Jack did the same thing with Piggy.

Chuck Palahniuk’s Fight Club is the story of a man struggling to find himself. The main character, a nameless narrator, is clearly unhappy with his life. He obsessively fakes diseases and attends support group sessions as a way to deal with his hopelessness. Obsessive behaviors often lead to unfavorable events if they are interrupted (Lizardo). Just as it seems the support groups have brought him to a form of equilibrium, they are interrupted by a fellow faker. His inability to treat his restlessness by attending these support groups drives the narrator to shocking extremes.

1. The genre of "How Jack Went to Seek His Fortune" can be classified as a fairytale.

This is a story about a young fellow named Jack, who wasn’t a lot older than you when this happened. Now Jack lived with his mother and daddy on a small farm, but they were in bad shape. The crops didn’t make good that year, Jack’s daddy was having to go further and further to find work and do a little hunting so they’d have something to eat. Jack decided that he was big enough to go out and get a job so he could help buy food for his family. So Jack’s mother packed him some food to take, (Jack was especially fond of peanut butter and jelly sandwiches), gave him a big hug and sent him out the door with prayers for his safety. Jack traveled down the road for almost a week, his peanut butter and jelly sandwiches were all gone, and he was really getting hungry when he saw a great big farm off to the side of the road. He thought surely they’d give him something to eat, even if it was just some apples or carrots. So Jack went up to the house and knocked on the door. A really kind looking man came to the door and saw how pitifully hungry Jack looked and took him inside for lunch. Now the farmer was a really nice man, but his wife was mean. She didn’t like sharing their food with anyone and she really didn’t like Jack. She was sure he’d steal something so she decided she had to get rid of him. But the farmer offered Jack a job on the farm, if he’d take care of the animals. So Jack went out and fed the pigs, and the cows, and the chickens and worked as
