The Lord of The Flies
|
|||
|
Journal I
|
|||
|
If I were among the boys on the island I would vote for Piggy as leader.
|
|||
|
Although he is not one of the bigger boys, and seems to be put down all the
|
|||
|
time, I think that he is the smartest. He would be able to think of ways to
|
|||
|
be saved.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The problem with having Piggy chosen as leader is that he is smaller,
|
|||
|
and is similar to an outcast. His ideas would not be taken seriously
|
|||
|
because of his age and size. If the bigger boys were to disagree with one
|
|||
|
of Piggy's ideas, they may take control, and cause corruption among the
|
|||
|
kids.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
I would not pick Ralph, because he seems as though he does not put much
|
|||
|
though into what he is doing. He also seems to be influenced easily by
|
|||
|
Piggy. Although his strength and age over- powers the others, Piggy's
|
|||
|
intelligence is by far greater than Ralph's.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Jack is similar to Ralph in his strength, but seems to have a totally
|
|||
|
different point about survival on the island. His points focus on the fact
|
|||
|
that they are going to stay there for a while, and need to hunt.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Simon is different than the others. He seems to have some common sense,
|
|||
|
but does not speak up. He is also one of the bigger kids, but does not have
|
|||
|
enough self confidence in himself to become a leader.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Overall Piggy would make an excellent leader, but his appearance and age
|
|||
|
would make the others questions his orders. Journal II
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Living on the island was an inner battle. Other boys on the island found
|
|||
|
it hard to obey my orders. One of the bigger boys, Jack, formed a hunting
|
|||
|
group.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
One day they went out on one of their trips searching for pig meat for
|
|||
|
the rest of us to eat. They took a while, and during their time gone, a
|
|||
|
ship was spotted off the coast of the island. All the kids became happy,
|
|||
|
knowing that they were going to be rescued. Even though the boat was
|
|||
|
nearing the island, something didn't feel right. It wasn't turning in any
|
|||
|
way to our fire that we built to signal the boat down. I then though for a
|
|||
|
moment and looked back to notice that the fire was out.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Once Jack returned, all happy of his findings, I began to question him
|
|||
|
about the fire. After he told him that he put out the fire, I lost my mind.
|
|||
|
Anger and frustration filled my body. I was thinking of attacking him, but
|
|||
|
realized that as leader of the group I could not loose spirit of us being
|
|||
|
found.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The decision on what we were going to do was a tough one, as all of the
|
|||
|
little kids became frightened of not being rescued. My decision was to
|
|||
|
start the fire once more, and build up the other's spirits of being found.

Journal IV
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Reflection: If the boys were girls
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
If the boys on the island were girls, I think that they would have not
|
|||
|
survived as long as the boys did. They probably would not have had as many
|
|||
|
conflicts with each other, but still there wouldn't be anyone to hunt for
|
|||
|
food, nor anyone to make shelters. Disadvantages
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The girls once finding each other upon the island would be more
|
|||
|
disorganized. Once hearing of the beast, all would probably not be brave
|
|||
|
enough to face such a monster. The attitudes of some of the younger
|
|||
|
children in the novel would probably be similar to the girls, this being
|
|||
|
that they would cry and put no effort into making fires, and building
|
|||
|
shelters.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
As girls are not as much equipped to camping, and living an outdoors
|
|||
|
style of life, they would be farther behind on making fires, and building
|
|||
|
shelters. Their strength and other physical abilities would be much slower
|
|||
|
than the boys.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Advantages
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Girls tend to stick together when working. This would be a great
|
|||
|
advantage over the boys. They would not kill each other, as Jack and Roger
|
|||
|
did to Piggy, and almost to Ralph. They would be more open with ideas, as
|
|||
|
they gossip more than boys. This would allow more ideas and thus lead to
|
|||
|
different possibilities.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Throughout the story, Jack and the other hunter's display cruelty to
|
|||
|
forms of life. Girls would probably not accept this, and would therefore be
|
|||
|
in not as much trouble.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
In all, I think that the girls would not have been saved as fast the
|
|||
|
boys were. Chances are that they would have not been able to start a fire.
|
|||
|
On the other hand, the girls would have not been in danger as much as the
|
|||
|
boys were, specifically Ralph. They would have stayed closer as a group,
|
|||
|
not being as wild as Jack and Roger were.

Journal III: Essay
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Question: Democracy is only as successful as the people who make it work.
|
|||
|
Discuss, with reference from the Lord of the Flies.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Since the beginning of creation, democracy has put people in higher
|
|||
|
states than others. In the novel "Lord of the Flies", William Golding
|
|||
|
emphasizes that everyone has a job to do in life. Some jobs are tough,
|
|||
|
while others may seem easy. By comparing Jack and Ralph, the fact that
|
|||
|
democracy is only as successful as the people who make it work will be
|
|||
|
proven.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Ralph is introduced in the story as one of the first characters. He is
|
|||
|
the one who organized the first meeting of all the survivors on the island.
|
|||
|
"But there was a stillness about Ralph as he sat that marked him out: there
|
|||
|
was his size, and attractive appearance; and most obscurely, yet most
|
|||
|
powerfully, there was the conch."
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
This quote describes clearly why Ralph was chosen leader; not because of
|
|||
|
his intelligence, but because of the fact that he had the conch. Throughout
|
|||
|
the story, Ralph tries to play the role of a leader, organizing the other
|
|||
|
boys. He knows that they need shelters to sleep, a fire to be found, and
|
|||
|
food to eat.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
By blowing the conch, Ralph quickly realizes that this is the easiest
|
|||
|
way to gain attention of the others. During his meetings, his power is
|
|||
|
quickly forgotten by many, as he does not have the intelligence to bring
|
|||
|
across points that the others need to realize. Ralph forgets what is to be
|
|||
|
said, and depends upon Piggy to back him up. With the aid of Piggy, who is
|
|||
|
despised by almost everyone, Jacks points are left unrecognized. As all of
|
|||
|
the other boys, including the little kids laugh at piggy's views.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Soon enough Jack, one of the bigger kids, decides to no longer listen to
|
|||
|
Ralph, and leads his own group to another part of the island. This proves
|
|||
|
that Ralph's leadership lacks points of interest among the others, as the
|
|||
|
boys become bored with the idea of working, having no fun.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Jack is a leader full of aggression. From the beginning of the novel,
|
|||
|
the readers find out Jack's point of view, as it does not change
|
|||
|
throughout; even under the leadership of Ralph. "Jack's voice went on,
|
|||
|
tremulous yet determined, pushing against the unco- operative silence.`He's
|
|||
|
like Piggy. He says things like Piggy. He isn't a proper chief'".
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
At this point, Jack revolts against Ralph's leadership, and forms his
|
|||
|
own group. From then on, Jack only gains power, as he proves to have his
|
|||
|
mind set. Hunting may be hard, but being fun, it attracts the others to
|
|||
|
Jack's group.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
As his group grows, Jack seems to gain more and more power, as he
|
|||
|
controls when, where, and why the others must leave. His leadership thus
|
|||
|
proves to be more effective than Ralph's was.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Jack and Ralph at one point have equal amounts of power. From here on,
|
|||
|
the two leaders can only spread their thoughts to gain members. "Jack
|
|||
|
ignored him again. `Who'll join my tribe and have fun?'`I'm chief,'said
|
|||
|
Ralph tremulously.`And what about the fire? And I've got the conch.'"
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
This clearly splits the two groups up, as Jack's ideas towards fun
|
|||
|
attract most of the boys, while Ralph's ideas towards work attract very
|
|||
|
few. Leadership in this part is what splits the boys into two groups. There
|
|||
|
is little that Ralph can do. He cannot alter his plans, but hope that the
|
|||
|
others will realize that fun will not lead to being rescued. While on the
|
|||
|
other hand, Jack gains power by expressing his ideas, and quickly becomes
|
|||
|
an effective leader. This is an excellent example of complete democracy
|
|||
|
over the people.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Democracy seems to play a keen part in the lives of the leaders. It
|
|||
|
seems as though the more people that enter a group, the more power the
|
|||
|
leader gets. This is shown in Jack's case, while in Ralph's, the opposite
|
|||
|
occurs. He loses interest from the others, and with this his power slowly
|
|||
|
drains. This all leads to one main point, that power is controlled by the
|
|||
|
people, not by one single being.
