Lord of the Flies

 


             The twins, Sam and Eric, "combine" personalities to form "Sameric". They are no longer known as two separate individuals by the other boys, but as one person who can no longer separate back to Sam and Eric.
             HUMAN NATURE.
             The outcomes of human nature lead to an equally flawed society in which the boys occupied for approximately one year. Without the restraints of a civilized society, the behaviour of the boys regressed to their savage foundations. Survival is of utmost importance in such cases, thus, in an overpowering need to survive, to continue to breath, to continue to hope, the boys relapse to the base form of human nature, which led to anarchy, violence and death. .
             All boys have quite obviously suffered a great deal of mental and physical anguish, which is palpable by the strong aura of fear surrounding each and every boy.
             I have no doubts that what these boys have witnessed will scar them tremendously for the rest of their lives. I carried out interviews with five of the boys on the island at the time of their rescue, the following information is based on two things; personal assumption and secondly, learnt circumstances.
             Ralph is twelve years old boy with blonde hair, and is the most charismatic of the group. He could easily be described as being built "like a boxer," and was, according to other boys interviewed, initially chosen as leader of the group due to his many positive qualities such as the obvious authority he represents and at first, enforces. .
             He maintains that a conflict with Jack throughout the entire time on the island occurred. This is owed to Ralph's attempt to keep order whereas Jack isn't concerned with it. .
             Ralph is, besides like the other boys suffering of malnutrition and in need of a bath, obviously suffering from various mental troubles. He is withdrawn and deeply disturbed. .
             Jack, who is also twelve years old, is of a skinnier build and has red hair. His freckled face portrays a certain sense of displaced evil beyond his years.
