-Right off the bat, the chapter title, "A View to a Death", makes me think that someone is going to die in this chapter. It's also a sort of foreshadowing of the events that happen in the chapter. - There are a lot of pathetic fallacies used to reflect the boys' mood, such as "the air was ready to explode". I think Golding also used this bad weather to foreshadow conflict and bad things in the future. Simon is described as having "lost the usual brightness of his eyes", signaling the extent to which his person is beginning to deteriorate. Additionally, because Simon is meant to represent goodness, I believe he also shows how goodness begins to cope and how evil takes over. Simon is also described as "walking with a sort of sullen determination like an old man", which I The reflection harkens back to the time when Golding wrote: "the infinite cynicism of adult life"; he realized that without order, the evil of human nature would be inevitable, and he lost hope. - There is a more pathetic error when Golding writes that clouds are coming. - The soldier can be interoperated as a physical version of "the beast", as she instilled fear in all the boys and ultimately brought out the worst in everyone. Would the boys still be together if the pilot had landed and scared everyone into thinking there was a beast? - Piggy shouts: “Stop it!” » when Ralph throws water on him, which is a big step for him, because he fights back. He also throws water on Ralph, which shows that he is struggling, and somehow shows that even Piggy is becoming less civilized, although the other boys' version of being uncivilized far outweighs that by Piggy. - Jack seems to have gone crazy with this leadership. , for he is described as sitting on his own log, surrounded by food; h...... middle of paper......is still very civilized.-There is other evidence that Ralph forgets the importance of fire and loses connection with civilization, as Golding describes like a “curtain beating”. in his head. » This imagery creates a clear picture in the reader's mind of what Ralph is experiencing. I think this page highlights how dire the situation is on the island for non-savages, as Sam and Eric fight, two boys who are practically one. person. I think it shows how the boys start to fight against themselves and their mental health, because they basically have nothing left. - I believe Jack taking Piggy's glasses symbolizes that Piggy is even more useless now, and this is a blow to Ralph, as he relies on Piggy for much of his decision-making. I think this may also foreshadow Piggy's death, as they are practically taking a part of him, and he could be next.
