Chapter 7• Civility verses Savagery
– “The circle moved in and round. Robert squealed in mock terror, then in real pain…’Kill him! Kill him!’” (114).
• Outer appearance of island and boys reflects their brutality and savagery that is developing

– “Ralph too was fighting to get near, to get a handful of that brown, vulnerable flesh. The desire to squeeze and hurt was over-mastering” (115).

Chapter 7
• Beast – Ralph doesn’t believe in it
– It fits into Jack’s savage perspective of the island• “Before them, something like a great ape was
sitting asleep with its head between its knees. Then the wind roared in the forest, there was confusion in the darkness, and the creature lifted its head, holding toward them the ruin of a face” (123).
–Indicates the ruin of humanity that will follow–Their fear causes this decline

Chapter 8
• Civility verses Savagery – Jack’s rise to power involves violence

Chapter 8
• Civility verses Savagery – “Jack held up the head and jammed the soft
throat down on the pointed end of the stick which pierced through into the mouth. He stood back and the head hung there, a little blood dribbling down the stick. ‘This head is for the beast. It’s a gift’” (136-137).
• Beast as enemy and as sacrifice • Enables Jack to rule his tribe • Beast encumbers a religious importance

Chapter 8
• The Lord of the Flies – “After a while these flies found Simon. Gorged, they
alighted by his runnels of sweat and drank. They tickled under his nostrils and played leapfrog on his thighs. They were black and iridescent green and without number; and in front of Simon, the Lord of the Flies hung on his stick and grinned. At last Simon gave up and looked back; saw the white teeth and dim eyes, the blood- and his gaze was held by that ancient, inescapable recognition. In Simon’s right temple, a pulse began to beat on the brain” (138).

behaviors – Liberates the boys

consciousness behind the mask of his paint and could look at each of them in turn” (140).

![Page 11: Lord of the Flies Chapters 7-9. Chapter 7 Character Development –“Ralph was full of fright and apprehension and pride” (113). –“’I hit him all right.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070410/56649f265503460f94c3cdb5/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Chapter 8• Simon
– Realizes that the beast is not a physical thing – Instinct within, natural human evil
“’I’m warning you. I’m going to get angry. D’you see? You’re not wanted. Understand? We are going to have fun on this island! So don’t try it on, my poor misguided boy, or else-’… Simon was inside the mouth. He fell down and lost consciousness” (144).
– Tells Simon to accept the savagery on the island – Unable to face the truth of what it says
![Page 12: Lord of the Flies Chapters 7-9. Chapter 7 Character Development –“Ralph was full of fright and apprehension and pride” (113). –“’I hit him all right.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070410/56649f265503460f94c3cdb5/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Chapter 9• Simon
– “’What else is there to do?’” (145)• He must face what the others think is the
beast • A visionary
– He doesn’t fear the beast – “Simon saw a humped things suddenly sit up on
the top and look down on him. He hid his face, and toiled on” (146)
» The body is a representation of the true beast» It brings out the worst in the boys » Allow fear to take over and divide them into
groups

Chapter 9
• Jack – Boys civility and culture gone – “Piggy and Ralph, under the threat of the sky,
found themselves eager to take a place in this demented but partly secure society. They were glad to touch the brown backs of the fence that hemmed in the terror and made it governable” (152).
• Uses rituals to motivate the boys • Sense of protection and safety
![Page 15: Lord of the Flies Chapters 7-9. Chapter 7 Character Development –“Ralph was full of fright and apprehension and pride” (113). –“’I hit him all right.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070410/56649f265503460f94c3cdb5/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Chapter 9
• Savagery – “The beast was on its knees in the center, its arms
folded over its face. It was crying out against the abominable noise, something about a body on the hill. The beast struggled forward, broke the ring, and fell over the steep edge of the rock to the sand by the water. At once the crowd surged after it, poured down the rock, leapt on to the beast, screamed, struck, bit, tore. There were no words, and no movements but the tearing of teeth and claws”(152-153).
![Page 16: Lord of the Flies Chapters 7-9. Chapter 7 Character Development –“Ralph was full of fright and apprehension and pride” (113). –“’I hit him all right.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070410/56649f265503460f94c3cdb5/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

they are playacting as savages • Have become savages
– “teeth and claws”
– Evil and violence within humans

Chapter 10• Reaction to Simon’s death
