obstacle of being the leader of the group, exhibiting just how he would fit into the society on the island. I believe that Ralph will be the leader of the society created by the boys, and he will show the boys the right way to survival. Unlike Ralph, Piggy is a timid, and quiet young boy who is more of a follower than a leader. Although shy, he shows that he can be helpful and caring to the group, as all of his intentions
In the first three chapters of Lord of the Flies, Ralph finds himself stranded on an island after his plane crashed. He then ran into Piggy, which led them to believe that there were more boys on the island. They used a conch shell to sound the others to come hither. Ralph automatically became the leader of the boys because he seemed the most dominate and trustworthy boy on the island. Jack did not like that Ralph became the leader so he gets on Ralph’s nerves. A few days have passed and they still
Simon and Piggy Simon and Piggy are characters of the novel “Lord of the Flies” by William Golding, published in the year 1954. This version of the novel is released by the publisher “Klett”. The novel deals with a group of young boys who are on an uninhabited island because their plane crashed there. Throughout the novel the boys split into two groups. One group wants to be rescued and still obeys the normal rules of society but the other group understands that there are not any rules on the
Ralph and Piggy represent how some people maintain their moral compass no matter the situation, as they choose to maintain societal responsibilities for the little ones and make pragmatic decisions that would benefit everyone; nevertheless, they have different sources of power. Ralph’s source of power is his morality, his courage, and his natural tendency towards leadership; for example, Ralph is the first to discover a way to gather the boys together in the beginning of the novel, securing his place
characters are Ralph, and jack and simon, and piggy. In the book Ralph’s appearance is described as being very good looking. He also has a good figure, making a lot of the kids in the group jealous. To go along with his appearance he is very confident and gets excited easily. Ralph was put in charge of the group of kids, but he isn’t very intelligent. When ralph and piggy first met piggy told him his name( or nickname) and ralph laughed at him, piggy wasn’t really bothered by it as long as he didn’t
reason I don’t think jack would have been a very good leader is because he acted more like a dictator, where he told them to do something and they did it without question, no matter what it was even if it was a wrong thing to do. I also feel that piggy would have been a bad leader because he didn’t have any confidence or authority and it would have caused conflicts with people not listening to him even though he had good ideas.

a fat, little boy. His name is Piggy. He is so funny. He just told me that there are no adults, just us. It doesn’t matter to me though because my daddy is going to rescue me.

characters do not respect Piggy because his physical appearance is different from there’s and because he is a parental figure they don’t listen to what he says, realization that Piggy was more than his appearance was shown near the end of the novel this helps show that a person's perceived “difference” can lead to others not listening to what they have to say.

Piggy makes a great leader because he is realistic, intelectual, and opinionated. Throughout the story Lord of The Flies Piggy has spoke his own opinion and been realistic enough to see through the boys games they played on the island. No matter how far from humanity the boys got, Piggy managed to hold his place in knowing the difference between right and wrong. Jack and Ralph pretended as if they were good leaders, by acting like they knew how to lead a tribe. Although it is clear in the story that
