  • How Does Golding Present Ralph From Lord Of The Flies

    505 Words  | 3 Pages

    The mannered and civilized boy, Ralph, shows excellent survival skills. He uses logic and strategic planning to gain durability in an unfamiliar environment. For example, when the group of boys crashed into the deserted island, he commenced the first meeting and started a bonfire. Another example would be how the boys would come up with assumptions and superstitions of an actual beast that exists in the island, he investigates to find out that it was actually a dead paratrooper, and uses that as evidence to tell everyone to keep calm, (although they didn't believe in him). These events all imply on how Ralph is a natural leader in any given situation.

    While it is true that in doing so, Ralph would have been able to prevent the reckless actions of the boys and the savagery in which joining Jack’s tribe would instill in them, it is evident that Ralph was unable to stop the boys on the island from joining Jack’s tribe. This is demonstrated when Jack utilizes both the bribery of food that his tribe hunted and violent punishments for those who do not follow his orders to force the boys to stay in the tribe. An example of the force Jack utilizes to maintain his authority in the tribe is when Samneric are forced to join. Roger, influenced and rewarded by Jack for his savagery is given the job of terrorizing Samneric, describing their fear as, “The yelling ceased, and Samneric lay looking up in quiet terror” (182). The words “looking up” show that Samneric experience a power imbalance that causes them to be at a disadvantage.
