Some of the people we meet in this book are Ralph, Jack, Gisgis, Simon and Roger: Ralph is throughout the book a symbol of goodness. He has good facilities to be a fighter when he is older, with broad, powerful shoulders. He is one of those who realize that they need laws on the island. These must at all costs be observed that they do not end up like savages. Ralph name means "born leader" and he is also elected leader.
Jack is Ralph's antithesis. He is the symbol of evil and dictatorship. Jack was also trying to be elected leader but lost. He is so jealous of Ralph throughout the book, and the duel between Ralph and Jack appears a number of times. Both are trying to get an advantage over the other. Jack is as Ralph, a clear leader type, and his name means "he who takes over." Jack comes to the island as choir conductor.
Gisgis is a chunky kid, with glasses and powerful "ASSM". He becomes Ralph's adviser and right hand. Gisgis is the only one throughout the book are loyal to Ralph. In the book, one gets the impression that Gisgis is the smartest and most underestimated. He always gets stepped on and bullied, and will never be shown the respect he deserves.
Lord of the Flies is an allegorical novel called. It is a picture of how people are and how society is. Golding is known to criticize society, and to focus on the negative, all that people should take the settlement in the world. There are pictures of the Bible. Ralph and his gang that Jesus and the Christian and Jack with his gang that the devil and all evil in the world. The whole book starts well, exactly as planned, but satan and people ruin everything for themselves. Ralph is the only one that stuck in the good and what is right. The symbol of Satan can also be a pig head being baptized Lord of the Flies. Jack and the hunters have been hunting and killing a pig. To sweeten the monster capes those of the pig head and put it on a stick as a gift. Simon is in the book in a kind of trance where he leads a dialogue with this pig head, inside his own head. The head trying to take everything from Simon of self-confidence, and to make him afraid. Golding has given the evil pigs head name of Lord of the Flies which I think is linked to the name of Beelzebub, which means Lord of the flies. In the New Testament, Beelzebub, Lord of the demons and being put on a par with Satan. This clearly shows that the use of algorism is an essential key to analyzing “Lord of the Flies”
