We recommend you several steps to write a good
essay on the Lord of the Flies novel.
3
The First Step. Reading the Novel of William
Golding, Lord of the Flies
You cant write a qualitative literary analysis
essay without attentive reading the literary
work. Even if you have already read the novel of
William Golding, Lord of the Flies, some time
ago, refresh your memory.
4
Remember that a brief summary of the book doesnt
substitute the whole literary work. You may read
a shortened version of the novel only after
having read the whole text, otherwise you will
miss some important details which can help you to
write a good essay. If you wish, you can also
download and watch Lord of the Flies film. It may
help you to feel deeply the emotions of the main
characters. However, nothing can be better than
reading the whole novel of William Golding, Lord
of the Flies (especially if you have to write an
essay on this literary work).
5
The Second Step. Choosing the Direction of
Writing
Look through these questions. 1. Who is your
favorite character of the Lord of the Flies
Novel? Why? 2. Can you compare the traits of
Ralph and Jack? Why are these two characters
diametrically opposed? 3. Can you explain the
meaning of the symbols (Piggys glasses, Lord of
the flies, etc.) in the Lord of the Flies Novel?
6
4. What does the end of the novel mean? Is it a
happy end? Is it a didactic end? 5. Is Ralph an
ideal leader? If you answer is Yes, he is,
explain the reasons of his failures. If your
answer is No, he isnt, point out his mistakes
in managing other boys. 6. Imagine that the
leader of boys was Piggy. What would be the end
of the novel? 7. Can you compare two groups of
boys with the leader Ralph (Ralph, Piggy, Simon)
and with the leader Jack (Jack, Roger and
others)? What do they symbolize? Give a detailed
answer on one of the given answers to write your
Lord of the Flies essay.
7
The Third Step. Writing a Lord of the Flies Essay
Suppose you have chosen the seventh question
Can you compare two groups of boys with the
leader Ralph (Ralph, Piggy, Simon) and with the
leader Jack (Jack, Roger and others)? for
writing a Lord of the Flies essay. In this case
your Lord of the Flies essay will contain the
elements of a compare and contrast essay type.
8
As you can guess, the first group of boys (Ralph,
Piggy, Simon) is a symbol of the civilization and
intellectual power, whereas the second group of
boys (Jack, Roger and others) symbolize the
savagery and chaos. The title of your essay on
this topic may be Civilization vs. Savagery (the
Novel of the William Golding, Lord of the Flies)
or People to Animals (the Novel of the William
Golding, Lord of the Flies). We recommend you to
look through some scientific literature concerned
with this topic before writing your essay.
9
You may write something like this The last
scientific researches show that the IQ level of
human 2-year children is not higher than the IQ
level of apes. It is the society that makes us
human. At first, all the boys agreed to have the
rules for saving their lives. However, having
found themselves without adults and restrictions,
almost all the boys proved to be like primitive
animals You may also try to make a prediction
of the humanitys future according to the Lord of
the flies novel.
