Literary Questions On Lord Of
Words: 1486 - Pages: 6.... the children could not survive without rules so he makes up a list of rules based upon common sense. It is Ralph’s job to lay down rules and organize some type of society on the island. Throughout the novel we see many changes in Ralph’s character since he is always in conflict with Jack Merridew, the novel’s antagonist. These many changes put Ralph into the category of a round character, one who is more human as opposed to a flat character who is one dimensional. Ralph’s contribution to The Lord of the Flies is his representation of law and order or an organized society.

In Gulliver's first voyage to Lilliput, the Lilliputians impress Gulliver with their intelligence and organizational abilities, as well as the fact that they are well dressed and articulate. However, his role as the town giant not only put into perspective the selfishness and unrelenting need for power of the human race, but also opened his eyes to the untrusting and ungrateful nature of those little critters. Another bad point is their pride and conceit, illustrated best by the Emperor, with his title, “Golbasto Molmaren Evlame Gurdilo Shefin Mully .....
