Lord of the Flies as stated by Kopp (as cited by Fowler, 2000), is a novel that depicts the idea that humans’ savagery is more deeply rooted to man’s nature than his humanizing nature. When the person’s life, whether in contentment or satisfaction, is endangered, the will to survive will always outdo the instinct to help another person. The characters are symbolism of different aspects of human nature that Golding tries to emphasize in his novel.
