Lord of the Flies is a perfect moral lesson neatly wrapped in a wonderful piece of literature, at a perfect serving size for students and teachers globally. It is full of great literary devices and themes, obvious or implicit, to be analysed by students of different skill levels. Mix that with the lesson that specifies that we are all capable of unspeakable things, and to be wiser and always look of civility in yourself.

Golding might have chosen the theme of savagery because he wanted the readers to understand the dilemmas faced when he was battling in World War Two: Lack of order, Autocratic leaders, Blood lust and loss of life.

How Jack does not want to be rescued - This clearly shows that he has completely turned savage  as any castaway's main goal should be to get rescued, even if this means sacrificing important resources that are essential to survival.

How

Golding may have chosen the theme of savagery because he had experienced blood, death and savagery himself in war and that may have influenced his stories. Also the kids are stranded on an island with no adults to control them and they are slowly getting savage because they don't have much limitations and consequences to their actions.

I think that Golding included the theme of savagery to illustrate what our society would look like if we all acted like Jack, and to create and to show some situations we would face. Also, it gives the story a more realistic environment, as they are stranded one an island.

Golding might choose to include the theme of savagery because it gives a bigger idea that they are stranded and that to survive they need to do things that are considered wrong/savage. It might also be because he came from  WWII and he wanted to explore the idea of what would happen when people are forced to come up with the decision of either survive ( but survive by becoming savage ), or die.

Golding might have picked the theme of savagery because he tried to show his feelings during events and the problems he went against. The feelings portrayed in LOTF could be his feelings during World War 2 - Blood lust, Losing important people and Autocratic people.

one example of savagery is when jack starts arguing with the rest of the group as he isn't happy with the conch rules and wants to talk about only what he wants to do - Golding represents jack as an autocratic leader/government. the example is portrayed in the quotation "why should choosing make any difference? just giving orders that don't make any sense-"

Golding might have chosen to use the theme of savagery because he has seen many horific things that has changed his life. During the war he would have seen people he trusted change drastically in a short space in time, people he used to trust turn evil. This would have given him a great idea for the character, Jack. He might have made a character like Jack to make people think more about how the human race now act.

LOTF is still relevant today due to the fact it conveys that without rules and social boundaries, humans would be savages. Rules ensure that everyone is safe and teaching it in schools and highlighting how wrong it is may help children understand how important rules really are. Despite how ridiculous or over the top they may be it is essential to follow them. It is also references the beast inside, we are animals and we are capable of animalistic tendencies. As shown by characters such as Jack when he acts vicious and predatory.

LOFT is still relevant to this day and taught in schools because it possesses really important messages such as that all humans have a savage side that they conceal in civilization. It teaches us the importance of listening to others opinions (teamwork) and how you can be influenced easily by the environment and people surrounding you. Golding might have used to portray this to show the horrors of bloodlust in WW2 he might have even used Jack to portray himself when he was losing the idea if civilization and entranced by bloodlust and war.

Lord of the Flies was a novel Sir William Golding wrote after serving in WWII, in order to portray the innate cruelty and evil that lay dormant - for the most part - within each and every human. Lord of the Flies is still relevant today since it serves as a reminder of what us as humans are capable of: feats originally unbeknownst to man, and works of art which are considered revolutionary - but also because it displays the extents that people will go to get what they want. As personified by Jack Merridew, those who lust for power and control over others may remain one with the crowd, but once order fails, they seize their chance and drive the weak willed of us - the followers, if you will - to the ground, to dig our own graves in the mistakes of not only our ancestors, but also of ourselves.

Jack is most determined to hunt and kill a pig which is seen to be savage and will not stop for anyone or anything as long as he reaches his goal. Jack is autocratic as he also disregards the rules set by the "leader" Ralph and and ignores his duties which costs the boys on the island a chance of being rescued.

When Roger is introduced he is shown to be savage as he starts off by throwing stones and hurling them at another boy at the island. This is shown quite deep in the story and shows how much the boys have changed from civilized people to savage hooligans

One example of savagery could be when Jack kills a pig.This is because he had been talking about killing a pig for quite some time and you could see his character slowly changing and becoming more and more savage as the days went by and when he finally killed the pig he went fully savage.

In the first chapter Jack started to show us his savage side by arguing with all the other children on the island and being a autocratic dictator by not listening to any of their ideas
Another example of Jack's savagery is when he saw the pig in the forest and he was determined to hunt it down no matter what and that showed us how his blood-lust intent for survival.

Jack is slowly turning more uncivilised throughout the story and he'll keep changing until hes a savage uncontrollable child.

Lord of the Flies is still relevant today because it illustrates the true nature of men. The central focus of the lord of the flies is the conflict between two conflicting impulses that exist in human beings. There's the instinct to live by the rules and the instinct to give in to our selfish desires. This conflict might be expressed in a number of ways like civilization vs. savagery. Some other books that are similar to lord of flies like treasure island are not as realistic as lord of the flies since they portray being stuck on an island as a fun, light hearted adventure.

Golding might have chosen to portray the theme of savegery because of his background in war. He might have wanted people to have a better understanding of the pressures and dilemmas he was facing in WW2. He could have been inspired by his experience in war and wanted people to understand the problems he faced - lack of order, blood lust, autocratic leaders, death, distruction. Some examples of these problems that he included in the book include: the death of the boy with the birthmark, the killing of the first pig, Jack ignoring others.
