The long scar” - when the plane crashed, it left a long scar, showing the destruction of human nature.

The island was untouched but was then destroyed when the boys came.

The island isn’t all nice, because when the boys arrive, Piggy and Ralph get scratched by ‘creepers’.

The island was contextually described as the Garden of Eden.

athetic fallacy is where the weather reflects a character's mood. This is relevant to the chapter because during their tribal dance where they're killing Simon, a storm is also happening, so the weather is reflecting the character's savage, tribal mood.

The new of 'a body on the hill' provides a clear piece of Christian imagery. Simon can be viewed as a prophet and a visionary, with a parallel between the parachutist on the mountain and Christ crucified on the hill at Calvery.

The light and dark represents the good in Simon, the dark of the hunters and all of the dark is represented by the the weather and the rain and the storm represents the death of the one last good one of them left.

This chapter reveals the extreme consequences of having many strong personality clashes within a group. Simon, who claims that the beast is actually a dead parachutist was savagely killed by Jack and his tribe, who want to believe that there is a beast so they can hunt it down. Chapter nine explores how the effects of being in a group with strong opinions and clashing personalities, can result in great divisions among the group. But, it also means that they are just following each other as they turn into beasts, many act like sheep and succumb to the pressure of savagery.

The words of the chant serve a double purpose. Firstly, they foreshadow the murder of Simon and how the dance and worship of the beast will lead to horrible things. Secondly, the boys' love of blood and violence is an outlet for the evil and tribalism coming over the island. The chant is a symbol of a loss of civilised order and a loss of innocence.

Simon is brutally killed by Jack and his tribe when they mistook him for the beast. Simon's nose had been bleeding and he was covered in blood when he stumbled upon the tribe doing their savage dance. They pretended Simon was the beast, due to his bloody appearance, but got to carried away. When he tried to fight back, Golding referred to his weak attempts as "the tearing of teeth and claws", suggesting his appearance as the beast. When her was finally killed his body was described as being a "small beast, stained in blood" reiterating back to his mild, "small" appearance being portrayed as the beast.

This describes the need of even Ralph and Piggy to find some kind of order and society in Jack's tribe, even if it is evil or misguided. Golding uses personification to describe the terror of the boys.

The short sharp snippets of dialogue make the scene seem tense and uneasy. This compounded by Piggy's headache shows how the island is becoming an uncomfortable place to be.

Jack has control over his whole   'tribe' and is leading them with a dictator sort of leadership. this leads to the boys being afraid to say something and not wanting to mess with Jack as he is the one bringing in the food for them to eat. So he uses what he contributes to the group to persuade the boys to join his tribe and to follow his leadership.

"The air was ready to explode" (p179) - Golding uses the weather as a way of expressing the current situation with the schoolboys on the island. The use of metaphor and pathetic fallacy referring to the explosion of the air prompts the reader to think of violence exploding on the island and the sense of unease and unhappiness that Piggy and Ralph are experiencing.

Jack orders the boys to dance with Roger miming the pig and with the chant "Kill the beast! Cut his throat! Spill his blood!" As the storm gathers intensity Roger joins the hunters leaving the centre of the dance empty and "a thing" crawls out of the forest and into the empty space. The thing, a beast to the bys, tries to cry out something about a dead man on a hill, but the boys in their crazed state attack Simon and leave him dead at the edge of the sea.

By likening Jack to an idol, Golding is able to effectively depict to the reader how Jack's power is gaining and how it is based on the tribalism and loss of civilised ideals of the boys.

* Simon discovers the supposed Beast on the mountain isn't in fact a Beast, rather a dead parachutist and comes to the revelation that this Beast the the boys are hunting isn't a physical beast but is actually a Beast inside them referring to the savagery inside the boys.
* Simon is an allegory symbolism of morality and innocence so when he dies, this signifies the end of morality- the last bit of good and innocence has dissipated.
* Simon is also seen as a Christ-like figure, representing morality whilst trying to deliver his message to the boys but when he dies, he replicates Christ's sacrificial death as the one last bit of 'perfect innocence' that is killed.

Pathetic fallacy is where the weather reflects a character's mood. This is relevant to the chapter because during their tribal dance where they're killing Simon, a storm is also happening, so the weather is reflecting the character's savage, tribal mood. "kill the beast! Cut his throat! Spill his blood!" The blue-white scar was constant, the noise endurable.' pathetic fallacy is also used at the end of the chapter where the weather eventually dies down-as does Simon and how it reflects the scene of someone dying. 'Towards midnight the rain ceased and the clouds drifted away...then the breeze died too..'

* Simon discovers the parachutist isn't a beast which is a new revelation to the plot however, Golding removes this from the plot and removes this revelation when Simon frees the body from the parachute, 'Then he took the lines in his hands; he freed them from the rocks and the figure from the wind's indignity.'
* By doing this, the other boys will never find out about this revelation and how the Beast was never on the mountain but inside them so they will never find out that the Beast is actually inside them
