         <description><![CDATA[<div>Themes of Power, Survival, Loneliness, Fear, Brutality, Hatred, Betrayal, and Conflict<br>Conflicts may be created by the creation of a hierarchy of power by the body of children, created by their helplessness of being alone on an island, and created by the fact they are only children, without much&nbsp; intelligence, self-awareness, nor physical ability that would benefit those in their situation.&nbsp;</div>]]></description>

Who will be the leader? Will there be more than one leader?<br>-  I think the boys will split up based on their different belief on how to survive. <br>- They may find it difficult to work as a team if they're only worried of their own survival. <br>- Since Golding didn't get along with many people, I can predict that he may have created a character like himself that goes against the group. </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Themes:<br>1) Corruption<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;- With so many people, I assume there will be a fight for power.<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; - Power cannot be shared.<br>2) Revenge<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;- As soon as one gains authority, he is an immediate target.<br>3) Unseen assistance<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;- With several characters appearing to be academically detrimental to the group, one is destined to fill the archetype of the wise fool.<br>4) Selective exclusion<br>&nbsp;- Because power cannot be distributed equally, a hierarchy must establish, maybe, on a scale of intelligence.<br>5) Codependency<br><br>Conflict:&nbsp;<br>1) Survival<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;- Using knowledge to eat edible fruits<br>2) Friendship<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;- Little groups may establish and those apart of the weaker group will struggle.<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; - Does not bring characters closer, but farther away.<br>3) Persona<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;- How characters act socially to stay or climb up the social ladder.<br>4) Political Use of Power<br>&nbsp;- A democracy must form as opposed to an totalitarian one.<br>5) Independence and Dependence<br>&nbsp;- In survival, dependence is of great harm, as it not only prevents oneself from protecting themselves, but it doubles the responsibility of those that they depend on.</div>]]></description>
