He is a 12 years old English boy who is elected leader of the group of boys lost on the island.

He is one of the older boys stranded on the island. Jack becomes the leader of the hunters, but longs for total power and becomes increasingly wild, barbaric, and cruel as we read the novel.

He is in some ways the only “good” character on the island, as he behaves kindly toward the younger boys and is willing to work for the good of their community. Moreover, because his motivation is rooted in his deep feeling of connection with nature, Simon is the only character who hasn’t been affected or changed by society. He represents a kind of natural goodness, in opposition to the evil of Jack and the imposed morality of civilization represented by Ralph and Piggy.]]> 2020-08-22 03:21:12 UTC https://padlet.com/nlarraldegarces/ykqjjcnvyjyjb041/wish/692688928 nlarraldegarces https://padlet.com/nlarraldegarces/ykqjjcnvyjyjb041/wish/692689717 Piggy is Ralph’s lieutenant. A whiny, intelligent boy. His creativity frequently leads to innovation, such as the makeshift sundial that the boys use to tell time. Piggy represents the scientific, rational side of civilization. The same as Ralph, he has a view of civilization imposed by society.]]> 2020-08-22 03:23:29 UTC https://padlet.com/nlarraldegarces/ykqjjcnvyjyjb041/wish/692689717 nlarraldegarces https://padlet.com/nlarraldegarces/ykqjjcnvyjyjb041/wish/692689855 2020-08-22 03:23:51 UTC https://padlet.com/nlarraldegarces/ykqjjcnvyjyjb041/wish/692689855
