Chp.10 LOTF Questions

1. Ralph, Piggy, and Samneric were discussing the death of Simon. Piggy was the most guilty of Simon's death because he denies that they killed Simon. This can be proven when they're talking to each other about what happened that night. "No! How could we - kill- it" (Golding 160).

2. Two differences between Jack and Ralph's explanations for Simon's death is that Ralph is in denial of Simon's death. He says that maybe Simon is still alive and is just "pretending" to be alive. This can be seen in page 156. Jack on the other hand, claims that Simon was the beast in disguise. "He came-disguised. He may come again even though we gave him the head of our kill to eat.." (Golding 160).

3. Based on Jack's order, I came to a conclusion that Jack has lost himself. He is obviously not the same anymore and we can see that by his actions. His savage side has completely taken over him yet he doesn't notice himself.

4. Jack is now the leader/chief.
Piggy: has an asthma attack and is not wearing his glasses
Ralph: Hit one of the boys
Sam: Hid from the boys
Eric: Beaten up by Jack
Jack: Steals Piggy's glasses and leads the other boys away
Roger: Follows Jack around
