    Through character interactions and dynamics, writers convey profound ideas about power, as seen in Golding's Lord of the Flies. Without authority, anarchy and chaos ensue, as symbolized by the breaking of the conch shell. The death of Piggy, who represents civilization and order, shows the loss of order when nature takes over in an uncivilized state. A power dynamic can also form from physical appearances, as seen between Piggy and Jack in Lord of the Flies.

    English Cheat Sheet

    - A statement about the theme

    - Through character dynamics + Interactions between these characters, writers of literature ->
    convey profound ideas on power. Golding is a prime example of this, with his
    classic/seminal/influential novel. Lord of the Flies.

    - Thesis: A lack of authority/ The lack of an authority figure -> anarchy + chaos

    - Evidence: Symbolism -> Symbol of Power -> The conch breaking represents the removal of power.

    - Personification -> “sea breathed again in a long, slow sigh” -> Represents the motionless nature
    which depicts that this uncivilised state has taken over, not caring about the death of a vital
    character.

    - Characterisation -> Piggy represented civilisation and order -> His death represents the loss of
    order.

    - Thesis: A power dynamic can be the result of physical appearances.

    Characterisation: Piggy vs Jack
