Lords of the flies


1. What are the viewpoints on the idea of freedom?

Freedom means we can do anything, but sometimes people misuse it in negative ways. We should consider the situation and timing before taking any action. If our freedom harms others or infringes on their rights, we should refrain from such actions. The question then arises: what about our own freedom? A.G. Gardiner, in his essay "On the Rule of the Road," suggests that the liberty of an individual must be balanced with the needs of society to ensure social safety and order. Without this balance, individual liberty could lead to chaos and anarchy.

Liberty = Freedom


2. Does freedom make a person an anarchist?

It depends on the individual. If people are educated, mature, and capable of handling freedom responsibly, they will not become anarchists. However, if a person gains freedom unexpectedly or lacks discipline due to their upbringing, they may behave like a compressed spring—once released, they might overreact and act recklessly.


3. Write the moral of the novel in your own words.

There are two morals in any work of art—what to do and what not to do. Sometimes, art teaches us what not to do in the future.

What to do:

- Leadership from Ralph

- Long-term vision and rationality from Simon

- Return to the basics, as seen in Sam, Eric, Ralph, and Jack

- Choose a good leader and give them a chance

- Protect innocent people, as the naval officer does

- Intellectual guidance from Piggy

- Follow rules and regulations, or the consequences will be dangerous


What not to do:

- Spread rumors

- Be consumed by jealousy

- Follow the crowd blindly

- Kill innocent people

4. How would you like to end the novel?

If I had the chance to change the ending of *Lord of the Flies*, I would prevent Simon and Piggy's deaths. Simon would return to the group and reveal the truth. Jack would break down in tears, realizing his wrongdoings. I would also remove the naval officer’s entry and instead have the boys work together to build a ship, with Simon as the captain.

       It's a beautiful and cloudy day. Shivesh is searching for something in his home, but unfortunately, he doesn't find it. He asks his mother,  "Have you seen Dada's old books?" Vrinda enters the room and asks, "What are you doing and Why is it all scattered ?"  Shivesh answers, "I am searching for Grandpa's old book where he wrote his daily schedule."  Vrinda questions, "But why do you want the book at this time?"  Shivesh insists, "You do what I say, don't bombard me with a bunch of questions."        After a while, Vrinda thinks and then looks behind the cupboard, and the book is there. "Here it is," Vrinda gives it to him vigorously.         Shivesh looks at the book as if he's found water in the desert. His grandpa, Mr. Sharikant , was a diarist, naturalist, and adventurer.         Shivesh cleans the dust off the book and opens it. He reads about a treasure in a forest. He's also an adven

HISTORYCAL BACKGROUND   1.Decline of the Party Feud.:  The contest between the Whigs and the Tories still continues, but it is hardly of the previous bitterness. The chief reason for this change is found in the weakness of the Tory party. In the middle of century the whigs had hardly any opposition. 2.Commercial and Imperial Expansion :  Under the pacific management of the great Whig minister Walpole, and owing to the successful wars of his successors, the eighteenth century saw an immense growth in the wealth and importance of the British Empire.  3. The French revolution : During the century new ideas were germinating; new forces were gathering strength; and the Revolution.  Liberty, equity and fraternity were the wach words of French revolution.
