22. For example
The in confrontation in Fire on the Mountain the reader can
see that Ralph’s power is fragile and Jack does not respect
the established social order and this leads the reader to
have a sense of foreboding.

23. For example
The in confrontation in Fire on the Mountain the reader can

the established social order and this leads the reader to
have a sense of foreboding.
”I the conch,” said Piggy indignantly. “You let me speak!”
“The Conch doesn’t count on top of the mountain,” said Jack, “ so
you shut up.”

24. For example
The in confrontation in Fire on the Mountain the reader can see that
Ralph’s power is fragile and Jack does not respect the established
social order.
”I the conch,” said Piggy indignantly. “You let me speak!”
“The Conch doesn’t count on top of the mountain,” said Jack, “ so you shut up.”
Piggy’s indignation at Jack’s lack of respect for the ‘conch’, a symbol of
social order and democracy and associated with Ralph’s leadership,
shows the differences between the characters as the two sides
become established.

Ralph’s power is fragile and Jack does not respect the established
social order.
”I the conch,” said Piggy indignantly. “You let me speak!”
“The Conch doesn’t count on top of the mountain,” said Jack, “ so you shut up.”
Piggy’s indignation at Jack’s lack of respect for the ‘conch’, a symbol of
social order and democracy and associated with Ralph’s leadership,
shows the differences between the characters as the two sides
become established. The exclamation heightens Piggy’s indignation
at Jack’s lack of respect for the fragile democracy. Jack’s
monosyllabic response leads the reader to feel terror for Piggy and
their island civilisation. This perhaps shows Golding’s message that
man is capable of evil.

26. For example
The in confrontation in Fire on the Mountain the reader can see that
Ralph’s power is fragile and Jack does not respect the established
social order.
”I the conch,” said Piggy indignantly. “You let me speak!”
“The Conch doesn’t count on top of the mountain,” said Jack, “ so you shut up.”
Piggy’s indignation at Jack’s lack of respect for the ‘conch’, a symbol of
social order and democracy, shows the differences between the
characters as the two sides become established. Jack is dismissive
of both Piggy and the rules and this is emphasised wit his
monosyllabic retort; his statement that the conch does not work up
the mountain foreshadows how the power struggle will lead to a
physical and ideological separation between the boys. Piggy’s
repetition of “I’ve got the conch” in this scene show how
committed he is to social order. Piggy later dies with the conch as
the power struggle has destroyed the social order ‘into a thousand
white fragments (as it) cease(s) to exist.” This links to the theme
Limited room here. I would
go into more detail.
