The Scar ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Symbolically William Golding begins  Lord of the Flies  by describing the scar. This is his introduction to the theme of the novel, man’s destruction, and the scar represents the start of man’s downfall. The scar is the physical evidence of what humankind can do to a perfect place. It is the interruption of man’s selfish and animalistic actions to the peacefulness of nature. The scar is the destruction of society as well as each individual’s own nature. Before the island was inhabited by humans, it had no imperfections. However, the minute the boys land on the island, they damage it. The scar can be interpreted as foreshadowing to what the boys eventually end up doing to one another. They begin by destroying the island, but will end destroying themselves and the others around them. It establishes the fact that the boys are doomed from the very beginning, as their world slowly goes from order to chaos. Without man’s impact, the island would have remained the peaceful and serene place that it was. The scar will always be on the island as a reminder of the imperfections on mankind. It is the symbol of the ugly, everlasting imprint that mankind makes on the world.
