The following morning, Ralph and Piggy discuss what they have done. Jack’s hunters attack them and their few followers and steal Piggy’s glasses in the process. Ralph’s group travels to Jack’s stronghold in an attempt to make Jack see reason, but Jack orders Sam and Eric tied up and fights with Ralph. In the ensuing battle, one boy, Roger, rolls a boulder down the mountain, killing Piggy and shattering the conch shell. Ralph barely manages to escape a torrent of spears.

Ralph hides for the rest of the night and the following day, while the others hunt him like an animal. Jack has the other boys ignite the forest in order to smoke Ralph out of his hiding place. Ralph stays in the forest, where he discovers and destroys the sow’s head, but eventually, he is forced out onto the beach, where he knows the other boys will soon arrive to kill him. Ralph collapses in exhaustion, but when he looks up, he sees a British naval officer standing over him. The officer’s ship noticed the fire raging in the jungle. The other boys reach the beach and stop in their tracks at the sight of the officer. Amazed at the spectacle of this group of bloodthirsty, savage children, the officer asks Ralph to explain. Ralph is overwhelmed by the knowledge that he is safe but, thinking about what has happened on the island, he begins to weep. The other boys begin to sob as well. The officer turns his back so that the boys may regain their composure.

Not long after the meeting, some military planes engage in a battle high above the island. The boys, asleep below, do not notice the flashing lights and explosions in the clouds. A parachutist drifts to earth on the signal-fire mountain, dead. Sam and Eric, the twins responsible for watching the fire at night, are asleep and do not see the parachutist land. When the twins wake up, they see the enormous silhouette of his parachute and hear the strange flapping noises it makes. Thinking the island beast is at hand, they rush back to the camp in terror and report that the beast has attacked them.

The boys organize a hunting expedition to search for the monster. Jack and Ralph, who are increasingly at odds, travel up the mountain. They see the silhouette of the parachute from a distance and think that it looks like a huge, deformed ape. The group holds a meeting at which Jack and Ralph tell the others of the sighting. Jack says that Ralph is a coward and that he should be removed from office, but the other boys refuse to vote Ralph out of power. Jack angrily runs away down the beach, calling all the hunters to join him. Ralph rallies the remaining boys to build a new signal fire, this time on the beach rather than on the mountain. They obey, but before they have finished the task, most of them have slipped away to join Jack.

Jack declares himself the leader of the new tribe of hunters and organizes a hunt and a violent, ritual slaughter of a sow to solemnize the occasion. The hunters then decapitate the sow and place its head on a sharpened stake in the jungle as an offering to the beast. Later, encountering the bloody, fly-covered head, Simon has a terrible vision, during which it seems to him that the head is speaking. The voice, which he imagines as belonging to the Lord of the Flies, says that Simon will never escape him, for he exists within all men. Simon faints. When he wakes up, he goes to the mountain, where he sees the dead parachutist. Understanding then that the beast does not exist externally but rather within each individual boy, Simon travels to the beach to tell the others what he has seen. But the others are in the midst of a chaotic revelry—even Ralph and Piggy have joined Jack’s feast—and when they see Simon’s shadowy figure emerge from the jungle, they fall upon him and kill him with their bare hands and teeth.

2012-05-09T07:27:00.000-07:00

In chapter 8, here you now see Jack is talking over and Ralph really cant stop it. the boys will follow who they think wont hurt them. Its a fear thing. I get the feeling that Simon will die. He is sitting alone by the monster bate and the boys might think he is the monster it is just a feeling I have. I can see that the boys are used to living on the island and are doing it well. They are getting pigs and food its just an all around good time. But that might get to there heads. IDK, On to the next!

In chapter 8 Jack calls a meeting, insults Ralph, and asks for Ralph to no longer be chief. Nobody else agrees. Jack, embarrassed, leaves the tribe and goes into the forest. The assembly continues. Simon suggests they go up the mountain. Piggy suggests they build the fire on the beach since the beast is on the mountain. The boys gather wood. The littluns sing and dance. Roger, Bill, Maurice, and other biguns escape into the woods, following Jack. Simon has also disappeared into his secret spot. The hunters track down a pig and kill it. They chop off its head and offer it to the beast as a sacrifice. Flies swarm. The hunters race back to the beach to steal fire. Simon arrives at the pig's head after the hunters have left. He imagines the pig's head is speaking to him. The pig's head tells Simon he can't escape. Jack's hunters raid Ralph's camp for fire and invite the others.

What Do I Think of Chapter 7 ?????

2012-05-09T06:24:00.000-07:00

Chapter 7

I liked this chapter because I really is making me feel that the boys will start fighting even more. I know that in the towns around were I live band the book in the high schools cause kids kill kids SoOoOoOo I am thinking that soon some kids will fight and jack will kill someone. Just my thought. I think that Ralph is growing closer to Piggy cause the other boys are fighting and going after Ralph. When the boys see the dead guy it shows that they are still kids and they need grown ups to debunk the things that go bump in the night. On to the next!!!!!!

(To the sound of Temp. Home)

Written By

Nicholas KF Bohn

Little girl, 3 months old

A little to used to bein' in fear

No good mom or dad , Not a good home

Another sister that will never feel love

No one cares what goes on in this place

She cry’s with a tier on her face

This is a horrible home

It's not were you belong

Hate and neglect that you go through

This is just not right, For what you have to endure

She doesn’t even know what is to come in this

Horrible Home

A mom on the drugs

She needs to loose her rights, Got nothing good to do

She's looking for some drugs, Looking for a way out

Cause she never can be able to love

At night she beats her baby girl

Because she will never fell O K

This is a horrible home

It's not were you belong

Hate and neglect that you go through

This is just not right, For what you have to endure

She doesn’t even know what is to come in this

Horrible Home

Little girl, Morgue slab

Child Services messed up this time

They all close there eyes and feel bad right now

They look up and say “I can't believe her fate”

That was a horrible home

It's not were you belonged

Hate and neglect that you went through

This is just not right, For what you had to endure

She didn't even know what is to come in that

Horrible Home

This is a horrible home

"Lord of the Flies" Chapter 7

2012-05-03T14:56:00.002-07:00

Chapter 7

In chapter 7 the boys go to the mountain along the shore on the other side of the island. When they stop to eat some fruit, Ralph wines on his hair and he wants a soapy bath, a haircut, a toothbrush. He realizes that the boys' dirt has become normal for them. At one point Ralph looks out to the sea and has a sense that they are lost and remote than he had thought previously. Simon seems to know what he's thinking and tells Ralph that he believes he WILL be saved. He does not suggest that all the boys or even he will be saved. The boys discover poop of a pig. The pig gets away but not without being hit by Ralph. His success at hitting the pig fills Ralph with pride about the hunt. . Robert pretends to be the pig. It gets out of hand and turn violent. Robert is terrified but it ends before he gets seriously hurt. They talk about doing it to a littlnu. It is late in the day and they will not get back to the camp until after night. Simon will go through the jungle on his own to the side of the island where Piggy and the littluns are. The rest of the boys keep going to get up the mountain. Jack evidently sees the dead pilot in the darkness but does not know what it is. Freaked out, he comes back to the others and tells them he's seen something. Ralph goes forward to inspect, still not believing that there is a beast. In the darkness Ralph too sees the pilot and is unable to recognize the figure for what it is. The boys flee the mountain and race back to the camp.

Main Character List And Info

2012-05-03T14:31:00.000-07:00

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

THIS IS NOT MY Character List

OWNED BY SPARKNOTES

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ralph - The novel’s protagonist, the twelve-year-old English boy who is elected leader of the group of boys marooned on the island. Ralph attempts to coordinate the boys’ efforts to build a miniature civilization on the island until they can be rescued. Ralph represents human beings’ civilizing instinct, as opposed to the savage instinct that Jack embodies.

Jack - The novel’s antagonist, one of the older boys stranded on the island. Jack becomes the leader of the hunters but longs for total power and becomes increasingly wild, barbaric, and cruel as the novel progresses. Jack, adept at manipulating the other boys, represents the instinct of savagery within human beings, as opposed to the civilizing instinct Ralph represents.

Simon - A shy, sensitive boy in the group. Simon, in some ways the only naturally “good” character on the island, behaves kindly toward the younger boys and is willing to work for the good of their community. Moreover, because his motivation is rooted in his deep feeling of connectedness to nature, Simon is the only character whose sense of morality does not seem to have been imposed by society. Simon represents a kind of natural goodness, as opposed to the unbridled evil of Jack and the imposed morality of civilization represented by Ralph and Piggy.

Piggy - Ralph’s “lieutenant.” A whiny, intellectual boy, Piggy’s inventiveness frequently leads to innovation, such as the makeshift sundial that the boys use to tell time. Piggy represents the scientific, rational side of civilization.

Roger - Jack’s “lieutenant.” A sadistic, cruel older boy who brutalizes the littluns and eventually murders Piggy by rolling a boulder onto him.

Sam and Eric - A pair of twins closely allied with Ralph. Sam and Eric are always together, and the other boys often treat them as a single entity, calling them “Samneric.” The easily excitable Sam and Eric are part of the group known as the “bigguns.” At the end of the novel, they fall victim to Jack’s manipulation and coercion.

The Lord of the Flies - The name given to the sow’s head that Jack’s gang impales on a stake and erects in the forest as an offering to the “beast.” The Lord of the Flies comes to symbolize the primordial instincts of power and cruelty that take control of Jack’s tribe.
