Number of pages: 3 | Number of words: 801

.... calls it a “scar” to demonstrate that the island, or on a greater level, the earth, is a living thing.

While exploring the island, Ralph says, “’this belongs to us’” (29). This statement epitomizes mans attitude towards our planet. People believe that because it’s not bolted down and nobody has written their name on it, they own it. Like the boys in the story, the island evolves from a untapped paradise to a barren .....

Number of pages: 9 | Number of words: 2290

.... shocking account of that extreme terror and brutality she suffers from John and Mrs Reed (the book flung at her, shut up in the red-room) points out that the fountainhead of her emotional life is the experience of oppression. Yet, her little self is full of fiery energy (as one of the servants observed: "Did ever anybody see such a picture of passion!" ), which like a volcano erupts at times in the form of revolt against the "tyrants".
