Characters

In this story, i have been able to observe in the characters development,how 1 action made by anyone of this boys is a huge influence and credit on anyother action they intend to imply later.For example,a boy called Jack projects the action of opposing always against what the main general Ralph says,for this he is considered to be in rivalry with him and will do anything to get complete power,for which none of the rest of the boys will oppose to him because of fear.He imposes a dominant and rival state,so when Jack says to do something no one contradicts him.For this,many of the characters in this book may be forced to fight for their own spot in the small society. Plus,the more time these kids spend in the lonely island,with the poor rules and standards they have "established",a little sign of rebellion by some members is showing off, and maybe right now it seems small and unharmful but later it can turn into a masacre of everyone against everyone.The reins of standards are loosening up more and more each time. Now,in the characters interaction,the group of kids is slowly forming 2 sides,the violent and uncontrolled side of Jake and the stick-to-the-moral side with Ralph.Eventually both sides show signs of rivalry and objecion against the other.The Jake side is insisting in having more "liberty","fun","scandle" and "revolt" while the other side of Ralph tries to maintain order,pacific treat and accomodation of rules.But when two of these sides disagree their friendly relationship steps apart and ennemy sides come to light.Another type of character interaction is between some of the kids an the so called"piggy",it describes how the kids make fun of "piggy" because he is always trying to be responsable and just but with annoying comments.In average the interaction is a bit alarming and wild which gives a lot of sense as they are a bunch of kids without adults telling them how to act or what to do. I think the humour and actions by the characters in this story describe and develop perfectly the theme because the story tells what kind of actions and ocurrences can be brought by not having a society that followes and obeys rules, and these actions are uncontrolld and can lead to disaster annd panic.The characters personality changes because of their desperate thought of will someone find them? or not,when will they find them?, how? do they have enough supplies to survive?.It clearly is a stage where anyone could tear apart.
