William Golding’s “Lord of the Flies” and its Historical
Timeframe
[ send me this essay ]
This 5 page report discusses William Golding’s 1954
novel “Lord of the Flies.” The timeframe in which Golding wrote
the book is important because it offers an added dimension of
insight to the reality from which the boys surviving on the
island came. Lost and helpless as they were, the boys had no
choice but to rely on the structures and constraints that they
had known in the “civilized” world. A world that had only
recently survived a world war and was moving toward the social
changes of the 1960s. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

William Golding/Darkness Visible
[ send me this essay ]
A 4 page analysis of Golding's novel. William Golding's 1979 novel Darkness Visible, like his previous work Lord of the Flies, is extremely complex, offering an integrate narrative fabric that highlights the ambiguity of moral issues, as well as the problem of making moral judgements and how this serves to establish barriers that isolate people from one another. The novel's protagonists live at opposite ends of the spiritual spectrum, yet each seem to affect the world around them in extraordinary ways. Matty, who is deformed from a terrible burn, achieves spiritual transcendence and the beautiful Sophy employs her power by being increasingly sadistic. While this sounds as if Golding presents good and evil as polar opposites, the novel works to obliterate such distinctions and to demonstrate that good and evil are interdependent.

Francis is a murderous ex-baseball player who returns to family after destroying Helen. Helen reconciles herself in death.

5 pages in length. The aspects of love and relationship are vast and far-reaching within the literary boundaries of William Shakespeare's "Othello" and Robert Browning's "Porphyria's Lover." While both writers equally address each aspect, the manner by which they do so does not mirror the other; rather, Browning's treatment is significantly more traditional when compared to Shakespeare's decidedly
more unconventional. No additional sources cited.
