    The symbol that represents the change in Jack through the first half of the novel is the female pig. The female pig turned the innocent choir leader into a hunter. The text supports this by stating, “You cut a pig’s throat to let the blood out,” said Jack, “otherwise you can’t eat the meat.” (41). This quote accurately supports the claim by him being completely ok with the fact that slitting a pig’s throat is ok to say out loud and to be ok with killing at his age a normal person would feel guilty and ashamed he shows he is ashamed by the fact he didn’t do it. The text also states, “I was going to,” said Jack.” (41). This supports my statement by proving his brutalness twards the animal but he wanted to be brutal it gave him a sense of power that would eventually lead him to taking over the island. Thus, through the symbolism of the female pig, the character of Jack is shown to have great potential to…

    Jack thought he was a shoe-in to be leader since he had the choir to back him up. Instead, Ralph was chosen over Jack. Jack was extremely angry that he lost and believed he deserved to be the leader. It was even embarassing to him because Ralph, who beat him out for being the leader, wasn’t even interested in winning. Jack became obsessed in having power over the tribe that he was ready to go great lengths to get what he wanted. He made some boys on the island feel like outsiders in order to get the tribe on his side. This is an example why competition is a main reason why there was a greed to have…

As Jack and Ralph are coming up with expectations for the group, Jack says, "we've got to have rules and obey them. After all, we're not savages. We're English, and the English are best at everything. So we’ve got to do the right things.” (42).

All Jack cares about is himself, and even though he is willing to establish rules, they will not apply to him. Jack has been blinded with savagery and he will do everything in his power to fulfill his own interests. When Jack calls for…
