Picture Lord of the Flies‚ simply put‚ is an allegory representing humanity as a whole. This can be visualized by seeing the island as the world‚ tribes representing countries‚ the conch or rules are a government‚ and differences between tribes can be seen as war.

the Seven deadly Sins as human beings in this play is what sets Marlowe apart from the original story of Faust. They also represent the three allegories that are found within the play. This engrossing tale of a proud and an inordinately ambitious medieval magician who sold his soul to the Devil is undoubtedly allegorical. The play itself has a moral allegory of universal significance which is shown through the characters Marlowe introduced into the play. \ The presence of the good and bad angels
