“Laughter arose “he's not Fatty” cried Ralph “he's real name's Piggy!’”
Piggy(Pig)- luck, honesty
When Jack and he's choir group came he made fun of Piggy calling him Fatty and everyone started laughing, so Ralph feeling pressured said the first thing that came to mind he's real name.

Description
Water - resurrectionFire - lifeSome boys like Ralph knew that having water and fire were essential to life and living. Some boys question the need for the fire, but others like Ralph know why it’s truly needed. Like a symbol of hope, someone see’s the fire and comes to rescue them

Quote 1 Description
Fire - LifeShip - SymbolismThe boys need the fire to live; hoping that someone comes to find them. The ship symbolises hope and safety, that someone will see the fire and come save the boys. The boys losing rational thinking makes them lose hope - let fire burn out to search for food, ship passes by and misses them.

“Normally the underside of the green roof was lit by a tangle of golden reflections, and their faces were lit upside down-like, thought Ralph, when you hold an
electric torch in your hands. But now the sun was slanting in at one side, so that the shadows were where they ought
to be. (77)

Quote #1 description
Green- HopeShadows- EvilSimileIn the quote, it implies that the sun was setting, and the green colour disappeared. This represents that their hope is disappearing. Simultaneously, the shadows are appearing, which represents that as their hope is leaving, they are becoming evil. Also, the simile was used to show what little light they had before, and they even lost that.

“In a moment the platform was full of arguing,
gesticulating shadows. To Ralph, seated, this seemed the breaking up of sanity. Fear, beasts, no general agreement
that the fire was all important (88)

Quote #2 description
Fire- LifeShadows- EvilMetaphorAs the characters are less certain that the fire is important, they are also less certain that their lives are important, and that they will have a good chance to survive. This represents their loss of hope, of being able to survive and have good lives. Due to their hopelessness, they are becoming evil as shown with a metaphor that the characters were actually turning into shadows, and fully embracing their evilness.

Quote #4 description
Darkness- DespairGrey- DecayLight- HopeMetaphorsThe darkness represents their loss of hope. The light represents what little hope they have left, but even that hope is decaying, as portrayed by the grey colour. This leads them to become evil, as shown by the metaphor of claws, as well as the diction for menace.

Quote # 5 description
Beast- SymbolismFire- Light imagery and lifeAt this point, they have lost a lot of their hope, as shown by the fire being completely out, and now the beast within themselves in starting to become stronger. The evil is starting to fully take over, and the fire represents the hope they could gain back, but the evil forces are too strong or them to overcome.

““Sitting, Ralph was aware of the heat for the
first time that day. He pulled distastefully at his grey shirt and wondered whether he might
undertake the adventure of washing it.”(Golding, 109)

Chapter 7 Quote #1 “Sitting, Ralph was aware of the heat for the first time that
day. He pulled distastefully at his grey shirt and wondered whether he might undertake the adventure of washing it.”(Golding, 109)Grey shirt: Grey represents the archetype of a loss or being lifelessness
Distastefully: Diction showing how he is feeling at this point
Ralphs grey shirt represents the loss of hope to maintain being cleanly. This is also shown through him wondering if he “might undertake the adventure of washing it.” This is a way of showing he is abandoning the natural human instinct in society to stay cleanly.

Chapter 7 Quote #2 “There was a chance that you might put the beast out of
mind and dream for a while”(Golding, 109)Beast: The beast is an archetype showing fear
This shows that there was a loss of hope to ever not think about the beast. The beast and the fear associated with it was haunting Ralph and the boys to the point where it was consuming their thoughts. The natural human instinct is to want to dream and the boys had no hope of this if the beast was still an issue for them.

Chapter 8 Quote #3 “He was safe from shame or self-consciousness behind the
mask of his paint and could look at each of them in turn.” (Golding, 140)Mask: Mask is an archetype that represents concealment of oneself.
The loss of hope in self abilities or self confidence can make humans by nature want to hide themselves to feel more comfortable or safe. This shows that Jack had a loss of hope in himself and by nature he felt more confident to face the other boys with the mask covering his insecurities.

Chapter 8 Quote #4 “The group of boys looked at the white shell with
affectionate respect. Piggy placed it in Ralph’s hand and the littluns, seeing the familiar symbol, started to come back”. (Golding, 141)White: The archetype for white represents purity and good.
In this quote it is showing that the boys had a loss of hope that Jack was going to take the conch. Once the savages left the boys were able to look back at this symbol for good and purity in their lives to bring back their hope. The savages did not have this representation of hope which was in result forcing them into a state of not following their natural human instinct to fit into the behaviour society had set out for them.

Quote 1: “Between the flashes of lightning the air was dark and terrible” page 151
Dark - ignorance or despairDespair - the complete loss or absence of hope.
Lightning being a spark of light represents hope
This quote was written during when the storm started and they were looking for shelter. Therefore saying that besides a few flashes of “hope” (Lightning) the air was dark and terrible. With dark meaning loss of hope this shows where they were completely losing hope, although there were a couple sparks of hope.

The “blue and white scar” is trying to break through the dark sky, the blue and white scar representing the truth and purity of the boys showing that the truth and purity is trying to break through their loss of hope but not managing to do so.

The mask representing concealment is showing the side of him he’s hiding from the boys, his fear.

"We can light it every morning," said Piggy. "Nobody ain't going to see smoke in the dark."-164
Light - HopeDark - Despair
Despair means loss of hope
In this quote piggy is talking about lighting the fire, for hope of survival but then realizing nobody is going to see it in the dark. With the archetypes of Light meaning hope and dark meaning loss of hope this quote means, nobody is able to see any hope due to the fact they have lost their hope.

“At length, save for an occasional rustle, the shelter was silent. An oblong of blackness relieved with brilliant spangles”
page 164Black - darkness, chaos, evil, unconscious
In this quote the boys were all sitting in the shelter together not speaking as it was just silent and in the quote it talks about how an “oblong of blackness” was in the room. Blackness represents evil showing how in that shelter they were all being filled with evil. This quote was written on the same page after my previous quote about the boys losing hope, demonstrating how loss of hope motivates human to be evil.
