It is a place where disorder and destruction rule. You might also want to work in the Pig's head on the stick "The Lord of the Flies" Beelzebub and Simon, Golding's Christ figure, arriving at the top of the mountain and having his point of enlightenment. I think in a general sense, you should outline what Hell is within the thematic context of the novel. Then you can get more specific with your details. Please let me know on this thread should yo have any more questions.
There is always the pig's head on the stick. Certainly when Jack lights the whole island on fire is a literal and symbolic representation of Hell. So, if you had to make something , you might create a diorama of the island on fire. Kind of like cardboard throw some glue and sand on, make some paper palm trees and draw paper flames around the whole thing.
You could do something depicting Simon as a Christ being killed. Although he wasn't Christ, Golding certainly meant for him to represent him in the novel. Hope that helps a little. Hey, the Pigs head on the stick is only the physical manifestation of evil. As Simon always has seemed to have known, the Beast, evil. Beelzebub or whatever one wishes to call it exists within the boys themselves.
They are the source of evil which bring about their own demise. Hey, come to think of it, a simple drawing of a nondescript human body might be the symbol for evil you are looking for.
This would be Simon's and Golding's interpretation of the Devil. The Devil or whatever he is resides in the "darkness of man's heart. The experiences the boys go through while trying to survive on the island lead them to the evil that lies beneath their civilized surface. Ralph screams at Jack, calling him a beast and a swine and a thief.
They fight again, but Piggy asks to speak as the other boys jeer. Piggy asks them whether it is better to be a pack of painted savages or to be sensible like Ralph, to have rules and agree or to hunt and kill. Roger leans his weight on the lever, causing a great rock to crash down and knocks Piggy over a cliff and kills him.
Quite suitably, the conch is also destroyed with Piggy, as with the death of reason Piggy comes the death of order and civilization the conch. Jack declares himself chief, and hurls his spear at Ralph, which tears the skin and flesh over his ribs, then shears off and falls into the water.
Ralph turns and runs, but Sam and Eric remain. Jack orders them to join the tribe, but when they only wish to be let go he pokes them in the ribs with a spear. From Wikibooks, open books for an open world. Chapter Castle Rock. Category : Book:Lord of the Flies. Now that Jack and the forces of savagery have risen to unchallenged prominence on the island, the hunt has thoroughly won out over the more peaceful civilizing instinct. Rather than successfully mitigate the power of the hunt with the rules and structures of civilization, Ralph becomes a victim of the savage forces the hunt represents—he has literally become the prey.
