Developing Theme.

A theme that Golding makes apparent in the novel is that: mankind can't survive with only one kind of intelligence. William Golding slowly brings this to focus by giving each character a time where they can show their personality in a different setting. Like you cannot a civilizations with only a leader. You wouldn't have someone who actually does the thinking. another way he brings this to focus, is by Jack and Ralph's dispute over who is chief, because Jack does not like not having control of everything. This shows that they have clashing personalities and don't really mix well.
