... emotions to decide upon important dilemmas. Piggy does not let his emotions guide him. Through the course of the novel, we see how the symbolic society on this uninhabited tropical island in the Pacific Ocean makes the transition from carefully organized democratic reasoning to feeling-driven madness.

To understand the implications of Mr. Miller when he discusses the Salem witchcraft trials as having an impact on our society, one must first completely understand the metaphor, and all of its implications. Clearly, the candle described represents their persecution of the witches, perhaps the burning flame a symbol of the power that the Puritans possessed. It was the divine light that emanated from this candle, that they believed they could use to expose the heretics and eventually remove them from their society. The darkness that supposedly befuddled good and evil ...

... them as they fight, love, hate, and in many cases, die. This is mainly through each of the character's personalities, which are so well-developed that you find yourself wondering if these were real people at some time or another and you might travel to Germany to meet them.
