        Determines the tragic direction of the story
        
        Entirety of prologue is description of the play's plot - fate
        
        Star cross'd lovers
        
        From forth the fatal loins of these two foes
        
        O! I am fortunes fool
        
        Romeo believes himself to be used for the god's entertainment
        
        After killing Tybalt
        
        One writ with me in sour misfortune
      - LOVE
      - DEATH
      - HATE
- - - - Jack is presented as someone who doesn't want to obey and instead wants his own authority
        
        'I ought to be chief I'm head boy. I can sing c sharp'
        
        He declares his choir boys 'the hunters' after not becoming cheif
        
        Jack wants some semblance of authority
        
        Jack doesn't want to have to obey Ralph
        
        Foreshadows his creation of own 'tribe'
      - Jack is presented as arrogant and without thought for the boys and littluns
        
        'His specs! Use them as burning glasses'
        
        Jack aggressively snatches glasses from piggy's face to start the fire - showing his lack of care for Piggy and foreshadowing his further distaste for Piggy as the novel goes on
      - Jack is shown to be one of the first to resort to savagery - using his mask
        
        'I thought I would kill'
        
        Couldn't kill the beast because of his last semblance of civilisation
        
        'The mask was a thing on it's own, behind which Jack hid'
        
        The mask gives Jack the idea that he can separate himself and therefore he believes he can do whatever he wishes
      - Jack leads the rest of the biguns to savagery
        
        'sharpen a stick at both ends'
    - - Ralph has no hidden depth or unhealthy character traits
        
        'There was a mildness about his eyes that proclaimed no devil' - Chapter 1 when Ralph is being first described
        
        Suggests Ralph is gentle and can be trusted - 'no devil' emphasises Golding's devout Christian nature by picturing the devil as true evil to show Ralph's good.
        
        Contradicting argument
        
        However - Golding uses this idea to push the fact that everyone has 'mankind's essential illness' when Ralph joins in with the killing of Simon so regardless of how good Ralph is everyone has the innate evil infecting mankind
        
        Easy to sympathise with
      - Ralph represents order and civilisation
        
        First to blow conch to unite the island
        
        Elected as first leader by the boys
        
        Dedicates efforts to keeping fire going
        
        They'll see our smoke
        
        Ralph is focused on practical matters and wants the boys to have the highest chance of being saved and surviving
        
        Hobbes and Rousseau -
      - Ralph is the least changed boy at the end of the novel
        
        Didn't give into savagery
        
        Only boy able to communicate with officer
        
        'Ralph wept for the end of innocence' 'And the death of a true friend named Piggy'
        
        Although he is the least changed, Ralph is still scarred by the other boy's actions and is not unchanged by the savagery that occurred on the island
      - Ralph is understanding with the boys
        
        Listens to Piggy's advice
        
        'new understanding that Piggy had given him'
        
        Builds shelter
        
        Reveals Ralph's awareness that Piggy's thinking skills are superior to his own
        
        Only boy to accept what they did to Simon
