I have to write a thesis for an essay on Lord of the Flies I will be writing in class tomorrow.

The prompt states:
Compare and contrast Jack with Simon. Analyze what idea each character symbolically represents, explore their relationship in the text, and consider how their characters evolved.

**What I've come up with:
Jack= Devil/Satan
Simon= God
Jack is generally violent whereas Simon is peaceful/thoughtful

HELP? Thank you!

Jack and Simon are diametrically opposed personalities. Look at the character study and analysis here --
