Theme: Lord of the Flies and Things Fall Apart

One theme of Things Fall Apart relates to the destruction of a society. This theme is best shown in the rise and fall of Okonkwo, who represents the best and worst of his culture. Thus, Okonkwo himself becomes a symbol of the disintegration.

The theme of Lord of the Flies, which is about the individual shaping society, is presented through the disintegration of a society of boys, who represent the best and worst of mankind.

Compare and contrast Ralph and Okonkwo and their roles in the disintegration of their societies. Discuss the choices each had and whether they were responsible in any way for the events that took place.

THE SECOND COMING

Turning and turning in the widening gyre The falcon cannot hear the falconer; Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold; Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world, The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere The ceremony of innocence is drowned; The best lack all conviction, while the worst Are full of passionate intensity.

Surely some revelation is at hand; Surely the Second Coming is at hand. The Second Coming! Hardly are those words out When a vast image out of Spiritus Mundi Troubles my sight: a waste of desert sand; A shape with lion body and the head of a man, A gaze blank and pitiless as the sun, Is moving its slow thighs, while all about it Wind shadows of the indignant desert birds.

The darkness drops again but now I know That twenty centuries of stony sleep Were vexed to nightmare by a rocking cradle, And what rough beast, its hour come round at last, Slouches towards Bethlehem to be born?

William Butler Yeats wrote “The Second Coming” soon after the end of World War I, known at the time as “The Great War” and “The War to End All Wars.” It was also not long since the Easter Rising in Ireland, a rebellion that was brutally suppressed and the Russian Revolution of 1917, which overthrew the long rule of the Czars and was accompanied by its full share of lingering chaos. It’s no wonder the poet’s words convey his sense that the world he knew was coming to an end.

“The Second Coming,” of course, refers to the Christian prophecy in the Bible’s Book of Revelation that Jesus will return to reign over Earth in the end times, but his poem describes an apocalypse very different from the Christian vision of the end of the world.

How do the events of the stories reflect to the events in the poem?
