In Lord of the Flies, What is the sow's head?
454658
It's the lord of the flies. which symbolizes the evil in all humans. it is the pig that (someone-i dont remember who) symbolically rapes the pig saying "'right up her @$$'".\n\nthis part of the book that i am talking about..the symbolic rape is in the middle of chapter 8. and then if you turn the page (or maybe 2-depends on your version) it says "'This head is for the beast. It's a gift.'" Chapter 8, pg. 124 (on this quote site its on page 124 but in my book its on page 137).

I wish I had kept the essay I had written on this book last year, but I do remember some about Ralph.\n\nRalph used the conch shell as a method of gathering the group together, and in doing so, he took an iniative as a leader.  The novel foreshadows him as a good leader because of his physical stature (lean body, fair hair, good complexion).  He embodied all of these characteristics.  Ralph represents democracy and he sees the island as an opportunity to exercise his newfound strength.\n\nHe has some originality of ideas too, such as building shelter first, setting up the fire, the camp, directing who should do what jobs, finding hunters and others to gather fruit, and designating the "bathroom" spot so the tide clears up the waste.\n\nRalph is ineffective because he gets most of his ideas from Piggy and refuses to compromise with Jack and his choir.  Because of this, they separate and get into fights, thereby allowing themselves to transcend into savagery.  The more conflict, the worse his reliabiliy is.  Futhermore, Ralph buys into the theory of a "ghost" or "beast."  It is Simon that discovers the truth, although untimately he pays the price when trying to warn the others of his discovery about the parachuted man on the mountain.  \n\nAs far as his inability to remember his purpose, Ralph gets tied up in so many small conflicts over power.  Gradually, these get bigger and his leadership diminishes.  The final symbolism of his full loss of power  occurs when Piggy is killed and the conch shell is shattered.\n\nI hope this helps!

Mr. See and Mr. Soar were old friends. See owned a saw and Soar owned a seesaw. Now See's saw sawed Soar's seesaw before Soar saw See, which made Soar sore. Had Soar seen See's saw before \nSee saw Soar's seesaw, then See's saw would not have sawed Soar's seesaw.But See saw Soar and Soar's seesaw before Soar saw See's saw, so See's saw sawed Soar's seesaw. It was a shame to let See see Soar so sore just because See's saw sawed Soar's seesaw.\n****************************\nHEE HEE HEE - HA HA HA

got this off sparknotes, maybe it will help\n\n\nPerception\nTen of The Chosen’s eighteen chapters conclude with references to eyes, seeing, watching, looking, or listening. Perception and vision is the novel’s dominant motif, bridging the entire text from Reuven’s eye injury at the beginning to the final passage, in which Reuven watches Danny walk away after perceiving an “almost blinding” “light” in Danny’s eyes. Vision in the novel symbolizes the ability to see the world, to see oneself, and to see beneath the surface and into the heart of a matter. As Danny and Reuven mature over the course of the novel, they develop clearer pictures of themselves and of the world around them.\nAfter Reuven’s eye accident, he remarks that “everything looks different.” His experience in the hospital gives him a newfound appreciation of his own health. Later, his friendship with Danny teaches him to look beyond superficial appearances. Their friendship broadens and deepens Reuven’s perception of the world and allows him to relate to and empathize with others’ suffering.\nAs the novel progresses, Potok focuses on other senses besides vision. In Chapter 7, Reb Saunders scolds Danny for hearing but not listening. When Danny reads in the library, he covers his ears to block out sound. As Danny’s friendship with Reuven develops, he learns to be a better listener. As a result of Danny’s experience with silence—which parallels Reuven’s experience with blindness—Danny learns to appreciate words. Furthermore, Reuven’s development is apparent in his descriptive language, which becomes more specific throughout the novel. As he becomes more aware of the world around him, his descriptions become more detailed, displaying Reuven’s improved command of his senses. The novel’s final passage mentions four of the five senses, showing the development both Reuven and Danny have experienced over the course of the novel.

Jealousy is referred to as the "green-eyed monster" in a Shakespearean play.  I'm not sure which play it is right now, although I want to say it's Othello.  It might be a reference to Shakespeare.

It is from the movie, Shrek, the first one.  The character asking the question was the gingerbread man, when he was being tortured by Lord Farquad.

Their head looks someone took a crap and molded it into the shape of a potato, and drew eyes on it. Their suction cups are lined with little teeth for gripping stuff, and they have a beak at the bottom of their head where they clamp down on their prey. Not the cutest animal ever.

We've all seen pictures of Satan portrayed as a hoofed creature, red in color.. with little horns on his head. \n\n\n \nBut this description is not Biblical. The hoofed being we usually see is actually closer to that of "Pan" from Greek mythology. \n\nPerhaps Satan wants this image of himself to be used, because of its absurdity. Knowing that the day would come when God and the Devil would both be dismissed as "mythical" \n\nRevelation 12:3 speaks of the red horned dragon. This is not Satan himself, but a reference to him from where these physical attributes possibly originate. \n\n\nRevelation 12:3 (KJV) \nAnd there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads. \nThe Book of "Ezekiel" tells us what Lucifer really looked like before he sinned. \n\nLucifer was a being "of perfect beauty". He was covered in every precious stone. He had pendants and jewels of gold... \n\nLucifer was beautiful before he sinned. An expression of Gods own beauty and power. But like man, Lucifer’s very nature changed when he sinned. His (Lucifer’s) physical appearance may have as well.

I remember reading this book back in High School. I don't remember any of it though.  Have you tried sparknotes.com?  If not, I know it is a movie. That probably doesn't help you much though.  Go to sparknotes.\n\nhttp://www.sparknotes.com/lit/flies/

It's impossible to identify the worm from that description.  There are a number of options.\n\nHowever, my best guess is that it is a horsehair worm.  Horsehair worms are rather fascinating creatures, possibly responsible for inspiring the film "Alien".  Adult worms live in water where they lay their eggs.  The eggs hatch into larvae, who make their way to an appropriate place to be eaten!  Once an insect (usually a grasshopper or a relative, such as cockroaches) eats them, they crawl out of it's digestive system and live in it's abdomen, growing every larger.  When they become adults, they secrete a chemical, causing the insect to get very thirsty.  It rushes to the nearest body of water, where the horsehair worm tears it's way out of the insects stomach and into the water, where it looks for another horsehair worm so it can start the whole process over again.
