Title of paper: "The
Human Soul in Heart of Darkness and The Lord of the
Flies"
Author or topic: Joseph
Conrad and William Golding
Abstract
My intention in this paper is to analyse the topics which are dealt in both Lord of the Flies, by W.Golding, and Heart of Darkness, by J. Conrad. The first one is a realistic novel in which Golding knows exactly what boys (the characters of the novel) are like. The nature of the human soul reflects along the novel, that is, from my point of view, one of the main themes: are we good since we are born or are we evil?
In Heart of Darkness we can see the journey of Marlow, the main character, but also a man`s destructive obsession that reverberates into a struggle between two continents, Europe and Africa.
