Excluding Piggy unites the boys by creating a common enemy and enabling them to bond over their shared mistreatment of him. It helps establish a sense of group identity and hierarchy among the boys, with Piggy being seen as an outsider and a target for their aggression. This exclusion allows the boys to feel a sense of belonging and control within their group dynamics.
Ralph and Piggy use a conch shell to call the boys together.
The boys initially ostracize Piggy for his physical weakness, intelligence, and unpopularity. They mock him and ignore his suggestions, seeing him as an outsider. As the novel progresses, some boys start to appreciate Piggy's wisdom and logical thinking, while others continue to disregard him. Ultimately, Piggy's fate highlights the savagery and cruelty that the boys are capable of.
Piggy's job was to watch over the littluns ( the little boys )
It isn't hard for the boys to hear Piggy, the truth is that they just don't want to listen to him. The fire is exciting and Piggy isn't, he whines a lot about things that most of the other boys find totally boring. Piggy is considered to be an outsider, he doesn't fit in and the majority of the boys consider him a joke and unworthy of respect, so they just don't listen to him. Jack in particular dislikes Piggy and his usual response to anything that Piggy says is, "shut up!"
Piggy and Simon
Piggy died when the boys rolled the rock. He fell off the cliff and the rock smashed him into pieces. Poor piggy. Pork, anyone?
Simon volunteers to go back with the message to Piggy and the littluns that the boys will be home after dark.
The other boys in "Lord of the Flies" view Piggy as an outcast and a target for their bullying. They see him as weak, annoying, and a hindrance to their desire for power and control on the island. Despite Piggy's intelligence and good intentions, the boys' disdain for him ultimately leads to tragic consequences.
In Lord of the Flies, Piggy and Simon are tragically killed. Simon is stabbed to death by the boys and Piggy is sadly hit by a massive rock:(
