Sigmund Freud's Lord Of The Flies

In the absence of punishments, there is always a struggle between the right and the wrong. Sigmund Freud has introduced a theory which is now called "structural theory".

Gradually, in Lord of the Flies, violence became the motivator and the whole island lacked the social and the moral values. On the other hand, some people are strongly driven by their morals and religious beliefs no matter what the condition is. That character was symbolized by Boxer in Animal Farm. Boxer throughout the whole novel show helpful and kind intentions: “To see him toiling up the slope inch by inch, his breath coming fast, the tips of his hoofs clawing at the ground, and his great sides matted with sweat, filled everyone with admiration” (Orwell
