1. Knowledge is important in all aspects of life. It is gained through experience and teaching. Throughout Lord of the Flies by William Golding‚ knowledge is used and abused. Socrates sums up many events occurring in the book and a certain character with his quote “The only good is knowledge and the only evil is ignorance”. 2. Piggy was the bearer of much knowledge. He had much input but got hardly any credit due to his passive and non-confrontational nature. We see the more egotistical characters

Socrates argues that parallel to the city he had created a just person is comprised of three parts. Justice in the individual‚ as in the city‚ involves the correct power relationship among parts‚ with each part occupying its appropriate role. rational part of the soul that lusts after truth‚ a spirited part of the soul that lusts after honor‚ and an appetitive part of the soul that lusts after everything else.
