Choose one character from *Lord of the Flies* and compare him/her to a character in another novel, short story, movie or play. Explain how they resemble one another.

Ralph : The novel’s protagonist, the twelve-year-old English boy who is elected leader of the group of boys marooned on the island. Ralph attempts to coordinate the boys’ efforts to build a miniature civilization on the island until they can be rescued. Ralph represents human beings’ civilizing instinct, as opposed to the savage instinct that Jack embodies.

Rick ( From the show “The Walking Dead”): He’s the protagonist of the show who follows his internal moral compass just like Ralph from the lord of the flies. After the world over turned with flesh eating zombies he and his team always looked to implement civilization in a world that didn’t seem possible. Rick and Ralph are both leaders who’s powers were both challenged.

… I had this same question last year and Rick from the walking dead was the character that I picked because they both have similar roll in their stories.
