Abstract

Lord of the Flies, written by the famous contemporary novelists, was published in 1954. Golding won the Nobel Prize for it. Since its publication, it has become the focus by the literary critics. In order to catch its deep implication of the novel, the study, combining the background information of its creation, presents the duality of civilization: the restraints of civilization from degradation and the fragility of civilization, which plays a permanent warning for human beings.
