Good morning ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to the 2018 Festival of Dangerous Ideas. I am here today to examine whether the greatest threat to civilisation is humanity itself? I strongly believe that, humanity is most definitely the greatest threat to civilisation. While Lord of the Flies was first published in 1954 by William Golding as a response to the rise of Nazism and after the horrors of human evil witnessed during World War II, it still speaks directly to our world today in 2018 where nations and world leaders such as Xi Jinping, Kim Jon Un and Vladimir Putin continue to fight for world domination because of their greed for power.
Reading response:Extended text: fiction Lord of the flies The book is about a plane crashes causing the only survivors and a group of schoolboys without adult supervision, trapped on a desert island waiting for rescue. Initially, when I read the beginning of the story, the boys have elected Ralph to be the leader and settled some rules to maintain order in the island. At first, I thought this is a children's adventure story where the children had get along and rescued by their teamwork and it ends up happily. In fact, after reading more the middle part of the book, the positive picture of my images had been smashed up, problems getting more and more.
