Golding, Sir William, William Golding Mark Gerson in full SIR WILLIAM GERALD GOLDING (b. Sept. 19, 1911, St. Columb Minor, near Newquay, Cornwall, Eng.d. June 19, 1993, Perranarworthal, near Falmouth, Cornwall), English novelist who in 1983 won the Nobel Prize for Literature for his parables of the human condition. He attracted a cult of followers, especially among the youth of the post-World War II generation. Educated at Marlborough Grammar School, where his father taught, and at Brasenose College, Oxford, Golding graduated in 1935. After working in a settlement house and in small theatre companies, he became a schoolmaster at Bishop Wordsworth's School, Salisbury. He joined the Royal Navy in 1940, took part in the action that saw the sinking of the German battleship Bismarck, and commanded a rocket-launching craft during the invasion of France in 1944. After the war he resumed teaching at Bishop Wordsworth's until 1961. Golding's first published novel was Lord of the Flies (1954; film 1963 and 1990), the story of a group of schoolboys isolated on a coral island who revert to savagery. Its imaginative and brutal depiction of the rapid and inevitable dissolution of social mores aroused widespread interest. The Inheritors (1955), set in the last days of Neanderthal man, is another story of the essential violence and depravity of human nature. The guilt-filled reflections of a naval officer, his ship torpedoed, who faces an agonizing death are the subject of

Sir William Golding Lord of the Flies novel cover Essay Topics and Critical Commentaries Essay Topics Develop an explanation of why some critics feel that Golding's main themes are that there is no hope for mankind, or that evil is an inborn trait of mankind. Be sure to use examples from the book and describe your own ideas. William Golding writes: "The theme (of Lord of the Flies) is an attempt to trace the defects of society back to the defects of human nature. The moral is that the shape of society must depend on the ethical mature of the individual and not on any political system however apparently logical or respectable." In a well constructed essay, discuss the statement this novel makes about this theme and whether you agree or disagree. Avoid plot summary. Instead deal with what different characters symbolize and the statement they make about individuals and their government. Be as specific as possible, and utilize introductory and concluding paragraphs. Identify the most significant symbol in the novel and justify your choice.

Encyclopedia Golding, Sir William (Gerald) Golding, Sir William (Gerald), , English novelist. Praised for his highly imaginative and original writings, Golding was basically concerned with the eternal nature of man. In his best-known work, the allegorical Lord of the Flies (1954), he described the nightmarish adventures of a group of English schoolboys stranded on an island and traced their degeneration from a state of innocence to blood lust and savagery. His later works include The Inheritors Pincher Martin Free Fall The Spire The Pyramid The Scorpion God Darkness Visible (1979), and a maritime trilogy: Rites of Passage Close Quarters (1987), and Fire Down Below (1989). Golding received the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1983, and was knighted in 1988. See studies by A. Johnston (1980), P. Redpath (1986) and J. Cary (1989).

Lord of the Flies Modern Library Top 100 Novels of the 20th Century (41) Author Info: William Golding In the notes to the copy of the book that I read, Golding said that "The theme of the book is an attempt to trace the defects of Society back to the defects of human nature. The moral is that the shape of a society must depend on the ethical nature of the individual and not on any political system however apparently logical or respectable." This seems to me to be profoundly wrong. Ethics and morality are a function of the political system that society's adopt, not vice versa. Golding would have done well to read Hobbes' Leviathan . Hobbes makes the much more convincing case that for man in the state of Nature, life was "Nasty, brutish and short". So man traded off a certain amount of autonomy to a central authority in exchange for protection from other men. Morality then flows from the political structures that men adopt.

10. William Golding sir william golding. Novelist and Winner of The nobel Prize for Literature.From william golding at BWS edited by John Cox as a memorial http://www.bws.wilts.sch.uk/famous people/golding.html

Sir William Golding Novelist and Winner of The Nobel Prize for Literature From William Golding at BWS "William Golding was a teacher at Bishop Wordsworth's School for three different periods of his life. He is well known for his book 'The Lord Of The Flies' which he based on the boys he so patiently observed. rvation of them, presumably not only as commander but as author as well. Rather like Robinson Crusoe unable to move his new craft William Golding and his cadets found theirs too large to move round the house. For one absorbed in his own creations William Golding gave much to school life. He regularly sang with the choir in chapel services and was a soloist in the live 1945 BBC Radio broadcast of 'The Finding of the King' (written by F.C. Happold) shortly before leaving the Royal Navy and rejoining the staff at Bishop's. He also played the oboe in the school orchestra. At one particular rehearsal the school orchestra was sounding even more excruciating than usual. "Mr Golding. Can you give us that 'A' again?" Golding was a stickler for correct English usage. "I'm afraid I can't give you that one" he replied, "but I'll give you one like it!". The above is from a drawing by Old Wordsworthian James Starzacher He brought his dramatic expertise from outside school to bear upon play productions such as Oedipus Rex in December 1940 before leaving to join the Royal Navy. A lecture he gave on mediaeval stained glass is recalled as knowledgeable and interesting and as master in charge of a trip to Figsbury Rings he gave permission for the boys to form into two groups - one to attack the fort and one to defend it. The author's opportunity for close observation of boys in conflict was further extended.
