Carly, what do you mean by Painted faces?
Answered by Alex
I found a quote what about this "Are we to paint what's on the face what's inside the face or what's behind it?"
Answered by Carly
Okay in chapter four, you know how Jack and the rest of the "hunters" had painted their faces?

I have to find at least 5 quotes out of the book to support that "theme".

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE help!!!!!

The actual question on the paper reads:
-Include at least five quotes/excerpts from the novel and the supporting theme (painted faces). Document each quote with the page number.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELP!!!!

OMG. You are reading Lord of the Flies. Ok, the theme is the guys are reverting to primitive culture, instead of advancing civilization. That theme actually is the point of the book, that in a Nuclear age, and in Stalin's Russia, civilization was going backwards.

You need to find quotes relating the painting of the faces to bringing out primitive emotions. I don't have that book in my library ( and wont have it) but look at the quotes.

Look at the cites here in bookrags, and look at the text around those specified.

I don't have a copy of this book either. But to continue the comments from Bobpursley -- the painted faces symbolize the boys becoming primitive and like savages. The warlike Scots at the time of the Roman Empire painted their faces. And of course, many American Indians, considered savages by the Europeans, also painted their faces.

Go through the book to find quotes relating to the boys' savagery.
