1. PAGE # 11 GOLDING AND CONNELL 3/16/15 Aim: How can we analyze “The Most Dangerous Game” parallel to LOTF? Do Now: On page 93 of “The Most Dangerous Game” it states: “Pure imagination,” said Rainsford. “One superstitious sailor can taint the whole ship’s company with his fear.” “Maybe. But sometimes I think sailors have an extra sense that tells them when they are in danger. Sometimes I think evil is a tangible thing—with wave lengths, just as sound and light have. An evil place can, so to speak, broadcast vibrations of evil.” Connect this part to Lord of the Flies.
