his body is carried out to sea as with the plane and piggy , the sea is an unchanged element throughout the story and is used to erase painful memories and bad expieriences I thought that Simon's body being carried out to see represents the ascension of Jesus, since Simon was a representation of Christ. The white light is also a symbol of him rising up into heaven. (this is what my English teacher told me, anyway)

Why is Simons dead body carried out to sea in terms of glorification?

Simon is spiritual and a Christ figure. His death is an allusion to Jesus being sacrificed. It also shows how much Simon was connected to the spiritual world, and that he was meant to be a sacrifice to nature. The sea, a part of nature, is taking his body because he was meant to be a part of nature. Acting as a halo, "the strange attendant creatures, with their fiery eyes and trailing vapors, busied themselves round his head." (Golding 154)


Does a sterile dead body in a concealed room produce maggotts?
