At the beginning, the conch symbolizes power and authority. The boys use it to call together meetings and discuss problems they have on the island. Later on the conch is broken with Piggy when he dies and without it the order the boys once had is now lost. Rosenfield writes, “Not only has his head been smashed, but also the conch, symbol of order, is
The conch in Lord of the Flies is the most important symbol in the book. The conch represents civilization and how they need to work together. It also represents order and how they need it to keep things from collapsing. But the major thing which the conch symbolizes is power which becomes a major conflict in the book. All of these things in which the conch symbolizes is what they use in order to self-govern themselves. When they are on the island, the conch becomes a big part of their civilization
