Both main characters, Ralph and Maria, transition from an individual in a new and isolated environment to a savage who is a part of this place.

Jack on the other hand, gave in to the temptation of simply hunting and playing, and lost his humanity in the process.

The Europeans were considered to be at the highest point yet achieved by humanity -- the civilized.

Rousseau defines this monotonous existence as happiness, yet with a constant, unchanging lifestyle, comfort
Savage Contradiction in Heterotopia During the 1930's, the myth of "the people" was born. This myth stressed the importance of unity, and glorified the notion of "average," as evidenced in a prize-winning essay describing "the typical American boy," written by an eighth grader named Alfred Roberts, Jr., for a contest sponsored by the 1939-40 Fair New York World's Fair.

” In the beginning the face painting is only something they do for fun. However, near the end of the story it becomes so bad that Ralph cannot even recognize who was standing in front of him. On page 195, “A smallish savage was standing between him and the rest of the forest, a savage striped red and white, and carrying a spear.” It can be seen by this quote that the face painting becomes a mask of evil over the choir boys’ faces.

Serious thinking is unnecessary because life has already been planned out. Hardships and stress can be solved with a few tablets of soma. This is the world which John Savage and others in the novel foolishly came to hate. All of the things that John Savage desires are the things that make our society unstable. Huxley uses John Savage to show the reader that this world is distopian, when this society is the closest example to a stable, utopian society. Uninhibited sexual freedom provides happiness
