#%The book Lord of the Flies was not popular at home before 1983. The pattern of researches has changed dramatically as William Golding received the Nobel Prize in Literature. However, Chinese scholars mostly focused on digging out this book from the perspective of the darkness of human nature in the past, which was lack of novelty and innovation. In addition, the book itself was a classic work that it fused with shallow and deep implications as well as smooth and obscure language. Therefore the complexity, profundity and diversity of this book made domestic scholars'researches more difficult. So far, the study of book has no progress in domestic. The recent situation is also not encouraging abroad for several years, and some obscure interpreta-tions of the book hinder the study of a large number of foreign researchers. The paper, breaking out the view of inertia, analyzes the most mysterious Simon and the most intelligent Piggy from the Archetype Character perspective to probe into a deeper mean-ing. This essay will apply Frye's archetype to make a breakthrough in finding out the far-reaching meanings of the Christ arche-typal Simon and wise old man archetypal Piggy.
