Lord of the Flies and The Bacchae

Most of us has read "Lord of the Flies" at some point or another. It's author derives plenty from other works such as "The Bacchae". "The Bacchae" isn't the most notable of connections too the Lord of the Flies, but try too compare the parallels between the two. There are commonalities between the characters and especially between the thematic elements. Arguably the most important things the authors want us too learn about are good versus evil, human nature, and the tendencies/habits of societies, but what does each of them want us to learn about these points?
I really need help with this for my English course, if you can't figure any of that out thanks for trying. :)
