English Abstract
The following study presents two of the well known writers living on the two sides of the Atlantic, the British William Gerald Golding and the American John Champlin Gardner.
Both choose different worlds in their fiction by which they indirectly criticize the contemporary, civilized man.
This study explores Golding's The Inheritors and Gardner's Grendel showing the moral and humanistic similarities or correspondences between the two novels in addition to the linguistic experiments the two writers have used in their fiction.
This thesis comprises five chapters; Chapter One is an introduction that covers the type of fiction written by the two writers who demonstrate their primitiveness and discontent with modern civilization.
This chapter provides also biographies of both writers and clarifies the effects of their experiences on their writing.
Chapter Two tackles the different theoretical and empirical studies written about the two novelists and their works.
Chapter Three is about the methods and procedures used.
Chapter Four is the core of the thesis where the different views and arguments of the two novelists as well as a detailed discussion of the two novels are presented.
Chapter Five includes the conclusion, the recommendations and further studies given in the thesis.
