*Piggy's glasses get broken when he tripped on his own feet and fell on them, he is fat and crushed them
Piggy's fat did not crush his glasses. Jack broke them when he got back from hunting. Everyone is mad at him because he let the fire go out and a ship just passed by. Piggy stands up to him and Jack smacks him in the head which sends Piggy's specs flying. That's how they broke.
Piggy's glasses broke when Jack's tribe attacked Ralph's group and stole the glasses to start a fire. Piggy was hit by a rock thrown by Roger, causing the glasses to fall off and break. This event symbolizes the loss of reason and intellect on the island.
Piggy is the most intelligent, rational boy in the group, and his glasses represent the power of science and intellectual endeavor in society. This symbolic significance is clear from the start of the novel, when the boys use the lenses from Piggy's glasses to focus the sunlight and start a fire. When Jack's hunters raid Ralph's camp and steal the glasses, the savages effectively take the power to make fire, leaving Ralph's group helpless.
->it represent knowledge and intelligence because they had used his specs/glasses to make a fire
-> a timeline of the boys (when piggy came the glasses were clean and neat but as time went on they got dirtier and the boys became more savage)
->power of the fire ( used for food heat and only real resource of getting rescued)
-Spoiler warning-
Piggy's specs light the fire. Piggy represents logic; the voice of reason. The boys need fire for both rescue and cooking, thus making Piggy (logic) necessary for survival. This necessity is rendered obsolete, however, when Jack steals the glasses.
Piggy's glasses represent insight , and intellect. Whenever piggy got an idea his glasses sort of flashed. Its the same as when in cartoon, when a character gets an idea and a lightbulb flashes over his/her head. When jack breaks one of piggys lenses that symbolized the end of piggy's sight of intelligence, which is why he could not see his death. And even in a way that foreshadowed that piggy's death was coming soon.
It signifies the end of knowledge and knowledgeable rule on the island. The island is now going to be controlled by ignorant people.
Because the were the only thing that could make fire. Without them, making a new fire is next to impossible.
