Theme Notes

Theme is the central idea of a work of literature
Theme is the moral of the story, its the life lesson the author wants to give you
The theme is usualy universal
The theme is that all people should live up to their responsability
Subject+Theme is a theme is the idea the writer expresses on that subject
Theme is not very ovious
Making generalizations is similar to knowing themes
The author expects you to find the theme in your mind
A book can have many different themes
A book can have very diferent themes and its up to the reader to know the best theme
If a main character is changing in a good way then the reader could say the theme is something good
If a character changes in a bad way then we would avoid making the characters choices

To find theme consider:
A)Changes in the Character
B)Whatch statements of theme
C)Look at the title
D)Look at the main conflict

Mankind vs. Nature
Man vs Man
Man vs Himself

Theme is a debatable opinion about a subject
