Classic literature
Timelessness
A good piece of literature can be enjoyed by readers from generation to generation. That is timelessness. FOR EXAMPLE: Shakepeare's works are enjoyed as much today as they were when they were first written, hundreds of years ago. But why? How did he do it? Well, by carefully choosing his theme is one way.
Theme
A theme is the underlying meaning of a piece of literature. It usually includes an observation about life. It could be the moral of the story, a teaching or an observation of human experience.
How Can You Determine a Theme?
You are never actually TOLD what the theme is in a story. You determine the theme from the characters, action in a story. In short, you must determine the theme on your own. Some examples include:
Aladin - The theme could be describe as: love is not earned through riches of the wallet, but of the heart. How would you describe it?
Beauty and the Beast - The theme could be described as: You must look beyond the package and look for what's inside.
Universal Themes
Universal themes add to the timelessness of a piece because they relate to us all--either in our experiences or in our dreams. Some universal themes readers enjoy include:
love conquers all
good vs. evil
rags to riches
Communicating Across Cultures
Literature is an excellent vehicle for communicating ideas
across cultures. Writers from around the world speak
from their own experiences and write about theme that related to their own land. By reading the literature from other countries or different areas of our own country, we can learn so much about how others view life.
