The Role of Themes in Literature

The Role of Themes in Literature  Themes are the central ideas or messages that an author is trying to convey through a literary work. They can explore universal human experiences, societal issues, or philosophical concepts, and they can add depth and meaning to a story beyond its surface-level plot. For example, in George Orwell's "1984," the themes of totalitarianism, surveillance, and the abuse of power reflect the author's concerns about the dangers of authoritarian governments. Similarly, the themes of love, loss, and redemption in Khaled Hosseini's "The Kite Runner" explore the complex relationships between fathers and sons, as well as the impact of war and displacement on personal identity.
