My Divergent theme paragraph (Emma)

In the story of “ Divergent” many themes are being created about the story, many themes include, choices, family, bravery, fear, identity, power etc. These topics are what the book
“ Divergent ” is about stated in one word, but these topics are also used to be made into a sentence which is called a “ theme” . There are many possible themes for this book, but the one main topic I used for my theme is “ Family “. My theme for Divergent is “ Family Bonds are not easily broken”. This theme is supported by many textual examples from the book such as, “ I didn’t know what I would do when I found you, but it was always my intention to save you”. The second example is when her mother sacrifices herself for Tris when they were going to meet Tris’s father and Caleb at the intersection of North and Farfield as it is shown on page 647, when her mother got shot and she dies for Tris because she loves her. Another example is when her dad also sacrifices himself for Tris on page 686, because he tells her that he loves her and he helps clean her wounds and that he told her that god will help her on page 681. Another example is when Caleb told her that he doesn’t want her to risk her life for him and that he is worried because he doesn’t want her to die and that he loves her as he said on page 684 “ I can’t stay here while you go up there and risk your life” . So those were some of the example that supported this theme. There are also many themes that can fit this book and this is an example of one theme in Divergent with textual examples.

  1. I like how you start your paragraph and also you use direct quotes to support your reason which is amazing. Your structure is great because you used all parts of TREE and I really like your theme statements because to me it makes sense.
