Throughout the story “Things Fall Apart” by Chinua Achebe, many themes are present. Achebe develops these themes and conveys them through characterization, imagery, symbolism, plotlines, and irony. The most prevalent theme in the story is violence which is best developed through characterization and plotline. The main character Okonkwo faces internal conflicts throughout the story and reacts to his problems using violence. A good example of this is found when the missionaries proselyte in the tribe. Okonkwo faces the problem of a change in tradition as tribe members convert to christianity. Okonkwo feels it necessary to uphold the long standing traditions. In order to keep tribe members from converting into christains, Okonkwo's first resort is violence. He suggests they harm the newly converted members. This aggressive perspective is an example of how violence is a theme in the story. When Okonkwo resorts to violence, the theme of violence is displayed through a plotline. Plotlines can develop the theme through the different stories told in a novel. The theme of violence was also developed through characterization. Achebe described Okonkwo saying “To avoid picking up Unoka's traits, Okonkwo acts violently without thinking, often provoking avoidable fights. He has a bad temper and rules his household with fear.” When an author creates a clear picture of a character the author is developing the theme through characterization. This theme of violence is prevalent throughout the story and can be found through characterization, imagery, symbolism, plotlines, or the use of irony.

the author is intending to draw attention to the plight of refugees, editorial and biography support this. both workpieces make the reader empathize with enrique as well as with the other young migrants from central america. the writer, however, is using a different approach to each text.

the editorial includes strong words to persuade readers. he is trying hard to convince readers in the us to change its refugee approach.

the biography relies on narrative techniques and figurative language which the writer uses wisely in the setting, characterization, and personification to educate readers on the topic.
