The first apparant theme in Rapunzel is that forbidden temptations may cost you something you truly love. In the beginning of the story, Rapunzel's mother was "standing by [the] window and looking down into the garden, when she saw a bed which was planted with the most beautiful rampion, and it looked so fresh and green that she longed for it" (1). This already shows bad temptation, considering that the rampion is not hers, therefore she shouldn't take it without asking. She asked her husband to get her some, going as far as saying "if I can't eat some of the rampion . . . I shall die" (1). The husband complied, although he knows it is a wrong thing to do, shown when he thinks to himself, "bring her some of the rampion yourself, let it cost what it will" (1).
Point of view is the perspective on which the story is being told
1. To support the topic of the paragraph
2.To wrap up your paper and close it off
3. Show where you got your work so you don't get flagged for plagerism
- why school should start later
- why marijuana should be legalized
- dress code being unfair
