Best theme for the poem “translating grandfathers house”

English
1 answer:

Answer:

Conformity.

Explanation:

A theme of any text can be the subject, the central topic or idea that is brought into play, or what the author wants to reveal or pass to the readers. Themes are the 'line' within which the story or plot revolves around and makes a connection between all the other aspects of the story.

In E. J. Vega's "Translating My Grandfather's House", the narrator's drawing of his grandfather's house was unrealistic for his teacher and classmates. So, he had to conform along the lines of what they believe to be realistic instead of accepting the truth. He knows what he drew was the truth but he had to change it to be accepted by the others.

Therefore, the<u> </u><u>best theme for this poem is conformity and the need to be 'one' with the masses/ popular belief</u>.

AVprozaik [17]

<em>Once</em><em> up</em><em>on </em><em>a </em><em>mid</em><em>night </em><em>drear</em><em>y, </em>
