Explanation:
A motif is a literary term that is an idea, object, or concept that repeats itself throughout a text. A motif gives clues to theme or reinforces ideas an author wants to emphasize.
A motif generally reinforces the theme of the text.
A motif must be repeated throughout a text to be considered a motif. However, the motif may appear in various forms.
For example, “death” could be a motif in a literary work. An author would not necessarily have to use the word “death” to express the motif. He might write “funeral,” “grave,” “dead,” and so on. Furthermore, he could depict death-like images to add to the motif.
All of the language and imagery would contribute to the motif. The motif itself would contribute to the author’s theme.
