What does the apple mean on the front of twilight?

Answer 1

Twilght: The apple= the fruit of forbidden love

New Moon: The flower with the falling petal= the flower is Bella and the petal is the part of her that she lost when edward left her.

Eclispe: The broken ribbon= the ribbon stands for thhe love she has for edward and Jacob; the longer ribbon, of course, stands for edward.

Breaking Dawn: The white & red Chess peices= Red pawn stands for when she was mortal and the white queen stands for when she becomes immortal.

Answer 2

The apple on the cover of Twilight represents "forbidden fruit." I used the scripture from Genesis (located just after the table of contents) because I loved the phrase "the fruit of the knowledge of good and evil." Isn't this exactly what Bella ends up with? A working knowledge of what good is, and what evil is. The nice thing about the apple is it has so many symbolic roots. You've got the apple in Snow White, one bite and you're frozen forever in a state of not-quite-death... Then you have Paris and the golden apple in Greek mythology-look how much trouble that started. Apples are quite the versatile fruit. In the end, I love the beautiful simplicity of the picture. To me it says: choice."

Answer 3

onlne Stephenie Meyer said that it symbolises forbidden fruit or choice. She also thought that it meant that Bella had to disover what good and evil really meant. I also read in a book that apples symbolise love and fertility, the roundness of them also means eternity (as in vampires live for ever) and the earth. I don't think the hand means much, but in the movie Bella drops an apple at lunch and edward catches it just like on the cover.

Answer 4

I think.. Not sure

________________________________________________

No, Bella is holding the apple, as the cover is based on genesis. Edward is the forbidden fruit, the apple, and Bella is Eve who takes the forbidden fruit.

Actually it is Edward on the cover of Twilight holding the apple, not Bella.

Answer 5

Edward If you see carefully, in film and book, Bella drops apple, and Edward catches it! Twilight Maniac - Its Bella, as the cover is based on gensis, and Edward is the forbidden fruit and Bella is Eve who take's the forbidden fruit. Actully on the front cover.....edward AND Bella and holding the apple. look carefully, do they look look like the hands of one person....look hard.
