What is the main theme of the book Eragon?

Answer 1

eragon is just a name of the main character. Eragon's namesake is the first Rider ever and he-who-has-brought-peace-to-the-dragon-war. I think Christopher Paolini got the name 'Eragon' from the word 'Dragon' and there is also a name 'Aragorn' so i think he just came up with eragon. I'm not the genious who came up with the name and the story so ask paolini if you want more information!

I think you mean the moral of the story right? I thought it was more about how your future can always change and that Eragon, who was a small farm boy in the beginning became a dragon rider and rebelled against an entire empire

Answer 2

The main theme of the book "Eragon" is the classic hero's journey, where a young protagonist must navigate a world of magic, dragons, and destiny to fulfill his potential and defeat evil forces. It also explores concepts of friendship, loyalty, and the balance between power and responsibility.

Answer 3

Always be true to yourself and never give up without a fight. A cliche would be "with great power comes great responsiblity", but an English teacher would not accept that. They would also say that a theme statement cannot contain "you", be advice, or a summary of the story. So, a good theme statement would probably be something like "Anger at authority leads to tragedy" (of Galbatorix killing his elders for not giving him a new dragon). I may be looking more at the series as a whole however.

Answer 4

Answer 5

Did you mean the genre or what it's about?

Either way I'll tell u both.

The genre is action, adventure and fantasy.

What its about is a young farm boy of 15 called Eragon finds a mysterious blue stone in the Spine (Forest). The stone turns out to be an egg and it hatches 4 Eragon. Eragon raises the female dragon and names her Saphira. Eragon becomes in great danger when he discoveres that he is the last dragon rider left in Alegaisia and the evil ruling king will do anything to capture Eragon & Saphira and enslave them. So Eragon and a used-to-be dragon rider called Brom set out on a fantastic journey full of action, mystery, evil, and fantasy, all the while evading the King's men and the horrible creatures the Razzac whom are enslaved to the King, to Reach the Vraden whom are the last remaining people (apart from the elves and dwarves) who still fight and stand against the King and his empire. Along the way Eragon meets many characters including Jeod, Angela, Arya and Murtagh whom has a dark and scary past and plays a very strange big part of the next book in the series, Eldest.

Overall I loved Eragon it had me hooked from the beginning and I just couldn't help myself from going out and buying the next two books in the series straight after I had finished! Cant wait 4 the 4th book to come out.

Hopefully youll luv eragon as much as i did but I garantee that you will probably love the 3rd one the best coz everyone Ive asked (including myself) jave said its the best book in the series so far.

Answer 6

Everything in life takes sacrifices, and our futures are not set in stone. Even the smallest farmboy can rise up and topple an Empire. Sometimes, the good of the many outweighs the good of the few, or the one.
