1. To have a theme is an important part of writing because you are not able to to express the lesson oe the message you are trying to convey in your short story or poems or plays.
having a theme enables the audience grasp the key idea that you as a writter is /or trying to emphasize. A great piece of literature has to have an idea that it expresses because without any idea/lesson/theme no one would try to emphsize, the audience may elaborate or hyporthisizebut may not have a clear or broad vision of it. but sometimes the writer may use descriptive langauge to emphasize their message and in that case we as audience members have to read between the lines to understand the message that is brought out. an example of a book that i read would be kite runner in which the author uses description during the scene where hassan is rapped "it was clear but people could interpret it another way and not as arape scene.
2.in my opinion i think the survive because most of the things the wrote about trully happened in their era and it also gives as an idea of writing ,what makes them survive would be great use of vivid langauge , description, they bring the concept of moral issues in which people might relate to , if we compare the author of today and the older ones i think the sales might be different in that the authors of today in that people don't easily buy a book because it 's a best seller ,they buy books of the message they are trying to reveal. another thing that is so different would be authors of this century try to bend the truth and the the lie about it e.g a million little pieces.
3.i would love to be "if i were i writer to be remembered through my writing and the great works that i have accomplished as a writer. being rememberesd as a great epic writer of my time and being a person that people look up to and they countinue with the journey that i have already started for them. without any impact you made on people's lives you cannot be redemned as writer but as a fake cold hearted person with a vengance. A great writer would have impact of people because they love and inspire to be the author who writes larvish and remarkable story or theme, they are many advantages to them.
~ people have fresh memory about the story
~people want to know what happens next(mistery or suspense, makes it worth while)as a writer i would definitely make a historical landmark like the great authors of time.
