What is an example of a theme in literature?

Good vs. evil.
Love conquers all.
Life is a journey.
Death with dignity.

The correct answer is: Good vs. evil.

Possible explanation A theme in literature is a universal idea that is present throughout a story. Good vs. evil is a common theme as it explores the struggle between opposing forces. Option B, love conquers all, may be a theme in some stories, but it is not a universal theme present in all literature. Option C, life is a journey, is a common idea but it does not encompass the depth and complexity of a theme. Option D, death with dignity, may be a theme in some works, but it is not a universal theme present in all literature. Therefore, option A is the most accurate example of a theme in literature.
