Define universal themes in literature

Using the Universal Theme knowledge point
A universal theme is an idea, central message, or conflict that applies to anyone, anywhere, regardless of cultural or historical differences. It addresses fundamental aspects of the human condition.

Analyze statement I

Using the Universal Theme knowledge point
Statement I ("A person confronts nature") represents the classic "Man vs. Nature" conflict. This is a fundamental human experience explored across global literature throughout history, making it a universal theme.

Analyze statement II

Using the Universal Theme knowledge point
Statement II ("A person rebels against society's norms") represents the classic "Man vs. Society" conflict. The struggle between individual desires and societal expectations is a timeless, cross-cultural concept, making it a universal theme.

Analyze statement III

Using the Universal Theme knowledge point
Statement III ("A person feels conflicted between passion and responsibility") represents an internal conflict ("Man vs. Self"). This emotional and moral dilemma is experienced by people in all eras and cultures, making it a universal theme.

Determine the correct option

Using the Universal Theme knowledge point
Since all three statements (I, II, and III) represent fundamental human conflicts that serve as universal themes, the correct choice must include all of them.
