Hey,
Here are just a few interesting things I picked up from the books- some of it may sound familiar but there are some new stuff that I hadnt read before I researched this- enjoy :)
Name analysis:
Isabella - Most of us know that this mean beautiful in Italian which, along with her surname Swan, makes beautiful swan. This has connotations of the Ugly 小鸭 story in which the “ugly duck” who was unimportant and ignored because the most beautiful and most important of all
Jacob - His name makes “Supplanter” which when defined brings up the definition- “one who wrongfully takes the place of another” which is a great 描述 of what Jacob tries to do- take the place of Edward in Bella’s life.
Alice - I thought this was very interesting, Alice came from a nun called Alice who experienced visions and ecstasies. And we all know Alice’s power is seeing the future through visions.
Emmett - Means energetic and powerful in old German
Cullen - The name Cullen means attractive- very fitting for the Cullen family
Esme - Means beloved in old French
Seth - Means appointed and he was the 3rd son of Adam and Eve. Seth is appointed 秒 in command in Jacobs pack and if Edward and Bella are Adam and Eve, it is very fitting as Seth becomes close to them in BD.
Leah - Means weary, and she is quite weary about her life as a werewolf
Cover and 标题 analysis:
(for figurative purposes, Edward is the moon- cold and lives a life of darkness, and Jacob is the sun- warm and bright)
TWILIGHT
Title- Twilight refers to the time of 日 when the moon is coming up and this is the book where Edward is coming into Bella’s life
Cover- The 苹果 refers to the forbidden fruit, which Bella and Edward are to each other. As well as the 苹果 Snow White bit into leaving her trapped between life and death- much like what a vampire is.
NEW MOON
Title- In astronomy, the new moon is when the sun is on the opposite side of the moon from us, creating the darkest night. This is symbolic of Bella’s experiences in New Moon- the darkest period of her life. Also the moon looks like it is missing from the sky during a new moon and, Edward being the moon, is missing from most of the story as well as from Bella’s life.
Cover- Tulips are believed to represent perfect 爱情 so the wilting petal could represent Bella’s perfect 爱情 (and Edward) drifting away from her.
ECLIPSE
Title- During a solar eclipse, the moon blocks out the sun almost entirely, turning the sky to darkness and we know that this is the book that brings Edward and Jacob head to head
Cover- The cover shows a torn ribbon. This could have several meanings. It represents Bella and her unwillingness to give up her human life. The ribbon also could represent Bella herself- the bigger part being “Edwards Bella” and the smaller part being “Jacobs Bella”- and the choice that she has to make between who she should be- a choice that nearly tears her apart.
BREAKING DAWN
Title- Breaking dawn is when the sun is rising. This represents the “sun rising” in Bella’s new life- the dawn is breaking in her new vampire life. It could also represent light coming into Bella’s life- i.e. Renesmee
Cover- The Pawn which is red reflects Bella in her human life- the weakest player, filled with blood and of no particular value. The white 皇后乐队 shows her transformation to the most important, strong player of all. The white represents her new vampire self. The chess board represents and foreshadows the confrontation at the end which is solved with strategic moves rather thatn fighting- much like chess.
EXTRAS
This is just a wee extra part from Breaking Dawn-
Alice tore a page from Bella’s book- The Merchant of Venice. This foreshadows the end of Breaking Dawn as it is somewhat similar: bloodshed appears inevitable, doom approaches, and then the power is reversed and the game is won 由 some clever verbal strategies; no blood is shed, and the romantic pairings all have a happily ever after. Just like in Merchant of Venice. Cool I thought.

An innocent child in New Orleans
A simple girl from simple means
Walked the rails
Rode her thumb
She hitched a ride with everyone
The regular, she’d rearrange
The girl knew how to chop and change
Chop and change (Ooo)
Chop and change (Yeah)
Chop and change (Oh, oh, oh)
Chop and change (Yeah) alright
Took a job working late
Jacking cars from out of state
She found no 爱情 in this town
So she’d never mess around
Had no luck, but ain’t it strange
The girl knew how to chop and change
Chop and change (Oh, oh)
Chop and change (Come on, come on, come on, come on yeah)
Chop and change (Chop and change)
Chop and change (Oh)
Alright

Other lives, always tempted to trade
Will they hate me for all the choices I made
Will they stop when they see me again
I can’t stop now I know who I am
Now I’m all yours, I’m not afraid
And you’re all mine, say what they may
And all your 爱情 I’ll take to the grave
And all my life starts now
Tear me down, they can’t take 你 out of my thoughts
Under every scar there’s a battle I’ve lost
Will they stop when they see us again
I can’t stop now I know who I am
Now I’m all yours, I’m not afraid
And you’re all mine, say what they may
And all your 爱情 I’ll take to the grave
And all my life starts
I’m all yours, I’m not afraid
And you’re all mine, say what they may
And all your 爱情 I’ll take to the grave
And all my life starts
Starts now

And all your 爱情 I’ll take to the grave
And all my life starts
Starts now
Up with your turret
Aren’t we just terrified
Shale, screen your worry
From what 你 won’t ever find
Don’t let it fool you
Don’t let it fool you, down
Down’s sitting round
Folds in the gown
Sea and the rock below
Cocked to the undertow
Bones, blood and teeth erode
With every crashing node
Wings wouldn’t help you
Wings wouldn’t help you, down
Death is around
Prayer in your smile
你 barely are blinking
Wagging your face around
When’d this just become
A mortal home
Ahhhh
Won’t, won’t, won’t, won’t
Won’t let 你 talk me
Won’t let 你 talk me, down
Will pull it taut
Nothing now
Aren’t we just terrified
Shale, screen your worry
From what 你 won’t ever find
Don’t let it fool you

Bella 天鹅 was a shy girl,
she came to live with her dad who is shy as well,
She joined forks high school with no 老友记
But look how she turned out in the end,
A boyfriend whom she loves very much,
And her friend Mike who has a crush
She has entered the 邪恶力量 world
and now has to 加入 the Cullen family as well.
Victoria is back and in a hunting mood,
Edward, Bella and Jacob camping in the woods,
Bella has agreed to marry Edward
and Jacob didn't realize he isn't very clever
Honeymoon in isle Esme is oh so great
until Bella falls pregnant
She has a little girl called Renesmee
And Jacob Black imprints on her and Bella isn't happy.

Okay... maybe I was going completely phscyo- loving, crap over Renesssme....... anyway, I found a true human girl...{okay I truly do know if she is a werewolf monster like me.. except I wouldnt call her a monster, perhaps a beautiful transforming warewolf babe..]as I would think she was.. I haven't knowned alot about her completely like everything... but a little chunk of information about her, like: she loves it when I tickle her back, she loves the tribal 食物 that the pack and I make her...] stuff like that makes her go all up on me[kissing and all that.. well, 你 get what I'm trying to say} I find it very awsome when she does... she likes it when I let her sit on my lap, and drive my volkeswagon rabbit around the old dirt road. We've been a couple for over almost a year....
