EXPLORING THE HEART OF HUMANITY: HUMANITARIAN THEMES IN O. HENRY'S SHORT STORIES

Abstract

O. Henry's short stories are celebrated for their profound humanitarian themes, reflecting a deep empathy for human nature and the complexities of human emotions and relationships. His narratives often focus on the lives of ordinary people, highlighting their struggles, sacrifices, and small acts of kindness. Central to many of his stories is the theme of love, portrayed in its various forms—romantic, familial, and platonic—and the lengths to which people will go for those they care about. Additionally, economic hardship is a recurring motif, underscoring the resilience and resourcefulness of individuals facing financial adversity. Through his use of irony and twist endings, O. Henry not only entertains but also poignantly reveals the innate goodness and altruism that can emerge even in the most challenging circumstances. His stories, characterized by vivid characters and everyday settings, serve as timeless reminders of the enduring strength of the human spirit and the universal need for compassion and understanding.
