Atreides And The Arrakis Analysis

I thought that the main conflict was between the house of Atreides and the house of Harkonnens. The conflict was for the spice on the planet Arrakis as it is the most valuable trading source in the universe. The Harkonnens desired for the planet Arrakis while the Atreides got it. The Harkonnens would make plans to destroy the Atreides or have them hand Arrakis to them. However, the Atreides resisted and defended themselves from the Harkonnens. The climax was the part of the story that had the most action. I think that the climax of the story was when the Emperor and the Harkonnens invaded Arrakis.

In order to gain power, the characters had to make others fear them. With a lot of violence fear was felt throughout the story. Another less major theme is family. The different houses were different families and they fought as families to be the most powerful house. Paul and his mother had to fight for the house Atreides after Duke Leto died. Lastly, gender roles were a theme in the book because many of the different titles/roles were restricted to certain genders. For example, all the Bene Gesserit were women and all the “leaders” of the houses were men. Women would be married off for alliances or “assistants” and the men would be trained as
