Best Answer

the theme is a bit of philosophy that the story is attempting to convey.

eg. 'Romance dies when the children are borne.'

setting is the time, place, and social situation where the story takes place.

Well, honey, let me break it down for you. The theme is the big idea or message that the author wants you to take away from the story, like "love conquers all" or "money can't buy happiness." The setting is just where the story takes place, like a fancy mansion in the Hamptons or a rundown diner in the middle of nowhere. So, in short, theme is the moral of the story, and setting is just where the drama unfolds.
