SYMBOLISM IN LITERATURE What is it?
Symbolism is the use of symbols to signify ideas and qualities by giving them symbolic meanings that are different from their literal sense. Symbolism can take different forms. Generally, it is an object representing another to give it an entirely different meaning that is much deeper and more significant. Sometimes, however, an action, an event or a word spoken by someone may have a symbolic value.
EXAMPLES In Nathaniel Hawthorne’s The Scarlet Letter, the letter 'A' symbolized adultery.
In Edgar Allan Poe’s “The Raven”, the black bird stands for death and loss.
