Why Authors Use Symbolism
Many authors embed subtle images into their work to
make it deeper, richer, more meaningful and colorful.
Writers may also use symbolism to allude to a mood or feeling without
coming out and stating that particular emotion.
For example, a lily to
represent purity or a ray of
sunshine to
represent hope.
