Enlightenment was when people started to focus more what's around them, not what church said. It's when Scientific Revolution also started. People started to explore and wanted to achieve many things. It also made people think about who should govern them and what was the purpose of the government itself. They didn't want to focus on spiritual ideas anymore.

What does symbolism mean in ELA?
Gnom [1K]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

Symbolism is when something represents a bigger idea. Symbolism is when symbols represent themes.

Figurative Language

Symbolism is a form of figurative language. Figurative language is used mainly by literature to express a complex idea by using figurative meanings. When an author uses symbolism they do not intend for their words to be taken literally.

Other forms of figurative language include

  • Idioms
  • Metaphors
  • Similes
  • Hyperboles

In all of these examples, including symbolism, an author uses nonliteral definitions to convey more complex thought processes that can be connected to the real world. Figurative language, especially symbolism, can help an author establish a theme and universal connection.

Definition of Symbolism

Symbolism is used to connect objects and people in stories to real-life ideas. There are famous examples of symbolism that can be seen in multiple different stories. For example, swans are usually seen as a symbol of peace, and roses are symbols of love. In these examples, authors have used the nonliteral definitions of swans and roses to connect the objects to ideas that affect everyone's life.

Famous Uses of Symbolism

<u>How to Kill a Mockingbird</u> is a famous book that is filled with symbolism. One of the main symbols in the book is the Mockingbird. The Mockingbird represents innocence.

"Romeo and Juliet" also uses symbolism. In the play, Queen Mab represents the dreams and desires of the characters in the story.
