Abstract

Both Lawrence and Su Tong showed their concerns about the impact on human beings caused by the social changes. The two writers used symbolic images in their novels. Lawrence and Su Tong showed different writing skills in using symbols. Su Tong was influenced a lot by modern western literature, so their writing styles are different even on the similar topic. Since symbols are so important in Sons and Lovers and The Family of Opium Poppy, this paper tries to make a comparative study of the symbols in the two novels and try to find out the reason for the usage of symbols.
