I wouldn’t let him see my cry, I was so enraged. He used a

Symbolic Bovine
.... Flaubert specifically mentions that "the windowpanes were covered with frost each morning (80).
Symbolism is used throughout Madame Bovary to subtly enhance the meaning of the written words.

The Night Journey In Heart Of
.... and mental traits by Conrad. The reader is involved with the interaction between the two characters. As I support the thesis that man moves from innocence to experience and becomes acquainted with evil in the novella, I have interpreted the character of Marlow as the embodiment of good, and Kurtz as that of evil, (although not entirely).
The events of the night journey of Heart of Darkness are described through the character of Marlow who acts as a mediator as he tells the story. Depth and meaning .....

With this book, you have to read between the lines. If you're familiar with the Bible, the references
won't confuse you at all. Some of the metaphors used are simply superfluous, but the themes
