Abstract

American writer Harper Lee’s outstanding work To Kill a Mockingbird is one of the most popular books among teenagers and has been widely read. As an autobiographic novel which based on Harper Lee’s own childhood life and experiences, To Kill a Mockingbird tells a story in the fictitious town of Maycomb, and the people there all have their own features. Harper Lee uses a number of symbols in the book such as the title itself as well as symbols of flowers and symbols of other items to add significance to the book. This thesis analyzes the meanings of different symbols, from the most important ones to the relatively less important ones. Through studying on the figures’ living environment and characteristics, connecting them with the corresponding symbols, it comes to the conclusion that serious social issues such as rape and racial discrimination coexist with goodness. They can be changed with people making efforts but they can never be eradicated. 

Key words: To Kill a Mockingbird; Symbols; Racial discrimination
