Abstract

This research explores symbolism, commencing with the concept of symbolic
direction and subsequently analyzing various symbolic elements within the
novel. It begins by investigating symbolism in the title, cover, and colors,
progressively examining symbolic aspects related to events, characters, and
settings, ultimately considering three dimensions. The study unearths the
profound layers of the text, leading to a conclusion that summarizes key
findings. To achieve its objectives, the research underscores the presence of
symbolism in contemporary Palestinian literature, noting its implication in
exploring the depth of this literary trend. In addressing the central question of
how symbolism is embodied in the study sample and contributes to the author's
profound objectives, numerous prose works have emerged on the Palestinian
scene, gaining popularity for their artistic maturity. This phenomenon is
exemplified in the novel "I Wish I were Blind" by the novelist Walid Al-
Sharafa. The research's significance lies in its unique approach to studying this
specific sample, which has not been previously examined from a symbolic
perspective.
