二十世纪澳大利亚文学有了进一步的发展。以帕特里克.怀特为代表的现代派文学是这个时期的主流。而象征手法的巧妙运用更是怀特小说的最显著的特点之一。怀特的大部分小说都深深地植根于象征之中,象征成了他思想的载体。他善于从平凡的世界里发掘出超凡的内涵,并赋予看似一般的生活一种深刻的寓意。他借助于象征手法,从多个侧面来反映小说的内在意义:或以人物为载体,或以题目为象征,或以题材取胜,而更多的是以小说主题和细节来揭示蕴含其中的象征意义。
Twentieth-century Australian literature has been further developed. Modernist literature, represented by Patrick White, is the mainstream of this period. The clever use of symbolism is one of the most notable features of the White novels. Most of Wright’s novels are deeply rooted in the symbols, symbolizing the carrier of his ideas. He is good at discovering the extraordinary connotation from the ordinary world and giving a profound implication to seemingly ordinary life. By means of symbolism, he reflects on the intrinsic meaning of the novel from many aspects: the character is the carrier or the subject is the symbol or the subject is used to win, and the more is to reveal the symbolic implication in the theme and detail of the novel significance.
