SYMBOLISM

Symbolism is the use of symbols in a story or bookan example could be objects, characters, or represent ideas. In Flowers For Algernon the symbolism is Charlie Gordon and Algernon going through the experiment. For Charlie the symbolism would be he went from having a low IQ to probably the smartest person ever. For Algernon the symbolism would be going from a normal rat to a smart lab rat that could go through a maze quicker than charlie before the operation. The symbolism for Flowers For Algernon is that two people going through the same thing can be really close and connected. Charlie letting Algernon out of his cage and leaving the laboratory was a symbol of not only being free but mentally free
for Charlie and Algernon.

  1. Flowers are a part of our lives. We are welcome in this life by flowers, celebrate the most important moments with flowers and we retire surrounded by them. In the vase or pot, in the bouquet or arrangement, in our places, garden or parks, the flowers give an emotion, are a reason for us to be happy, melancholy, pleased, content or full of respect. One thing is for sure, the flowers are the sincere messengers of our feelings.
