    The diction and characterizations in this novel are very unique. When George and Lennie, along with a few other characters speak, their diction is very uneducated. Throughout the novel sometimes it can even prove hard to read what these men are saying. I believe Steinbeck portrays them in this way in order to imply some empathy for these men. This diction conjures a feeling of sadness for these men, as if you can feel their struggle and pain as they speak.…

From instances like Scout finding the roly poly bug to Atticus shooting the mad dog each symbol means a different thing or describes a different character in the book. Some symbols may be hard to find but there are always hidden symbols relating to the characters.

Although there are countless interpretations involving this famous story, I will be comparing my interpretation to three others. Through careful analysis of the text, I have come to suggest that the story is symbolic of the daily challenges to one’s faith. Through Goodman Brown’s perspective, the audience may see the parallels of his struggles to fight the temptation of sin to their own struggles. This perspective will be compared to a semiotic view of the story, a comparison of the story to carnivalesque freedom, and a psychoanalytical approach.…
