Purpose: to identify the definitions of allegory and symbol.
Tasks:
Fill in your note sheet.
• allegory (AL-eh-GOR-ee): a narrative that serves as an extended metaphor. Allegories are written in the
form of fables, parables, poems, stories, and almost any other style or genre. The main purpose of an
allegory is to tell a story that has characters, a setting, as well as other types of symbols, that have both
literal and figurative meanings. The difference between an allegory and a symbol is that an allegory is a
complete narrative that conveys abstract ideas to get a point across, while a symbol is a representation
of an idea or concept that can have a different meaning throughout a literary work (A Handbook to
Literature). One well-known example of an allegory is Dante’s The Divine Comedy. In Inferno (part of
Divine Comedy), Dante is on a pilgrimage to try to understand his own life, but his character also
represents every man who is in search of his purpose in the world (Merriam Webster Encyclopedia of
Literature). Although Virgil literally guides Dante on his journey through the mystical inferno, he can
also be seen as the reason and human wisdom that Dante has been looking for in his life. See A
Handbook to Literature, Merriam Webster’s Encyclopedia of Literature.
In summary, an allegory is a story that has a deeper or more general meaning in addition to its surface
meaning. Allegories are composed of several symbols or metaphors.
• symbol (sim-bol): a symbol is a word or object that stands for another word/idea object. The object or
word can be seen with the eye but the other (abstract idea) is not visible. For example a dove stands for
peace.; the green door represents hope in the short story “American History.” The dove can be seen and
peace cannot. The word is from the Greek word symbolom. In the Bible, the book of Genesis has a few
symbols. In the story of Adam and Eve when Eve ate the apple, the apple stood for sin. Another
reading in the Bible is Cain and Able. The two brothers stood for good and evil, humility and pride.
Cain pulled Able to the fields and killed him. In this it is a hidden symbol. It is showing that Cain stands
for the bad and Able stands for the good. See The Encyclopedia of Literature and A Handbook to
Literature.

Faith represents stability of the home. As her name
suggests, she appears to be the most pure-hearted
person in the story & serves as a stand-in of sorts for all
religious feeling.
"Poor little Faith!" thought he, for his heart smote him.
"What a wretch am I to leave her on such an errand!
…'t would kill her to think it. Well, she's a blessed angel
on earth; and after this one night I'll cling to her skirts
and follow her to heaven." (2)
Goodman Brown clings to her when he questions the
goodness of the people around him, assuring himself
that if Faith remains godly, then his own faith is worth
fighting temptation to maintain.
"Well, then, to end the matter at once," said Goodman
Brown, considerably nettled, "there is my wife, Faith. It
would break her dear little heart; and I'd rather break
my own." (3)
However, there is an
insinuation that Faith has
been corrupted. This
suspicion could show
Brown’s ability to truly
become estranged from
the goodness of God.
"My Faith is gone!" cried
he, after one stupefied
moment.
“There is no good on
earth; and sin is but a
name. Come, devil; for to
thee is this world given."

Purpose: to identify common archetypes in YGB
Tasks:
1. Re-read "Young Goodman Brown" together.
2. As you read, add archetypes to your chart.
Outcome:
• What are the most predominate archetypes? (consider selecting 1 from each of
4 categories)
• How do the ones you’ve selected work together to create an allegorical theme*
(central message)? What is that message?
1.
2.
What recurring themes do you see, if any, in the text?
How do recurring patterns and our understanding of these patterns affect
our understanding of the text?
*Allegory is a figure of speech in which abstract ideas and principles are described
in terms of characters, figures and events. It can be employed in prose and poetry
to tell a story with a purpose of teaching an idea and a principle or explaining an
idea or a principle. The objective of its use is to preach some kind of a moral lesson.

• Returns
Purpose: to demonstrate you understanding of archetypes in the short story “Young Goodman
Brown” by Nathaniel Hawthorn.
Task: Write a short constructed response that…
• identifies the genre, title, and author and allegorical theme (lesson)
• gives two examples from the short story.
• explains how each example fits a particular archetypal situation, character, setting, or symbol*
•
look at the explanation/definition of the archetype and incorporate the definitions of the archetypes into
your analysis
The movie Shrek is an animated movie about a green ogre, by the name of
Shrek, whose wood-land home becomes a refugee camp of displaced fairy-tale
beings and is a prime example of a quest journey. During a quest, the hero is
looking for something or someone that, when brought back, will restore order or
well-being. In order to regain his swamp, Shrek travels along with an annoying
donkey in order to bring Princess Fiona to a scheming lord, who wishes himself
King. This task will restore his life, his wood-land home, to its previous tranquility.
Another archetype found in Shrek is symbolic color. For example, Fiona is often
shown wearing green and sometimes blue. The color green typically symbolizes
“fertility, renewal and wealth” and blue is “nobility” and/or “tranquility.” These
archetypes represent Fiona as a princess but also as a source that can restore order
(renewal) to Shrek and the fairy-beings.
