This learning resource provides an in-depth exploration of symbolism and allegory in literature, focusing on how these concepts help authors convey deeper messages. It specifically examines the allegorical elements found in 'The Little Prince' by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry. The resource defines symbolism as the use of simple objects, characters, or places to represent larger ideas—illustrated by examples such as the rose symbolizing love and responsibility.
