Through text analysis, we can clearly see that the use of symbols plays quite important role in deepening the themes, enriching the connotations, expanding the reader's imagination space and enhancing the tension of D. H. Lawrence's literary works. As a kind of literary expression approach, symbolism is of vital importance in literary creation. D. H. Lawrence's skillful use of symbolism creates striking artistic effect. Probing into D. H. Lawrence's use of symbolism is beneficial for one's correctly grasping the deeper meaning of his literary works and enhancing understanding of his artistic styles.
