Abstract：Gabriel Garcia Marquez is a well-known representative figure of Latin American magical realism. Love in the Time of Cholera is the first work Marquez published after he won the Nobel Prize in Literature. When talking about Marquez, people will think of One Hundred Years of Solitude at once. However Love in the Time of Cholera is also very important in the history of Latin American literature. It has been considered as a work of great genius. The novel has been studied and analyzed by critics from various perspectives. Yet the secrets of its charm are still hidden waiting for readers to explore. It is like a riddle that has different answers to different people. This thesis will analyze the novel from the aspect of symbolism. Symbolism is widely used in literary works, like poetry, plays and novels. Marquez uses a lot of symbols in this novel in order to deepen its theme and better explain the relationship between love and death.
The thesis is made up of four chapters. Chapter One introduces Marquez, Love in the Time of Cholera and previous studies on the novel. Chapter Two gives a detailed description of symbolism. Chapter Three is the backbone of this thesis, devoted to specific analysis of symbolic features in this novel. It deals with three main symbolic aspects—title, objects and characters. Chapter Four is the conclusion, summarizing the main points of the whole thesis.
