Abstract: This thesis is dedicated to illustrate the symbolism in Hemingway’s A Farewell to Arms. In the novel, the author of the novel uses a great deal of empathic artistic methods, such as “Iceberg Theory”—a new empathic artistic method created by Hemingway himself. In all of these empathic artistic methods, symbolism is one of the most outstanding one. The novel exposes some people—the Lost Generation’s hope of escaping from the war, and their wish for a peaceful word. All the symbolic meanings served to express the theme—the war destroys the world.

摘要：本文旨在阐释海明威作品《永别了，武器》中的象征意义。在小说中，作者大量使用了移情的创作手法，例如“冰山理论”——海明威自己发明了一种手法。在所有的这些移情修辞手法中，象征是最突出的手法之一。此小说揭露了一些人——“迷失的一代”逃离战争、获得和平的美好希望。所有的象征意义都是用来表达主题——战争毁了一切。
