Abstract
Symbolic imagery is an important element of cross-cultural literary studies and plays an important role in cross-cultural literary studies. Symbolic imagery is often related to the emotion and theme of the work, and there are significant cultural differences, if not fully understood, it will lead to the loss of the original image and the lack of cultural connotation. Therefore, it is necessary to pay attention to the cross-cultural literary research of symbolic imagery, and grasp its commonality in the literary and artistic theories of Chinese and Western personalities. Imagery is defined differently in China and the West, but it is an element . The understanding of imagery can be divided into: "extension" and "connotation", which can be understood from the shared context or the special context, which is of great significance to our cross-cultural literature research.
