Stylistics is a branch of linguistics which plays a major role in understanding and interpreting literature. As such, this study sheds light on the stylistic study of symbolism specifically syntactic and pragmatic symbolism. Symbolism phenomenon is widely used in literary texts particularly novels. For that reason, the present study has set itself to tackle this issue in selected situations taken from Emily Bronte's novel Wuthering Heights. Substantially, this study aims to identify both types of symbolism (syntactic and pragmatic). It attempts to find out the most common type of symbolism. It also aims to determine the different syntactic devices and pragmatic strategies by adopting several stylistic tools.
