Question

question 5
what is symbolism?
a tale that involves king arthur or his knights and includes chivalric behavior
the use of objects to represent the meaning of abstract ideas or qualities
a brief, objective account of a text
a recurring object or character

Explanation:

Symbolism is a literary and artistic device. It uses concrete objects (symbols) to represent abstract concepts or qualities. For example, a dove can symbolize peace. The first option describes a chivalric tale (like Arthurian legends), the third is a summary (not symbolism), and the fourth is about a recurring element (not the definition of symbolism).

Answer:

the use of objects to represent the meaning of abstract ideas or qualities.
