Abstract

Edgar Allan Poe, the-19th-century famous American poet, short story writer and literary critic, is one of the pioneers of the modern detective stories and science fiction.  Poe’s Black Cat is a short story, and it’s one of his representative works. It tells a story about an evil protagonist for killing his cats and his wife. With no guilt, he hides his wife’s corpse. Finally the crime is revealed. Poe uses several writing techniques in the short story, among which symbolism is a prominent one. This essay is to analyze the symbolic meanings of the black cats, of the characters and of the fire and the wall so as to reveal the human nature represented and questioned by the writer and thereby interpret the good and evil nature of human beings embodied in Poe’s short stories and consequently, understand Poe’ s story writing.
