| [[Setting (narrative)|Setting]] as a form of [[Artistic symbol|symbolism]] or [[allegory]] || The setting is both the time and geographic location within a narrative or within a work of fiction; sometimes, storytellers use the setting as a way to represent deeper ideas, reflect characters' emotions, or encourage the audience to make certain connections that add complexity to how the story may be interpreted.||The novel ''[[Ulysses (novel)|Ulysses]]'' by James Joyce is set in [[Dublin]], [[Ireland]],  over the course of a single day, 16 June 1904. The novel spans from [[Sandycove]] in the South to [[Howth Head]] in the North, with detailed descriptions of [[Dublin]] locations that parallel those in [[Homer|Homer's]] ''[[Odyssey]]''. [[Leopold Bloom]]'s home at [[7 Eccles Street]] serves as a modern-day [[Homer's Ithaca|Ithaca]], while other landmarks represent various episodes of the Odyssey.
ِAlso, in [[Tayeb Salih]]'s ''[[Season of Migration to the North]]'' (1966), the setting is crucial. The story begins in the Sudanese village of Wad Hamed before shifting to [[London|London, England]]. This contrast between the two locations highlights the protagonist Mustafa Saeed's struggle with cultural, social, and psychological challenges as he moves between his homeland and the West. Wad Hamed symbolizes tradition and rural life, while London represents modernity and colonial influence. Salih skillfully employs setting to explore themes of identity, cultural clash, and colonialism's enduring impact.<ref>{{Cite journal |last=Murad |first=Rimun |date=2018 |title=Emotional Distance: Transnational Pleasure in Tayeb Salih's Season of Migration to the North |url=https://www.jstor.org/stable/10.13169/arabstudquar.40.3.0213 |journal=Arab Studies Quarterly |volume=40 |issue=3 |pages=213–232 |doi=10.13169/arabstudquar.40.3.0213 |jstor=10.13169/arabstudquar.40.3.0213 |issn=0271-3519}}</ref>
