摘要：This essay is aimed at revealing the psychological predicament of the contemporary people through analyzing the symbolic meaning of cage and god in The Hairy Ape. In the late 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century, capitalism appeared and then developed rapidly. Science and technology were also developing. All these resulted in contemporary people’s identity crisis and bewilderment. The analysis of the symbolic meaning of cage and god may be conducive to readers’ further comprehension of Yank’s experience in finding self-belonging and freedom.
