You should interpret the potential symbolic meaning of the following images in Paul's daydream on page 119-20:
- monk's cemetery in the cloister garden
- Stations of the Cross (look this general reference up for cultural literacy and this assignment)
- the poplar avenue
- the uniform and the rifle
Remember that symbolism doesn't have to be remote and "deep"-- it can be simple or representative (hence the "symbol" in symbolism). Some symbols in this passage are more complex than others.
Chapter 7 is due on Friday.
