Abstract

In Pakistan, symbolism emerged in 1958 during the Marshal law Period. In
the first decade of 1970, it introduced new topics in short stories. The writers
highlighted the political oppression and pressure of dictatorship through symbolism. In
Saraiki literature, symbolic short stories contain the different topics such as
oppression, deprivation, injustice, revolt against feudalism extortion etc. In number of
short stories the colour of abstraction is quite visible rather than symbolism. The
symbols which have been elaborated in Saraiki short stories purely belong to Saraiki
culture and landscape.
