I study the notion of "allegory" from a new angle . It think it is not only a notion of rhetoric or poetics and the form of the art works , but also a pervasive understanding fashion and observing world mode . It materialize the changing course of pepole's studying of the nature and themselves , which is as the same as the press of development of time and history .1 state this opinion from four aspects :Firstly I present my studying thoughtfulness after comparing and analyzing many definitions form dictionaries and important theorist. I think it is a fashion and observing mode.In the second part, I depart the history of allegory development into five phases: 1 The origin of allegory . 2 The departure of allegory and mythos. During this period, the allegory was formed primarily. 3. To religion, the allegory's catering and deviating. It's represented by the Middle Age fables. 4. The strange uniting of allegory and nature , history . It indicated the naissance of allegory . 5. The meeting of allegory and symbol. The modern allegory notion was established.Then I comment the modern allegory theory ,which was based by Walter Benjamin . He put this form on the base of history and presented its nature : opposition to symbol, rupture, destroying, and messianic .At last, I comment the allegory's new development in contemporary . Based on Fredric Jameson's allegory theory , I discuss allegory's expatiating and animadverton politics and ideology . I think it is a tool for people to self--reflect, rebel andeliminate the imaginative from mythos .
