The main point of concentration in the paper is to define the notion of paralysis in terms of symbolism and narratives in the short story “Eveline” in Dubliners, and to show how different symbols and different voices draw upon the desired theme of the author; how the notions such as religion, language and nationality are packed into variant symbols in order to enhance their significant function in issue of paralysis and how the various methods of narration can depict the nature of paralysis with which the characters struggle. The dilemma of his plots revolves around at least one of notions. Joyce believes that for a man to seek and reach the true nature of freedom in his life, it is necessary to leave these boundaries behind. Usually in most cases, most characters in Joyce's writings are captive by those frame. They are put in a dramatic situation in which a revelation would lead a protagonist to an epiphany. Joyce's use of symbolism and realism and also his different layers of narration is what endow significance, life and appeal to the simple plots of his stories. As a keen reader, we can find that it is important not to trace the cause for Eveline's decision not leaving Dublin, but to understand Eveline's psychological process, her memory in childhood and her pity and commitment for her parents in the stages-of-life.
