Abstract
Absalom,Absalom! has long been seen as one of William Faulkner's supreme creations,in which Faulkner exhibits his technical virtuosity and aesthetic genius to the full.This paper is to analyze the polyphonic features in the novel: the heroes' narration with independent self-consciousness,dialogism and unfinalizability on the basis of Mikhail Bakhtin's polyphonic theory.
