Imagery analysis is a commonly used analytical method in literary analysis. In Angela Carter’s work, the image of wolves is particularly prominent. Her “Werewolf Tetralogy” rewrites traditional culture and subverts traditional consciousness, and is the research object of many scholars. Starting from the analysis of the wolf image in The Company of Wolves, this paper uses Deleuze’s Becoming-Animal Theory to explore the construction of harmony between nature, humans and gender relations in The Company of Wolves.
