Throughout the ages, Water, in its various forms as salty sea water, fresh river water, or even water-like temporality, has always played an indispensable role in the world of literature. Countless literature works focus on water or uses images of water as a medium of expression. This article aims to uncover the subtle role the images of water play in 19th-century literature and analyze why it prevails as a duplicitous but indispensable image mainly from perspectives of Bioanalysis, religion, and Psychoanalysis.
