The carousel Scene

In the physiological or moral development of Holden where he shows signs of growing up. When Holden decides to not get onto the carousel this symbols his growth because to Holden a carousel could be a continuous cycle of childhood, and when he takes off his hat, that is his way of stepping out of childhood and into adult hood.

The carousel scene. The carousel symbolizes childhood, and he watches Phoebe as she's on it, showing that he's starting to become an adult. The kids reaching for the gold ring, symbolizes the trial and error of life, and Holden is starting to realize that sometimes people have to "fall" in order to learn.

Theme of preservation vs change. Everything is still in the museum in the exhibits. Every time Holden comes to the museum, he is changed. Yet, Holden wants to stay preserved and keep his childlike innocence. He has a fear of change. The museum is contrast to the real world. In the museum, everything is preserved. Outside that museum, is unpredictable chaos that he can not control.

I think the scene where Holden gives Phoebe his hunters hat shows his development from childhood to adult hood since the hat symbolized childhood and he realized he doesn't need it anymore which is why he gives his little sister the hat. He realized he didn't need the hat to bring him back to childhood, moving him onto adult hood.

We learn about Holden's current situation and ideas, he doesn't want change/adulthood for any child. But when we learn that the actual poem is actually "meet" and not "catch" showing that Holden's ideas of preventing adulthood are false. And he should just let kids grow up.

Final carousel scene

The carousel represents life and how its a cycle of ups and downs. Holden finally lets go of his fixation on the past and staying a child. It's about growing up and no longer having to ride the carousel, but rather be the captain of his own future.
