ABSTRACT Complex, a psychological term, refers to a group of mental factors that are unconsciously associated by the individual with a particular subject or connected by a recognizable theme and influence the individuals attitude and behavior. William Faulkner, a preeminent Southern writer, had deep Southern Complex. He created the “little postage stamp of native soil”-- Yoknapatawpha County which is patterned after his real-life home in Oxford and Lafayette County and set many his works in this imaginary place. Faulkner’s Yoknapatawpha County novels crown nearly all aspects of the springheads of his Southern Complex. This paper analyzes William Faulkner’s Southern Complex in his works. The paper first defines complex and presents William Faulkner’s Southern Complex. It then elaborates four aspects of the embodiment of Faulkner’s Southern Complex in the Yoknapatawpha County novels: writing style, language, characterization and the setting, Yoknapatawpha County. It finally analyzes the internal cause and external cause that shape William Faulkner’s Southern Complex.
