What did the composer utilize the minor mode in Symphonie Fantastique to represent?

By looking on page 269 in the 'Music Form, Programmatic Form' it talks about the A section and B section.

The A section (minor mode) represents "gloomy & ferocious".

The B section (major mode) represents "solemn and brilliant".
