(Lawrence to Edward Garnett, 18 February 1913) 1 am reading the Life. It is interesting, but also false: far too jammy. Voltaire had made, acquired for himself, by the time he was my age, an income of £3,000 - equivalent at least to an income of twelve thousand pounds, today. How had he done it? - it means a capital of two hundred thousand pounds. Where had it come from? (Lawrence to Dorothy Brett, 24 November 1926) We talked my poverty - it has got on my nerves lately. But next day had a horrible reaction . .. Definitely I hate the whole money-making world, Tom & Dick as well as en gros. But 1 won't be done by them either.

Lindeth Vasey read the manuscript on two different occasions: her marvellous eye for detail and her wide knowledge of Lawrence helped me enormously. Michael Squires greatly assisted me with the details of the publication of Lady Chatterley's Lover; Gerald Pollinger talked to me, wined and lunched me, and answered my questions about publishing and Lawrence from his own unique position of exper­ tise. Richard Dutton was a thoughtful and helpful general editor. James T. Boulton allowed me access to the complete file of Lawrence's correspondence in Birmingham. I am very grateful to him, to Cambridge University Press, and to Laurence Pollinger Ltd and the Estate of Mrs Frieda Lawrence Ravagli, for permission to quote from the works and the letters of D. H. Lawrence. W. H. Clarke and George Lazarus both kindly allowed me access to their manuscript collections; Margaret Needham and Joan King answered my questions with great patience. I am also indebted to the Harry Ransom Humanities Research Center, University of Texas, to Northwestern University, to the University of Cincinatti, and to the Berg Collection, New York Public Library. The dedica­ tion, however, records the author's debt to the person who heard this book worked-out in its early stages, expounded over the washing-up as it developed, and at last tapped-out with two fingers: and who supported him financially while he wrote about another man's financial problems ...

  • A Study of the Captain's Doll
    A Study of The Captain’s Doll 論 文 A Study of The Captain’s Doll: A Life of “a Hard Destiny” YAMADA Akiko 要 旨 英語題名を和訳すると，「『大尉の人形』研究──「厳しい宿命」の人 生──」になる。1923年に出版された『大尉の人形』は『恋する女たち』， 『狐』及び『アルヴァイナの堕落』等の小説や中編小説と同じ頃に執筆さ れた D. H. ロレンスの中編小説である。これらの作品群は多かれ少なかれ 類似したテーマを持っている。 時代背景は第一次世界大戦直後であり，作品の前半の場所はイギリス軍 占領下のドイツである。主人公であるヘプバーン大尉はイギリス軍に所属 しておりドイツに来たが，そこでハンネレという女性と恋愛関係になる。し かし彼にはイギリスに妻子がいて，二人の情事を噂で聞きつけた妻は，ドイ ツへやってきて二人の仲を阻止しようとする。妻は，生計を立てるために人 形を作って売っていたハンネレが，愛する大尉をモデルにして作った人形 を見て，それを購入したいと言うのだが，彼女の手に渡ることはなかった。 妻は事故で死に，ヘプバーンは新しい人生をハンネレと始めようと思う が，それはこれまでの愛し愛される関係ではなくて，女性に自分を敬愛し 従うことを求める関係である。筆者は，本論において，この関係を男性優 位の関係と捉えるのではなくて，ロレンスが「星の均衡」の関係を求めて いることを論じる。 キーワード：人形的人間，月と星々，敬愛と従順，魔力，太陽と氷河 1 愛知大学 言語と文化 No. 38 Introduction The Captain’s Doll by D. H. Lawrence was published in 1923, and The Fox (1922) and The Ladybird (1923) were published almost at the same time. A few years before Women in Love (1920) and The Lost Girl (1921) had been published, too. These novellas and novels have more or less a common theme which is the new relationship between man and woman. The doll is modeled on a captain in the British army occupying Germany after World War I. The maker of the doll is a refugee aristocrat named Countess Johanna zu Rassentlow, also called Hannele, a single woman. She is Captain Hepburn’s mistress. His wife and children live in England. Hannele and Mitchka who is Hannele’s friend and roommate, make and sell dolls and other beautiful things for a living. Mitchka has a working house. But the captain’s doll was not made to sell but because of Hannele’s love for him. The doll has a symbolic meaning in that he is a puppet of both women, his wife and his mistress.

A Publication of the D. H. Lawrence Society of Great Britain 84 JDHLS 5.1 (2018) SHIFTING THE AXIS: REGIONAL MODERNISM IN KANGAROO – A FOREGROUND TO AUSTRALIAN LITERARY MODERNISM DAVID GAME As the welcome and monumental The Cambridge History of Modernism (2016) shows, the parameters of modernism have been further shaped and defined, and Lawrence’s modernist credentials continue to be illuminated by scholars on both sides of the Atlantic.1 Although not one of “‘The Men of 1914’ – Pound, Eliot, Joyce, and Wyndham Lewis”, he is usually included among key modernist figures, such as Mansfield, Yeats and Woolf.2 Pericles Lewis, in his Preface to The Cambridge Introduction to Modernism (2007), sees Lawrence as one of the “major figures in English-language modernism”.3 In this essay I examine Kangaroo (1923) as a modernist novel through the lens of “regional modernism”, broadening and extending our understanding of Lawrence’s engagement with the local, and providing a new basis for evaluating the novel as a major modernist work.

  • Quest for Wholeness: D
    QUEST FOR WHOLENESS: D. H. LAWRENCE'S SHORTER FICTION fey Keith William Fraser B. A., University of British Columbia, 1966 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF Master of Arts in the Department of English We accept this thesis as conforming to the required standard. THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA October, 1969 In presenting this thesis in partial fulfilment of the requirements for an advanced degree at the University of British Columbia, I agree that the Library shall make it freely available for reference and Study. I further agree that permission for extensive copying of this thesis for scholarly purposes may be granted by the Head of my Department or by his representatives. It is understood that copying or publication of this thes.is for financial gain shall not be allowed without my written permission. Department The University of British Columbia Vancouver 8, Canada ABSTRACT That one narrows the critically popular quest theme to one of wholeness does not axiomatically assure a tapered, pertinent monograph. For that reason I have taken some care to construct my approach to D. H. Lawrence's shorter fiction with three chapters which canalize Setting, Structure, and Imagery toward this quest for wholeness. And to attenuate further, the three essays which connect with each of these are titled "Landscape and Point of View," "The Whole Story,"1 and "Triangle Versus the Individual Consciousness." In the case of the first and last, I use two of Law• rence's own essays to kindle the examinations of certain short stories and novellas.
