  • 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.

  • Darwinian Fitness and Presence in DH Lawrence Sarah Bouttier There Are Numerous Studies On
    Journal of Literature and Science Volume 5, No. 1 (2012) ISSN 1754-646XJournal of Literature and Science 5 (2012) Bouttier, “Fitness and Presence in D. H. Lawrence”: 38-54 Sarah Bouttier, “Fitness and Presence in D. H. Lawrence”: 38-54 “Wherein Does Fitness Lie?”: Darwinian Fitness and Presence in D. H. Lawrence Sarah Bouttier There are numerous studies on the influence of evolution in Lawrence’s works, 1 and as many on Lawrence’s reappraisal of time. 2 Yet few consider these together. Anne Fernihough posits that linear evolutionary time eroded presence and was therefore to be subverted by Lawrence: “For Lawrence, the linear version of time upon which Darwinian theory rests can never capture ‘presence,’ since it is based on the method in which presence is continually deferred. It posits itself [. .] on absence rather than presence” (177). This idea is particularly useful in understanding the conflict between fitness and presence: a Darwinian notion of fitness is at odds with presence because it inserts the life of an organism into a linear conception of time for which the present has in itself no value, since it is only considered in its relationship to the future (will the creature or the characteristic survive?). Presence, in this context, refers to an object’s material and historical existence, what Lawrence believes all art should aim to express. Presence amounts to the “existence of matter” (Lawrence, Phoenix 568) as opposed to “the abstracted reality” ( Phoenix 569) of things as we usually perceive them through our logical minds. In her seminal study, Fernihough frames this thought within a general appraisal of Lawrence’s aesthetics but her point is not specifically to address evolutionary images in Lawrence’s texts.

H. Lawrence’s St Mawr Dr. Pyeaam ABBASİ1,*, Roohollah DATLİ BEİGİ2 1Assistant professor of English literature, English department, Faculty of Foreign Languages, University of Isfahan, Hezar Jerib St., Isfahan, Iran. 2English department, Faculty of Foreign Languages, University of Isfahan, Isfahan, Iran Received: 01.02.2015; Accepted: 05.05.2015 ______________________________________________________________________________________________ Abstract. D. H. Lawrence’s St Mawr (1925) is known as a modernist example of an open-ended and inconclusive work of art. The novella is abound with ideological dualities such as nature vs. civilization; man vs. woman, and body vs. spirit that stem from and make the core of the writer’s personal, philosophical and political beliefs. This article argues that the open-endedness of the novella is more a sign of Lawrence’s artistic weakness at handling an overload of symbols and ideas rather than a modernist element enriching the novella with different layers of meaning open to different interpretations. It is argued that, approaching the end, the reader feels that he is entrapped within a complex web of ideas for which Lawrence’s attempt to reach a resolution proves futile. Lawrence’s artistic weakness shows itself in his uncertainty regarding a resolution for the complicated dualities and mysterious symbols he introduces in his novella. St Mawr, accordingly, seems an unfinished work overloaded with philosophical ideas rather than a multi- layered text created by the visionary power of the imagination.

  • The Art of Transformation in DH Lawrence's St. Mawr
    Alchemical Creation: The Art of Transformation in D.H. Lawrence’s St. Mawr Francisco LaRubia-Prado Georgetown University Abstract This paper explores a creative interpretation of D. H. Lawrence’s novel St.Mawr. Throughout the centuries, and across cultures, the presence of a distinctive horse (or horses) in a literary text—and more recently in films — results in what appears to be an unvarying outcome: the restoration of equilibrium and wholeness in situations where balance and a sense of totality has been lost. Powerful illustrations of this phenomenon in Western and Eastern cultures are the medieval epic poem El Cid, Heinrich von Kleist’s Michael Kohlhaas, Leo Tolstoy’s Kholstomer, Girish Karnad’s Hayavadana, Akira Kurosawa’s Kagemusha, or the recent theater hit (originally written as a novel) War Horse, by Michael Morpurgo. D.H. Lawrence’s St. Mawr (1924) belongs to this tradition, but whereas in the previously cited texts the relevance of the horse pertains to other themes—such as power, collective identity, the role of performance in human life, or the tragedy of war—the distinctiveness of Lawrence’s text lies in the horse’s centrality in the psychological transformation of one individual: Lou Witt. I am currently working on a book-length project that will include the cited texts and others showing, from a transcultural and trans-temporal perspective, how the centrality of horses in literature and film systematically responds to the same causes. Clearly, authors throughout history have validated what V.A. Kolve says about the uses of the horse in the Middle Ages, namely, that it is a “central image” through which human nature can be explored (137).

Owing to their father’s mismanagement of his fortune, three brothers are at a crossroads, each resolving to face the new life set before them which involves leaving the family farmhouse and their occupation as horse-dealers. At odds with their resignation, their sister’s transgressive behaviour emphasizes her plea for a freely chosen future even if it implies taking her own life. Eventually becoming further acquainted with the local doctor, who saves her from drowning in a pond, offers the young woman an alternative to suicide.

LAWRENCE'S MYTHOPOEIC VISION OF THE INTEGRATED PERSONALITY WITH SPECIAL EMPHASIS ON THE SHORT FICTION AND OTHER WRITINGS IN THE EARLY NINETEEN TWENTIES by Anja Viinikka TURUN YLIOPISTO TURKU 1988 FOREWORD The primary choice of D.H.Lawrence as the subject of the present study stems from an interest in that author dating from my undergraduate years, when Mr. John Terence Hodgson gave a series ofstimulating lectures in the nineteen·sixties. Myinterest in Lawrence was given a further impulse by the experience of tracing his footsteps in England, and particularly in Italy in the eighties. The secondary choice of research material was dictated by the abudance and significance of ancient myths and their various functions, linked with the integrated personality, particularly in Lawrence's short fiction in the early twenties. The present work has been carried out at the University of Turku. I wish to thank in first place Associate Professors Liisa Dahl and Hannu K.
