Lawrence of Arabia (1962): a Tragic Hero in an Ever-Lasting Quest
Lawrence of Arabia (1962): A Tragic Hero in an Ever-Lasting Quest Isabel Barbudo Faculty of Letters – University of Lisbon Centre for English Studies – CEAUL / ULICES ISSN: 0873-0628ANGLO SAXONICA SER. III N. 7 2014 Lawrence of Arabia (1962): A Tragic Hero in an Ever-Lasting Quest “I loved you, so I drew these tides of man into my hands and wrote my will across the sky in stars to earn you Freedom, the seven pillared worthy house (…).” (T.E. Lawrence, dedication to S. A. in Seven Pillars of Wisdom) The film Lawrence of Arabia, directed by David Lean and released in 1962, is based on the figure of T. E. Lawrence, the legendary English officer who led Arabs in their struggle against the Turks during World War I. Having attended Oxford from 1906 to 1909, where he studied archaeology, he first travelled to the Middle East on scholarships to study the influence of the Crusaders on modern architecture. There he stayed for months, making Arab friends and learning their language. Later on, at the outbreak of the war of 1914, when England allied with France against Germany and Turkey, he was dispatched to Cairo, in Egypt, to work for the Bureau of Arab Affairs, and became involved in the Revolt of the Arabs against the Turks in 1916. Meanwhile, he was assigned a position as liaison officer to Prince Feisal, and took part in military operations, blowing up Turkish trains and taking the city of Aqaba. In 1918, under orders from General Edward Allenby, he led an army of Arab tribes to coordinate with the British forces in their attack and capture of Damascus.
