À propos de cet e-book

Lawrence was an adept poet who wrote over 800 poems during his lifetime. At the beginning of his career, his poems were infused with pathetic fallacy and continual personification of flora and fauna. Like many of the Georgian poets, Lawrence's style was overly verbose and archaic, meant as a tribute to the previous Georgian period. However, the tragedy of World War I changed Lawrence's style dramatically. (Wikipedia)

À propos de l'auteur

David Herbert Lawrence, known as D. H. Lawrence, was born on September 11, 1885, in the coal-mining town of Eastwood, Nottinghamshire, England. A prolific novelist, poet, essayist, and painter, Lawrence's work is celebrated for its exploration of human sexuality, emotional health, and instinctual life, often challenging the repressive norms of early 20th-century society.Lawrence's upbringing in a working-class family profoundly influenced his writing, imbuing it with a deep sense of social realism and a critical eye toward industrialization's dehumanizing effects. His mother, Lydia, was a former schoolteacher who instilled in him a love for education and literature, while his father, Arthur, was a coal miner, providing Lawrence with firsthand insight into the struggles of the working class.His most controversial work, "Lady Chatterley's Lover," faced censorship and legal battles due to its explicit content and frank depiction of an affair between an aristocratic woman and a working-class man. The novel's eventual unbanning in 1960 marked a significant victory for literary freedom and opened the door for more open discussions of sexuality in literature.Lawrence's ideas on the natural world, human consciousness, and the need for personal and artistic freedom resonated with contemporary writers and thinkers, influencing figures like Aldous Huxley and Anaïs Nin. His advocacy for a return to nature and a more authentic way of living remains relevant in today's discussions on mental health and environmental sustainability.A restless spirit, Lawrence traveled extensively, living in Italy, Australia, Mexico, and the United States, which enriched his worldview and infused his work with diverse cultural perspectives. He died of tuberculosis on March 2, 1930, in Vence, France, leaving behind a legacy that continues to provoke thought and inspire readers worldwide.
