Towards Balancing Gender Roles: A Study of the Novels of D.H. Lawrence by Dr. Anjani Sharma Pdf

The question of gender roles has intrigued novelists for ages. The general drama of the universe revolves around the battle of sexes for determining gender roles and dominance of power. Not many novelists of the twentieth century dared to voice so passionately, the problems of relationship between the sexes in a changing world that saw urbanization, industrialization and the World War eroding the age-old foundation of the society, as D.H. Lawrence did. The new age demanded a revision and reconstruction of gender roles, and Lawrence, the first English working-class novelist, boldly disrupted the rigid boundary of the beings. He navigated his way from self-observed chronicles of his adolescence to the sophisticated assessor of women and understood the importance of their role in the regeneration of man. Lawrence often quarreled and contradicted himself before proposing a prophetic ideal man-woman relationship for the society. That is why, he is hailed as a priest of love and a prophet against mechanized existence. His purpose was so big that his novels still make such nerve-racking readings and have not escaped the critical gaze of many. This book attempts to explore the causes of failure of relationship between man and woman in the modern age through the study of some of his best novels . It investigates the new kind of relationship based on gender balance, proposed by him, that believes in the necessity to revive the vitality in sexuality to reform the human race. In attempting to discuss his novels, the book approaches the psychoanalytical method and analyses what psychology operates behind his characters that perform different roles.

Balancing the Books by Erik Dussere Pdf

Balancing the Books represents a sophisticated examination of the ongoing engagement of American literature with the economies of slavery through the works of William Faulkner and Toni Morrison. Both Faulkner and Morrison write about the relationship between race, identity, and history, and about how the legacies of slavery linger in the lives and actions of their characters, although the narrative strategies through which they render these themes ultimately diverge. Dussere brings considerations of debt and repayment, exchange and accounting, and capital and the market-concepts inseparable from any consideration of race in the construction of the American nation-into dialogue with the work of Faulkner and Morrison to produce an outstanding work of literary and cultural criticism.

The Rhetoric of the Unselfconscious in D.H. Lawrence by Masami Nakabayashi Pdf

"In this study of the Lady Chatterley novels, Masami Nakabayashi pays particular attention to D.H. Lawrence's language for the feelings and for the life of the unselfconscious, sexual body. The novels constantly find ways of verbalising the characters' internalised experiences as they occur in states of unselfconsciousness. Lawrence's language for sensual feelings and emotions has always been regarded as simply 'sexual' and no previous critics have explored or made sense of the complexities of his peculiar, but extremely sophisticated, writing practice in the Lady Chatterley novels. Lawrence was a habitual reviser of his work, and, despite the availability of reliable texts in the Cambridge edition, few critics have traced the nature and significance of his changes from one draft to the next. By examining and analysing the novels' particular linguistic revisions, Masami Nakabayashi reveals the textual impulse behind Lawrence's original conception and its subsequent change and development"--Back cover.

D. H. Lawrence and Feminism by Hilary Simpson Pdf

First published in 1982, D. H. Lawrence and Feminism discusses Lawrence’s work by examining it in relation to aspects of women’s history and the development of feminism. Two different modes of pre-war feminism which provide important themes in Lawrence’s early writings are examined in the opening chapters. The central chapters deal with the war, both as a catalyst for major changes in the position of women and as a point of no return in the development of Lawrence’s work. A final chapter looks at the way in which Lawrence used women as collaborator, and their writing as source material. This book will be of interest to students of literature, women’s studies and history.

Writing Against the Family by Cynthia Lewiecki-Wilson Pdf

A feminist comparison of D.H. Lawrence (1885-1930) and James Joyce (1882-1941), providing new readings of a number of their most important works, including Lawrence's Man Who Died and Joyce's Finnegans Wake. Reexamining Lawrence and Joyce from the point of view of feminist psychoanalysis, Lewiecki-Wilson challenges the notion that the two novelists reside in opposing modernist camps, contending that in fact they exist along a continuum, with both engaged in a reimagination of gender relations.

D. H. Lawrence, Ecofeminism and Nature by Terry Gifford Pdf

This is the first ecocritical book on the works of D. H. Lawrence and also the first to consider the links between nature and gender in the poetry and the novels. In his search for a balanced relationship between male and female characters, what role does nature play in the challenges Lawrence offers his readers? How far are the anxieties of his characters in negotiating relationships that might threaten their sense of self derived from the same source as their anxieties about engaging with the Other in nature? Indeed, might Lawrence’s metaphors drawn from nature actually be the causes of human actions in The Rainbow, for example? The originality of Lawrence’s poetic and narrative strategies for challenging social attitudes towards both nature and gender can be revealed by new approaches offered by ecocritical theory and ecofeminist readings of his books. This book explores ecocritical notions to frame its ecofeminist readings, from the difference between the ‘Other’ and ‘otherness’ in The White Peacock and Lady Chatterley’s Lover, ‘anotherness’ in the poetry of Birds, Beasts and Flowers, psychogeography in Sea and Sardinia, emergent ecofeminism in Sons and Lovers, land and gender in The Boy in the Bush, gender dialogics in Kangaroo, human animality in Women in Love, trees as tests in Aaron’s Rod, to ‘radical animism’ in The Plumed Serpent. Finally, three late tales provide a reassessment of ecofeminist insights into Lawrence’s work for readers in the present context of the Anthropocene.
