Book D H  Lawrence

Download or read book D H Lawrence written by Jane Foster and published by Crescent Moon Publishing. This book was released on 2008 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: D.H. LAWRENCE 'Infinite sensual violence' is one of the phrases that D.H. Lawrence employs in his two great novels, The Rainbow and Women in Love which, with Lady Chatterley's Lover, form the heart of this study of love, emotion, sexuality, gender, identity and feminism in Lawrence's work. M.K. Pace sees Lawrence as still today one of the most challenging of writers, whose provocative, angry and sometimes simplistic ideas polarize critics and feminists. D.H. Lawrence spawned more versions of himself, more D.H. Lawrences, than many other writers. There are the Lawrences in the works: the poet, playwright, correspondent, novelist, painter, travel writer, historian, critic and psychologist. In the books, and in criticism published since, Lawrence plays a number of roles: sociologist, Marxist, traveller, prophet, literary critic, feminist, mystic, martyr, politician, folklorist, theologian, agony aunt, genius, liar, fascist, Midlander, poet and pantheist. D.H. Lawrence has received more critical attention than most writers. He is in the Shakespeare, Hardy and Dickens league. Like Hardy and Shakespeare, D.H. Lawrence is an industry, an icon, the subject of TV, radio, magazines, films, holidays, tours, university courses, festivals, shops, cafes, walks, etc. One of the main attractions of D.H. Lawrence s fictions - it s the same with Hardy, Austen, Bronte - is love. It s his central subject. When he writes of love he can weave in just about anything he likes. Love - or the equivalent terms romance or reltationships or feelings - helps to make Lawrence popular. Always in D.H. Lawrence s output there is love and sexuality - you can see him developing the tradition of Austen, Hardy and Eliot, or you can break him apart as a misogynist, as Kate Millet has done. Or as a wife-beater, as Mary Daly and Katherine Mansfield have done. Or you can write about the positive images of women, or his homosexuality. Then there is sodomy, a favourite subject of modern European writers. There is the political Lawrence, the utopian visionary, the socialist, and the neo-fascist. The religious Lawrence - with his unusual beliefs, his paganism, his new Christianity, his Apocalyptical thinking. Lawrence the philosopher, the intuitive explorer of a heap of issues. Lawrence with numerous famous friendships (Russell, Huxley, Murry, Frieda, Mansfield, Aldington, etc). Or Lawrence the culture merchant, trading in Nietzsche, Dostoievsky, Freud, the Bible. And the anti-hero of counter-culture. Includes illustrations, bibliography and notes. "

Book excerpt: This collection of classic titles by Beauvoir her most well know writings, The Second Sex and The Ethics Of Ambiguity as well as a biography of her life and a rare interview on her book The Second Sex. French writer and feminist, and Existentialist. She is known primarily for her treatise The Second Sex (1949), a scholarly and passionate plea for the abolition of what she called the myth of the "eternal feminine." It became a classic of feminist literature during the 1960s. Her novels expounded the major Existential themes, demonstrating her conception of the writer's commitment to the times. She Came To Stay (1943) treats the difficult problem of the relationship of a conscience to "the other". Of her other works of fiction, perhaps the best known is The Mandarins (1954), a chronicle of the attempts of post-World War II intellectuals to leave their "mandarin" (educated elite) status and engage in political activism. She also wrote four books of philosophy, including The Ethics of Ambiguity (1947). Several volumes of her work are devoted to autobiography which constitute a telling portrait of French intellectual life from the 1930s to the 1970s. In addition to treating feminist issues, de Beauvoir was concerned with the issue of aging, which she addressed in A Very Easy Death (1964), on her mother's death in a hospital. In 1981 she wrote A Farewell to Sartre, a painful account of Sartre's last years. Simone de Beauvoir revealed herself as a woman of formidable courage and integrity, whose life supported her thesis: the basic options of an individual must be made on the premises of an equal vocation for man and woman founded on a common structure of their being, independent of their sexuality.

Book Secrets of the Flesh

Download or read book Secrets of the Flesh written by Judith Thurman and published by Ballantine Books. This book was released on 2011-03-30 with total page 636 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A scandalously talented stage performer, a practiced seductress of both men and women, and the flamboyant author of some of the greatest works of twentieth-century literature, Colette was our first true superstar. Now, in Judith Thurman's Secrets of the Flesh, Colette at last has a biography worthy of her dazzling reputation. Having spent her childhood in the shadow of an overpowering mother, Colette escaped at age twenty into a turbulent marriage with the sexy, unscrupulous Willy--a literary charlatan who took credit for her bestselling Claudine novels. Weary of Willy's sexual domination, Colette pursued an extremely public lesbian love affair with a niece of Napoleon's. At forty, she gave birth to a daughter who bored her, at forty-seven she seduced her teenage stepson, and in her seventies she flirted with the Nazi occupiers of Paris, even though her beloved third husband, a Jew, had been arrested by the Gestapo. And all the while, this incomparable woman poured forth a torrent of masterpieces, including Gigi, Sido, Cheri, and Break of Day. Judith Thurman, author of the National Book Award-winning biography of Isak Dinesen, portrays Colette as a thoroughly modern woman: frank in her desires, fierce in her passions, forever reinventing herself. Rich with delicious gossip and intimate revelations, shimmering with grace and intelligence, Secrets of the Flesh is one of the great biographies of our time. NOTE: This edition does not include a photo insert.

Download or read book The Lost Girl written by D. H. Lawrence and published by Sai ePublications & Sai Shop. This book was released on 2015-12-17 with total page 568 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Take a mining townlet like Woodhouse, with a population of ten thousand people, and three generations behind it. This space of three generations argues a certain well-established society. The old "County" has fled from the sight of so much disembowelled coal, to flourish on mineral rights in regions still idyllic. Remains one great and inaccessible magnate, the local coal owner: three generations old, and clambering on the bottom step of the "County," kicking off the mass below. Rule him out. A well established society in Woodhouse, full of fine shades, ranging from the dark of coal-dust to grit of stone-mason and sawdust of timber-merchant, through the lustre of lard and butter and meat, to the perfume of the chemist and the disinfectant of the doctor, on to the serene gold-tarnish of bank-managers, cashiers for the firm, clergymen and such-like, as far as the automobile refulgence of the general-manager of all the collieries.
