About this Item

nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Being one of the major influential novelists of early 20th, D. H. Lawrence was highly affected by Freud and his groundbreaking theories. He strained to intermingle Freudianism with the distresses he underwent in the course of the catastrophes of modernization, industrialization and WWI. The writing of The Rainbow was started and ended before WWI. Yet, its sequel Women in Love was shaped during the events of First World War. The atmosphere of The Rainbow is dominated by biblical stories, primitivism, tendency toward nature and natural life, spontaneity and pure sexuality. Conversely, Women in Love presents the side of Lawrence highly disturbed by WWI nightmares. Women in Love is the sphere of novel concepts and philosophies on strict primitivism, war and death. All these concepts are collected and mixed with each other in Women in Love, where the attaching point is Freud, his theories in Civilization and its Discontent and Reflection on War and Death (1915).

Synopsis

Being one of the major influential novelists of early 20th, D. H. Lawrence was highly affected by Freud and his groundbreaking theories. He strained to intermingle Freudianism with the distresses he underwent in the course of the catastrophes of modernization, industrialization and WWI. The writing of The Rainbow was started and ended before WWI. Yet, its sequel Women in Love was shaped during the events of First World War. The atmosphere of The Rainbow is dominated by biblical stories, primitivism, tendency toward nature and natural life, spontaneity and pure sexuality. Conversely, Women in Love presents the side of Lawrence highly disturbed by WWI nightmares. Women in Love is the sphere of novel concepts and philosophies on strict primitivism, war and death. All these concepts are collected and mixed with each other in Women in Love, where the attaching point is Freud, his theories in Civilization and its Discontent and Reflection on War and Death (1915).
