Essay on Lady Chattterley's Lover

Lawrence the reader follows the unusual love story of a woman named Mabel. The story begins with Mabel’s three brothers discussing what they will do once their family farm has sold. While her brothers question her about what she will do she remains silent. Mabel’s thinks her life is so meaningless because she feels oppressed by her brothers. Not only had she been maintaining the household alone for 10 years but they often call her names and talk at her no to her. The author adds, “They had talked at her and round her for so many years, that she hardly heard them at all” showing how long this oppression had been going on. While she is described as having plain features her brothers say she looks like a “bull-dog”. Her life becomes unbearable when the family runs out of money. Before her father died leaving them a heap of debt she believed life was worthwhile because at the very least they had money. Her brothers were still awful to her and had a reputation for being promiscuous, but they had financial security. To help the reader understand why money is so important to her the author states, “…so long as there was money, the girl felt herself established, and brutally proud, reserved”. Once the money is gone Mabel feels hopeless as she thinks that there is no longer a life for her. While her brothers make plans on where to go once the farm is sold she does not make any decisions. She values security and without money,

This emphasizes Mel’s true feelings about love. He goes on to explain that he feels love is unconditional (Carver 727). Mel feels that if you can be abusive to someone and try to kill them, then you cannot possibly be in love with them. Through Mel, Carver is describing a true and unrestricted love. He is telling of a love above all that is not just physical, but powerful and deep, one where you not only feel passion for this person, but a profound emotional attachment.

Symbolism: In the first scene when Marlowe first enters the Sternwood house there is a detailed description of a stained glass window portraying a scene of a knight trying to save a helpless woman tied to a tree. This picture symbolizes Marlowe’s need to quickly solve a problem, and his wanting to help women in distress. This symbol is used to characterize Marlowe and also to show how women are seen through out the novel, that a man is always needed to save a woman and that she is helpless on her own.

This shows that the narrator is willing to risk the safety of his land just to have Helen and her love. The using of personification, hyperboles, and metaphors in the poem reveals the theme that the world crumbles for the most loved. Christopher Marlowe, the writer of the poem, through his life wrote many more

When dissatisfaction was present, he assumed it was because she had an extramarital relationship. He came home from work and announced to her that he had had an affair. This dissolved the relationship and he moved in with the new girlfriend, became absent from the children.

He uses short sentences throughout his essay to communicate with the reader in a very powerful and concise manner. In one section of Lawrence’s essay, he goes on a rant and writes, “A. The Scarlet Letter. Adulteress! The great Alpha. Alpha! Adulteress! The new Adam and Adama! America!” (Lawrence). Lawrence uses alliteration by stating many words that start with the letter “A” in short sentences. He does this to notify the characteristics of the words and describe how it directly relate to Hester’s adultery. Near the end of Lawrence’s essay while describing purity, he says to “. . . keep up the game. Keep up appearances. Pure are the pure. To the pure all things, etc” (Lawrence). Lawrence uses quickness and decisiveness in the text in order to enhance the meaning of purity and evil. He states that the evil Hester seduces the pure Dimmsdale and makes him lose his purity. Lawrence successfully delivers his view towards Hester by writing in short phrases and emphasizing

D. H. Lawrence's Son's and Lover's is a study of human relationships.

The second eldest in particular, Paul, is the receiver of most of this deep emotion.

Casey and Will have married for 13 years. They have 2 children, a house, and a life together. Will and Casey have great morals and understanding of one another. they don’t drink and they don’t party unless it is for special occasions. Casey finds out that Will cheated on her while he was away for a bachelor party for his best friend. Will was at the bar with his friends. Will never drinks, but it was a big day for his best friend so he decided one night wouldn’t hurt. About 3 hours into the night, a group of females approached the group and one began to flirt with Will while the others continued with his friends. Will was extremely tipsy. He took advantage of the fact that he had not had this type of attention due to being in a commit relationship (certain relationships lose similar intimacy due to being together for a long period). He allowed alcohol to take over the situation which began to escalate. The guys were all under the influence too, so they didn’t think anything about the situation to stop him. The conversations continued and they realized both groups were staying at the same hotel and went back together. Shortly the circumstance accelerated from verbal intimacy to psychical intimacy interactions. Will knew

However, during the meeting with Terry I analysed that because Mr. Roberts fails to attend to her needs, by fixing the apartment, etc. Consequently, she declined paying her rent and refuses to listen to his complaints about where to put the trash etc. She mentioned that she is financially stable, so there is no problem for her to pay her rent on time, but where comfort is a concern that is her priority. She said that just as much as paying her rent that will result making her landlord comfortable, she also wants to be comfortable as well. Therefore, what I analysed here is that if Mr. Robert pay attention to her needs, she would do the same that will enhance the happiness on both sides. Thus, fixing the apartment, repairing the soiled and ripped wallpaper, replace some cracked plaster and

Lawrence has two main themes in this book; first, the relationship between men, women and how they find love; second, industry vs. nature. Both can be discussed to show how they are

THE SITUATION WOULD HURT HER FOR NOW BUT SHE WOULD REAP THE LONG-TERM BENEFITS OF THIS IF SHE BROKE UP WITH THE MAN AS HE WAS DISHONEST TO BOTH HER AND THE WIFE (MARGARET IN THIS CASE). IN THE FUTURE, MARY WOULD BE MORE CAREFUL IN THE CHOICE OF A MAN FOR MARRIAGE AND WOULD OBVIOUSLY LOOK MORE CLOSELY BEFORE COMMITTING. FROM THE WHOLE SITUATION, MARY WOULD BE SAVED A LONG-TERM HEARTBREAK, WHICH WOULD HAVE HAPPENED IF SHE KEPT BUILDING UP THE HOPES OF GETTING MARRIED TO THE MAN. AFTER RESOLVING MARY’S CASE, I WOULD TALK TO MARGARET AND EXPLAIN TO HER THE WHOLE SITUATION AND SHE WOULD COME TO UNDERSTAND THAT IT WAS HER MAN AT FAULT. MARGARET WOULD BE HURT BY KNOWING THAT HER MAN WAS TRULY CHEATING ESPECIALLY WITH ONE OF MY CLOSE FRIENDS, BUT THEN KNOWING WOULD HELP HER MAKE A DECISION ON HOW TO FORGE FORWARD AND THIS WOULD HER WHILE DEALING WITH THE FUTURE. THOUGH MARGARET AND MARY WOULD ALWAYS BE IN A TENSE SITUATION WHILE TOGETHER, BOTH OF THEM WOULD BE AT PEACE KNOWING THE TRUTH. IT WAS A TOUGH SITUATION BUT THEN IT WAS THE MORALLY RIGHT THING TO DO IN THE SCENARIO PRESENTED. THE CURRENT ETHICAL AND MORAL VALUES ARE VERY MUCH AGAINST INFIDELITY IN RELATIONSHIPS AS IT LEADS TO HEARTBREAKS AND DIVORCES.

By focussing on the tone of the two poems one can draw similarities within how the male imperative and female reluctance mirrors the social context of time and religious morality. Marlowe evokes this message through the utilisation of the hyperbolic use of the possessive pronoun ‘my’ in accordance with imperatives; “Come live with me and be my love, / And we will all the pleasures prove”.

Within this poem, Williams communicates his support of Raleigh’s central idea of time changing love. While he builds off of Raleigh’s central idea, he also addresses the place of that Marlowe has described in his poem, the country. In the first three lines of Williams’s poem he states, “We cannot go to the country for the country will bring us no peace” (Williams, 1.1-3). These lines show how he is also using the setting of Marlowe’s poem as a central idea. He contributes to Raleigh’s central idea of time changing nature and love when he says, “who sung of our loveliness it was long ago!

In Sons and Lovers, Mrs. Gertrude Morel’s personality is a near polar opposite to Connie’s. Whereas Connie is earthy, sensual, and physical, Mrs. Morel is proud, unyielding, and intellectual (Murfin 34). She is associated with “control, consciousness, coolness, and colors suggesting purity” (Murfin 38). In a letter to a friend, Lawrence himself wrote the simplest explanation of Mrs. Morel’s role in the novel:

In Lady Chatterley’s lover, one of interesting topics is how to evaluate the transformations of protagonists including Clifford and Connie. Is the transformation of Clifford merely personal change of interesting from writing to business engagement? And should this change be acclaimed since it is chase of freedom in some perspective? Or the transformation essentially reflects “the Mammon of mechanized greed”? I personally believe that Lawrence criticizes the industrialization as dehumanizing force in this novel via all the symbolic characters and plots including the transformation of Clifford.
