D.H.Lawrence, A Study on Mutual and Cross References and Interferences (Ristampa Aggiornata)

This critical study on mutual and cross references and interferences in Lawrence's literary production investigates on the influence of Lawrence's works in contemporary literature in English, after an analysis of how much he inherited from previous authors, as well as from different cultures and myths and how much he contributed in divulgating his cultural background. Lawrence's approach to nature, his desperate refusal of industrialization, his example of travel-writing became a source of inspiration or a sort of legacy. But Lawrence's legacy created the effect of a permanent quarrel because of the controversial responses to his works: censorship, accusations of obscenity, ambiguity aroused by the fact of being stereotyped as the prophet of sex, as well as of being at the centre of the feminist and misogynist disputes.
