![]() ![]() Author: Lawrence D. H., Squires Michael (EDT), Lessing Doris May (INT) Publisher: Penguin Classics One of the most extraordinary literary works of the twentieth century, Lady Chatterley's Lover was banned in England and the United States after its initial publication in 1928. The unexpurgated edition did not appear in America until 1959, after one of the most spectacular legal battles in publishing history. With her soft brown hair, lithe figure and big, wondering eyes, Constance Chatterley is possessed of a certain vitality. Yet she is deeply unhappy; married to an invalid, she is almost as inwardly paralyzed as her husband Clifford is paralyzed below the waist. It is not until she finds refuge in the arms of Mellors the game-keeper, a solitary man of a class apart, that she feels regenerated. Together they move from an outer world of chaos towards an inner world of fulfillment. € 20,25

![]() ![]() Author: Lawrence D. H., Squires Michael (FRW) Publisher: I B Tauris & Co Ltd Much of D.H. Lawrence's life was defined by his passion for travel and it was those wanderings that gave life to some of his greatest novels. In the 1920s Lawrence travelled several times to Mexico, where he was fascinated by the clash of beauty and brutality, purity and darkness that he observed. The diverse and evocative essays that make up Mornings in Mexico wander from an admiring portrayal of the Indian way of life to a visit to the studio of Diego Rivera and are brightly adorned with simple and evocative details: piles of fruit in a village market, strolls in a courtyard filled with hibiscus and roses, the play of light on an adobe wall. It was during his time in Mexico that Lawrence re-wrote The Plumed Serpent, which is infused with his own experiences there. To read Mornings in Mexico is thus to discover the inspiration behind of one of Lawrence's most loved works and to be immersed in a portrait of the country like no other. € 12,90

![]() ![]() Author: Lawrence D. H., Hyde Virginia Crosswhite (EDT) Publisher: Cambridge Univ Pr This is the first critical edition of Lawrence's complete essays about Mexican and Southwestern Indians, both those published in 1927 as Mornings in Mexico, and the other essays Lawrence wrote about them during his American years. The number of essays, therefore, is more than double that of all previous editions.

The texts are informed by all extant manuscripts, typescripts, and early publications, with a full textual apparatus revealing Lawrence's revisions. The volume includes extensive notes and appendices with information on Mesoamerican mythology and history. Lawrence's interest in and real affection for the region and its peoples went beyond the travel writing genre and these essays hold significance not only for those interested in Lawrence but also in the wider context of these cultures of Mexico and the Southwest. € 126,80

![]() ![]() Author: Lawrence D. H.; Dilonardo P. (cur.) Publisher: Adelphi Quando l'idea di 'classici americani' sembrava una contraddizione in termini, D.H. Lawrence fu il primo a individuare nella letteratura americana dell'Ottocento una specifica tradizione nazionale, fatta di tragica e disperata vitalità, di ipocrisia, rettitudine e continua capacità di trasformazione, e costruita in aperta antitesi alla cultura europea. Merito di per sé considerevole, ma che appare quasi trascurabile non appena ci si rende conto che questo libro offre, più che una sequenza di sia pur illuminanti saggi critici, una vera e propria galleria di ritratti psichici-di Fenimore Cooper e Edgar Allan Poe, Nathaniel Hawthorne e Herman Melville -, animati da una voce inconfondibile, ora beffarda e insinuante, ora imperiosa e tonante. Ritratti che non cessano di provocarci, di sfidarci a un inesauribile incontro e scontro con Lawrence e con gli autori di cui parla. € 15,00

![]() ![]() Author: Lawrence D. H.; Daneluzzi S. (cur.) Publisher: Lindau 'I bianchi scrivono sempre, o quasi sempre, in modo sentimentale degli indiani. È così per tutti: antropologi, trascrittori di miti e quant'altri. Dovunque si ritrova quella nota di sentimentalismo strisciante che fa sì che chi legge alzi le spalle e mandi al diavolo gli indiani e una quantità di altre sciocchezze. Bisogna smitizzare gli indiani, così come i cowboy. Quando si sono smitizzati i cowboy, non rimane quasi niente. Ma le sciocchezze sugli indiani non le hanno inventate gli indiani. Le abbiamo inventate noi. Per i bianchi è quasi impossibile avvicinare gli indiani e sfuggire al sentimentalismo o all'antipatia. Perché? Nel bianco entrambe le reazioni sono dovute a un'unica sensazione. L'indiano non è come noi. Tutto il suo essere percorre una strada diversa dalla nostra. Quanto prima ci renderemo conto di questo e lo accetteremo, tanto meglio sarà: e smetteremo di cercare, con nauseante sentimentalismo, di ridurre l'indiano ai nostri termini. Pretendere che tutto fluisca in un'unica corrente significa andare in cerca del caos e dell'annientamento. Pretendere di esprimere una corrente nei termini di un'altra, per renderle identiche, è opera falsa e sentimentale. L'unica cosa che si può fare è cercare di avere dentro di sé un piccolo spirito che riesca a vedere entrambe le vie, o persino molte vie.' D. H. Lawrence € 12,00

![]() ![]() Author: Lawrence D. H., Parks Tim (INT), De Filippis Simonetta (EDT), Eggert Paul (EDT), Kalnins Mara (EDT) Publisher: Penguin Classics In these impressions of the Italian countryside, Lawrence transforms ordinary incidents into passages of intense beauty. Twilight in Italy is an account of Lawrence's stay among the people of Lake Garda, whose decaying lemon gardens bear witness to the twilight of a way of life centuries old. In Sea and Sardina, Lawrence explores the vigorous spontaneity of a society as yet untouched by the deadening effect of industrialisation. And Sketches of Etruscan Places is a delicate work of literary art, the record of 'a dying man drinking from the founts of a civilization dedicated to life.' € 21,70

![]() ![]() Author: Lawrence D. H., Wilson Sue (EDT), Welsh Louise (INT), Jansohn Christa (EDT) Publisher: Penguin Classics This collection of short stories traces D. H. Lawrence's development as a writer. His early tales often draw on personal experiences, as in 'Odour of Chrysanthemums', a work he described as 'full of my childhood's atmosphere', while the horror of the First World War haunts 'England, My England'. Later stories, such as 'Things', powerfully express his evolving ideas about the essential duality of our lives. With complex, intelligent and sensitive characters, these stories illuminate real life and emotions and, above all, illustrate Lawrence's passionate belief about the destructive forces in modern society and their effect on love between men and women. In her introduction Louise Welsh discusses Lawrence's personal experiences and how they relate to his short stories. This edition also includes explanatory notes by Sue Wilson, a chronology of Lawrence's life and work and suggestions for further reading. € 15,50

![]() ![]() Author: Lawrence D. H., Farmer David R. (EDT), Vasey Lindeth (EDT), Worthen John (EDT), Chaudhuri Amit (INT) Publisher: Penguin Classics Women in Love explores the lives of Brangwen sisters, Ursula and Gudrun, and their developing love affairs with Rupert Birkin, an intellectual, and Gerald Crich, and industrialist.

The novel is the sequel to The Rainbow and, although written in 1916, it remained unpublished in England until 1921. In his Introduction Amit Chaudhuri discusses Lawrence's style and imagery.

![]() ![]() Author: Lawrence D. H., Kinkead-Weekes Mark (EDT), Fernihough Anne (EDT), Wood James (INT) Publisher: Penguin Classics Set in the rural Midlands of England, The Rainbow (1915) revolves around three generations of the Brangwens, a strong, vigorous family, deeply involved with the land. When Tom Brangwen marries a Polish widow, Lydia Lensky, and adopts her daughter Anna as his own, he is unprepared for the passion that erupts between them. All are seeking individual fulfillment, but it is Ursula, Anna's spirited daughter, who, in her search for self-knowledge, rejects the traditional role of womanhood. In his introduction, James Wood discusses Lawrence's writing style and the tensions and themes of The Rainbow. This Penguin edition reproduces the Cambridge text, which provides a text as close as possible to Lawrence's original. It also includes suggested further reading, a fragment of 'The Sisters II' from his first draft, and chronologies of Lawrence's life and of The Rainbow's Brangwen family. € 10,20

![]() ![]() Author: Lawrence D. H., Finney Brian (EDT), Jansohn Christa (EDT), Mehl Dieter (EDT), Poplawski Paul (EDT) Publisher: Penguin Classics These three works, all written in 1924, explore profound psychological voyages of liberation. In 'St. Mawr', Lou Witt buys a beautiful, untamable bay stallion and discovers an intense emotional affinity with the horse that she cannot feel with her husband. This superb novella displays Lawrence's mastery of satirical comedy in a scathing depiction of London's fashionable high society. In 'The Woman Who Rode Away' a woman's religious quest in Mexico brings great danger - and astonishing self-discovery, while 'The Princess' portrays the intimacy between an aloof woman and her male guide as she ventures into the wilderness of New Mexico in search of new experiences. In his introduction, James Lasdun discusses the theme of liberation and the ways in which it is conveyed in these works. Using the restored texts of the Cambridge edition, this volume includes further reading, a new chronology and notes by Paul Poplawski. € 14,80

![]() ![]() Author: Lawrence D. H. Publisher: Lindau In 'L'uomo che amava le isole' un uomo sogna di possedere un'isola, di divenire il signore di un piccolo mondo separato che sia creazione e specchio della sua personalità. Ma né gli uomini, né la natura si lasciano facilmente trasformare in specchio di qualcuno. Quello che doveva essere un idillio si trasforma in un braccio di ferro sempre più disperato, e l'avventura iniziata con l'acquisto di un'isola si conclude con il trionfo della natura, mentre il protagonista è costretto a restringere sempre di più i confini del proprio mondo, fino a racchiudervi solo sé stesso. In 'L'uomo che era morto' Lawrence si misura con la vicenda paradigmatica della storia dell'Occidente: la morte di Cristo. E lo fa alla sua maniera, fedele all'idea che l'unica trascendenza possibile risieda nella quotidiana rinascita all'universo delle cose, e che il peccato più grande sia la rimozione del corpo come orizzonte profondo di significato spirituale. È infatti nel contatto con la natura e il sole della vita che l'uomo crocifisso inizia a riaversi dal sonno della morte e a osservare il mondo attorno a sé con sguardo nuovo e partecipe. Egli diviene consapevole che la vera risurrezione è l'essere rinato alla vita del corpo, abiura la vita passata e la sua astratta predicazione, che ora gli appare come l'espressione di una sconfinata e innaturale volontà di potenza. Il protagonista della sua storia non è neppure per un attimo il figlio di Dio, ma soltanto un uomo, protagonista di una storia esemplare. € 12,00

![]() ![]() Author: Lawrence D. H. Publisher: Rizzoli Nel suo capolavoro, divenuto il manifesto della passione autentica e travolgente, Lawrence narra le vicende di Connie Chatterley, moglie di Connors, uomo di nobili origini rimasto paralizzato durante la Prima guerra mondiale. La giovane donna è dunque costretta a condurre una vita triste e monotona nella nebbiosa campagna inglese, fino a quando non incontra Mellors, affascinante guardiacaccia che vive nel capanno della tenuta. Connie, che non si è mai davvero abituata alla vita rigorosa richiesta a una nobildonna, riscopre così l'amore passionale, fisico, e inizia con l'uomo una relazione adultera. Giudicato oltraggioso e scandaloso per i contenuti espliciti e i temi trattati, processato, censurato, proibito - infine pubblicato trent'anni dopo la morte dell'autore - «L'amante di Lady Chatterley» è oggi uno dei romanzi più famosi del Novecento, un inno all'amore e al desiderio contro ogni convenzione. € 10,00
