Description
A detailed assessment of D. H. Lawrence's wide-ranging engagements across the verbal, visual and performance arts
Offers the most comprehensive assessment yet of Lawrence's relationship with the arts
Places Lawrence in the context of the latest developments in fields including life writing, posthumanism, queer theory, and technology studies
Considers Lawrence's continued reception in other people's art, and the nature of his relevance today
This book includes twenty-eight innovative chapters by specialists from across the arts, reassessing Lawrence's relationship to aesthetic categories and specific art forms in their historical and critical contexts. A new picture of Lawrence as an artist emerges, expanding from traditional areas of enquiry in prose and poetry into the fields of drama, painting, sculpture, music, architecture, dance, historiography, life writing and queer aesthetics. The Companion presents original research on topics such as Lawrence's politics in his art, his representations of technology, his practice of revising and rewriting, and the relationship between his criticism and creation of prose, poetry and painting. This interdisciplinary Companion also makes a strong case for Lawrence's continuing relevance and aesthetic power, as represented by case studies of his afterlives in biofiction, cinema, musical settings and portraiture.
