白孔雀

內(nèi)容概要

　　THE WHITE PEACOCK， published in 1911， Lawrence started the
novel in 1906 and then rewrote it three times. The curly versions
had the working title of Laconia.
　　It involves such Lawrcnrian themes as the damage associated with
mismatched marriages， and the border country between town and
country. A misanthropic gamekeeper makes an appearance， in some
ways the prototype of Mellor's in Lawrence's last novel， Lady
Chatterley's Lover. The book includes some notably description of
nature and the impact of inclustrialisation on the countryside and
the town. Its provincialism may be compared with the novels of
George Eliot and Thomas Hardy.

作者簡介

　　D.H. LAWRENCE（1885-1930）， one of the greatest figures in
20th-century English　literature. Lawrence saw six and intuition as
ways to undistorted perception of reality and means to respond
to
　　the inhumanity of the industrial culture. From Lawrence's
doctrines of sexual freedom arose obscenity trials， which had a
deep effect on the relationship between literature and
society.
　　In 1912， he wrote： "What the blood feels， and bclicvcs， and says，
is always truce." Lawrence's life after World War I was marked with
continuous and restless wandering.

章節(jié)摘錄

　　"Pour us a drop of tea，" he said to Emily.　　"I don't know that I shall wait on such brutes，" she replied， relenting， and flourishing the teapot.　　"Oh，" said he， taking another piece of bread and butter， "I'm not all alone in my savageness this time."　　"Men are all brutes，" said Lottie， hotly， without looking up from her book.　　"You can tame us，" said Leslie， in mighty good humor.　　She did not reply. George began， in that deliberate voice that so annoyed Emily：　　"It does make you mad， though， to touch the fur， and not be able to grab him"-he laughed quietly.　　Emily moved off in disgust. Lottie opened her mouth sharply to speak， but remained silent.　　"I don't know，" said Leslie. "When it comes to killing it goes against the stomach."　　"If you can run，" said George， "you should be able to run to death. When your blood's up， you don't hang half way."　　"I think a man is horrible，" said Lottie， "who can tear the head off a little mite of a thing like a rabbit， after running it in torture over a field."　　"When he is nothing but a barbarian to begin with "said　　Emily.　　"If you began to run yourself-you'd be the same，" said　　George.　　"Why， women are cruel enough，" said Leslie， with a glance at Lottie. "Yes，" he continued， "they're cruel enough in their way"-another look， and a conucallittle smile.　　"Well，" said George， "what's the good finishing! If you feel Iike doing a thing-you'd better do it."　　……
