'Peter Preston has written and made thoroughly accessible to its readers a book which no-one working on Lawrence can now afford to have far from their work-table. How ever did we live without it? It has become, at a stroke, indispensable.' - John Worthen, D H Lawrence Society's Newsletter 'It creates a most absorbing chronological sequence out of materials brought together from an extremely wide variety of sources, in a very effective and professional way.' - Nicola Ceramella This volume traces the progress of Lawrence's life from its beginnings in the English Midlands through his world-wide travelling until his death in 1930. Details of the composition of his works in many forms and of the controversies that often followed their publication are included. Drawing on information from recent scholarly editions of his letters and works, it also offers details of his wide reading, and his relationships with figures as varied as E.M. Forster, Bertrand Russell, Katherine Mansfield, Lady Ottoline Morell and Aldous Huxley.

Includes information on author and playwright D.H. Lawrence such as a chronology of his life, a chronology of his writings, a checklist of his reading, calendar and maps of his travel, bibliography, filmography, and discography.

This pre-eminent bibliography for D. H. Lawrence was extensively revised, updated and expanded by Paul Poplawski for publication in 2001.

Originally published in 1983, D.H. Lawrence is an annotated bibliographic collection of works by and about D.H. Lawrence. Consisting of three parts, the primary bibliography contains separate bibliographies of Lawrence’s major publications, of collection editions of his works, of his letters, and of concordances to his writings. The secondary bibliography contains bibliographies of biographical and critical publications concerning Lawrence, generally or his individual works. Appendixes and Indexes include an extensive checklist of major foreign-language publications concerning Lawrence and a useful topical and thematic subject index for the guide.

Annotation This guide moves beyond the controversy surrounding Lady Chatterley's Lover to examine the prolific output of poetry, novels and non-fiction that made Lawrence a central figure in the Modernist movement.

In the first book to take D. H. Lawrence's Last Poems as its starting point, Bethan Jones adopts a broadly intertextual approach to explore key aspects of Lawrence's late style. The evolution and meaning of the poems are considered in relation to Lawrence's prose works of this period, including Sketches of Etruscan Places, Lady Chatterley's Lover, and Apocalypse. More broadly, Jones shows that Lawrence's late works are products of a complex process of textual assimilation, as she uncovers the importance of Lawrence's reading in mythology, cosmology, primitivism, mysticism, astronomy, and astrology. The result is a book that highlights the richness and diversity of his poetic output, also prioritizing the masterpieces of Lawrence's mature style which are as accomplished as anything produced by his Modernist contemporaries.

This impressive volume is made up of eleven essays by a distinguished group of contributors, including both Lawrence specialists and well-known critics who work primarily in other areas. Nine of the essays were commissioned especially for this volume, and the other two were revised by their authors for book publication. Each engages in a fresh and provocative way an important aspect of Lawrence's writings. The book's organization follows the chronology of Lawrence's career, and the essays cover the full range of his creative achievement, from analyses of major novels and short fiction to reassessments of his poetry and visionary thought. No single ideology or methodology dominates the volume: the contributions include traditional humanistic studies and formalist readings as well as feminist approaches and analyses that reflect current poststructuralist theory. Some of the essays implicitly challenge the validity of others, and some may well cause controversy. Taken together, they illuminate the richness of Lawrence's writings and the multifaceted nature of his accomplishments. D. H. Lawrence; A Centenary Consideration will be rewarding reading both for Lawrencian specialists and for others interested in modem literature.

First published in 1998. This reference guide is designed for those who would be knowledge able readers of major short stories by D.H. Lawrence when the store of scholarship, investigation, and appraisal is far too vast for all but the expert. An inclusive examination of what has been written about these short stories, each chapter deals with a different short story and consists of five distinct sections: (1) the complete publication history, including all revisions and variants; (2) a thorough examination of recognized and hitherto unrecognized sources, as well as the influences at work on Lawrence in the creation of the story; (3) the story’s relationship to Lawrence’s other writings; (4) acknowledgement and summary of all extant critical studies; and (5) a bibliography of works cited. This study concentrates on six short stories culled from Lawrence’s more than fifty works of short fiction.

In addition, the collection demonstrates that although Lawrence has been misread as sexist, Lawrence studies has continued to attract women scholars."--BOOK JACKET.
