D.H. Lawrence's extra-ordinary "ordinary reading" of the Apocalypse

| 520 | |a As D. H. Lawrence was dying in 1929 he focused his attention to the value system that had informed his early development. The book Apocalypse was completed in January 1930, two months before his death. In relation to his other works, this is the one that has received the least attention. This is an unfortunate turn of events, because a study of Apocalypse serves to place Lawrence's oeuvre in social and political perspective. He showed a prophetic insight in the destructiveness of a brainless triumphalism that informed empire building in the Western world. The paper will review and profile Lawrence's position in the light of seven decades of intensive scholarship on apocalyptic sources. The value of his contribution will be demonstrated from reader-response point of view. Lastly, a brief comparison with Leo Tolstoy, who five decades before Lawrence, also intensely questioned his own spiritual roots is drawn. This leads to some reflections on the theme: the author as confessor and secular prophet. | ||
