초록

St. Mawr was written in the summer of 1924 when Lawrence stayed at Kiowa Ranch, in Taos, New Mexico. As he lived on the ranch and experienced the Indian tribal culture, his thinking on the organic relationship between man and his universe was remarkably intensified at this period. As a result, his ecological imagination thoroughly permeates St. Mawr, the representative novel of his Taos period. This aspect of the novel, however, has been frequently overlooked while its unusual narrative style and structure, with the apparent lack of unity, drew much critical attention. Taking this into consideration, this paper aims to examine Lawrence’s ecological imagination as embodied in the work and find out the hidden unity of its form. It will be shown that the novel brings to the fore the pernicious consequences of idealism and anthropocentrism prevalent in the modern Western civilization. Pointing out the importance of Pan-figure Lewis as a clue to get over the modern mechanistic world-view, this paper will proceed to probe the ecological implications of the latter part of the novel including the main character Lou Witt’s resolution to settle on the American wilderness ranch.

Abstract

St. Mawr was written in the summer of 1924 when Lawrence stayed at Kiowa Ranch, in Taos, New Mexico. As he lived on the ranch and experienced the Indian tribal culture, his thinking on the organic relationship between man and his universe was remarkably intensified at this period. As a result, his ecological imagination thoroughly permeates St. Mawr, the representative novel of his Taos period. This aspect of the novel, however, has been frequently overlooked while its unusual narrative style and structure, with the apparent lack of unity, drew much critical attention. Taking this into consideration, this paper aims to examine Lawrence’s ecological imagination as embodied in the work and find out the hidden unity of its form. It will be shown that the novel brings to the fore the pernicious consequences of idealism and anthropocentrism prevalent in the modern Western civilization. Pointing out the importance of Pan-figure Lewis as a clue to get over the modern mechanistic world-view, this paper will proceed to probe the ecological implications of the latter part of the novel including the main character Lou Witt’s resolution to settle on the American wilderness ranch.
