초록

The heroine of D. H. Lawrence’s Lady Chatterley’s Lover, Constance Chatterley (we call her Connie in this paper) has lived in a sordid and gloomy circumstance symbolized as Ragby. Ragby is a kind of dead world symbolized by her crippled husband Clifford. Clifford is a man who lives a life in death. Connie tries to escape from the dead world by seeking her own nature. As spring comes, the nature begins to regain the life force according to its own nature. The coming of life of nature can be explained as the return of Persephone from the Hades. Connie sees the return of Persephone in the woods and the hatching of the pheasants and gets pregnant a baby herself. Her getting pregnant is her regaining of her own nature. After getting pregnant, she celebrates the return of Persephone from the Hades by dancing in the rain. And the dancing in the rain is a symbol of baptism, though Lawrence himself is not a Christian. Lawrence asserts that the harmony of the body and the soul is the focus of this novel. What the author pursues in the novel is the ideal life of a modern woman and his ideal is expressed through the life of Connie.
