Despite the obvious fact that Lewis has a lesser role than that of the eponymous stallion in St. Mawr, this paper highlights the Welsh groom, rather than the horse, locating his Celtic alterity in colonial confrontation. Lewis's interaction with other characters may present some striking aspects in that light. As Mrs. Witt's brief romance with him forms a sub-plot that reflects Lou's dramatic encounter with St. Mawr and its aftermath, the narrative development of St Mawr intimates a certain structural doubling between Lewis and Lou. Initially, Lewis is aligned with Phoenix, the other groom and racial other from America. What happens later, however, is no less than a mockery of Phoenix's racial difference, in notable contrast to the vicissitude of Lewis's Celtic identity. Although Lawrence's presentation of Lewis as a superstitious, childlike, and femininely-sensitive man undeniably implies the discursive field of Celticism, the same character is granted primeval "Britishness." Along with the structural doubling of Lou and Lewis, such a turn indicates the significant extent to which Lewis's Celtic otherness allows Lou to transform her white subjectivity without resorting to a primitivist pursuit of an indigenous male. Lawrence, in this way, draws a meaningful, if subtle, distinction between the New England woman and Lou in their seemingly shared but profoundly different grasp of "wild America."
Abstract
Despite the obvious fact that Lewis has a lesser role than that of the eponymous stallion in St. Mawr, this paper highlights the Welsh groom, rather than the horse, locating his Celtic alterity in colonial confrontation. Lewis's interaction with other characters may present some striking aspects in that light. As Mrs. Witt's brief romance with him forms a sub-plot that reflects Lou's dramatic encounter with St. Mawr and its aftermath, the narrative development of St Mawr intimates a certain structural doubling between Lewis and Lou. Initially, Lewis is aligned with Phoenix, the other groom and racial other from America. What happens later, however, is no less than a mockery of Phoenix's racial difference, in notable contrast to the vicissitude of Lewis's Celtic identity. Although Lawrence's presentation of Lewis as a superstitious, childlike, and femininely-sensitive man undeniably implies the discursive field of Celticism, the same character is granted primeval "Britishness." Along with the structural doubling of Lou and Lewis, such a turn indicates the significant extent to which Lewis's Celtic otherness allows Lou to transform her white subjectivity without resorting to a primitivist pursuit of an indigenous male. Lawrence, in this way, draws a meaningful, if subtle, distinction between the New England woman and Lou in their seemingly shared but profoundly different grasp of "wild America."
