초록

Among many different kinds of animals that Lawrence uses as his poetic subjects, birds are peculiar in that they represent Lawrence’s consistent themes: God, primitivism, vitality, sexuality, etc. This paper attempts to delineate the imagery of birds in Lawrence's poetry and to suggest that birds play a vital role in the scheme of the poet's imagination. This paper focuses on "Humming-bird," "Turkey-Cock," and the "Swan" series which, I believe, share the same thematic matters. "Humming-bird," which helps readers return to the origin, is similar to the poetry of 'deep image' in that it appears to show the effort of rebuilding the deep buried forgotten world in the collective unconsciousness. For Lawrence, the humming-bird, small and domesticated, functions as the lens of a telescope through which one can see the reality of the pre-historic times. Lawrence also reveals his interest in primitivism and vitality through the image of 'Uroboros,' a snake biting its own tail, a symbol of birth and rebirth. The imagery of the swan is much more diverse in Lawrence's "Swan" series poems. Lawrence's swans represent: the Holy Spirit, God, Zeus, vitality, phallic symbols, etc.
