Research on the Theme of Creativity in D. H. Lawrence’s Works

Abstract

The theme of creativity is a common theme in D. H. Lawrence’s main novels, including Sons and Lovers, The Rainbow, Women in Love and Lady Chatterley’s Lover. Sons and Lovers remains blurry in the possibility of true creative fulfillment. In The Rainbow, Lawrence begins to ponder over creativity clearly. Lawrence’s Women in Love handles the theme of creativity in a more dismal and realistic way. The novel Lady Chatterley’s Lover does not directly portray the realistic societal level within the process of creativity. It only portrays creative self-renewal on a personal level. If seen as the sole means to creative fulfilment, the process of sextual exploration has its great limits.
