Summary:

"Focusing on D.H. Lawrence's concept of "essential criticism," which was introduced in his posthumously published "Study of Thomas Hardy" and his statement that "every work of art adheres to some system of morality. But it must contain the essential criticism on the morality to which it adheres," this book examines the ways in which Lawrence presents his ideas in his major novels The Rainbow and Women in Love. It explores how this concept plays a crucial role in his fiction as an "other" to the implied author's messages."--Jacket.

Contents:

Lawrentian supreme art and "essential criticism"

The rainbow : essential criticism as equivocation

Women in love : essential criticism as creative strife
