Features of the creative poetry of Lawrence, which distinguished him from contemporary modernists Joyce and Wolfe, are due to the fact that he was not carried away by experiments in art, he dreamed about changing and improving life, was obsessed with the idea of ??salvation, man. He saw the main evil in turning a person into a part of a social machine, an appendage of the state structure, and noted in modern culture the ominous stamp of dehumanization. Having become intellectually intellectualized, it kills the immediacy of feeling. Lawrence appealed to intuition, natural principles, believing that they would help a person "be alive, be a whole living person." "He is not interested in literature in itself," Wolfe wrote. "Everything that he writes is not an end in itself, but is full of meaning, directed toward something. ... Phrases sweep straight up, powerful and round, like splashes of water, when a stone was thrown into it. In them there is not a single word chosen for beauty or for improving general architectonics "[15].
Not for the sake of beauty Lawrence creates his works; he has one goal - to help people find themselves, to show the fullness of their individuality. Lawrence considers love to be the sphere of manifestation of opportunities concealed in man. About her written his books. As his "novel of feelings" was conceived his first novel "The White Peacock", as the hymn of tenderness and love sounded the latter - "Lover of Lady Chatterley," "Art performs two important functions - wrote Lawrence in his book on American literature. - First, it reproduces emotional life. And then ... it becomes a source of ideas about the truth of everyday life. " He followed this understanding of the purpose of art in his work.
The work of Lawrence is characterized by a variety of genres, but the novel always remains the leading one. As a novelist, he received recognition during his lifetime and as a novelist is known mainly in the following decades. It should be noted that very often the development of a topic is conducted by Lawrence in several genres. Thus, the life of a mining family, deployed in a wide panorama in the novel "Sons and Lovers", is presented at the most dramatic moment, in which, as in the focus, the fate of all its members was refracted in the play "Widow of Mrs. Holroyd." Holroyd, 1910), in the poem "The Wife of the Miner" (A Collier's Wife, 1911), in the story "The Smell of Chrysanthemums" (Odor of Chrysanthemums, 1909, the second version - 1912).
