: : I am a school student from Norway and i wondered if
: : you could send me some info about D.H. lawrence and
: : why he wrote the book "Lady Chatterley`s Lover".
: : Thank you!!:)

: I am a high school student from Toronto, and it happens that I also have to do the researsch about D.H. Lawrence. Here is what I found so far from the MERRIAM WEBSTER'S ENCYCLOPEDIA OF LITERATURE:

: David Herbert (b. Sept. 11, 1885, Eastwood, Nottinghamshire, Eng.__d. March 2, 1930, Vence, Fr.) English short story writer, poet, and essayist, and one of the most important and controversial 20th-century English novelists. His works are notable for their pionate intensity and for a sensuality that centers on, but is not limited to, the erotic.[That's what encyclopedia of literature saiys. I hated his style and stories.]

: Lawrence worked as a clerk and as a pupil-teacher before attending University College in Nottingham; he earned his teaching certificate in 1908. Ford Madox Ford published much of Lawrence's early work in the "English Review"
: and also helped place his first novel, THE WHITE PEA (1911).[Sorry, I have no idea how to underline things on the internet]

: In 1912 Lawrence met and fell in love with Frieda Weekley. The two began an intensely intimate but difficult relationship that was to form the underlying theme of much of his later fiction. SONS AND LOVERS, Lawrence's first mature novel, was published in 1913, as was his first volume of poems, LOVE POEMS AND OTHERS.These were followed by THE PRUSSIAN OFFICER AND OTHER STORIES(1914).

: The years of World War I were a dark period in Lawrence's life. THE RAINBOW (1915) was banned as obscene. Lawrence's pacifism and his wife's German origins surrounded them with suion and hostility. His many unpleasant experiences at the hands of the military authorities are vividly described in KANGAROO(1920).

: After the war Lawrence went to Italy, where he produced a group of novels consisting of THE LOST GIRL(1920), AARON'S ROD (1922), and the uncompleted MR. NOON (published in its entirety only in 1984). He also wrote his brilliant, if idiosyncratic, STUDIES IN CLIC AMERICAN LITERATURE (1923). By this time he had found a publisher willing to reissue THE RAINBOW and to bring out its sequel, WOMEN IN LOVE (1921).

: Having wandered about Italy, Germany, and Austria and taveled to Ceylon (Sri Lanka), the Lawrences went on to Australia. In the summer of 1922 they accepted an invitation from a wealthy admirer, Mabel Dodge, to join her at Taos, N.M. Ever restless, in 1923 they moved to Mexico; Lawrence's fascination with Aztec culture resulted culture resulted in THE PLUMED SERPENT(1926). During the winter of 1934-25 Lawrence fell seriously ill with tuberculosis, which had plagued him from an early age.

: He returned to Italy in 1925. That same year his short novel ST. MAWR was prblished, and he then wrote the posthumously published ETRUSCAN PLACES(1932). He also started LADY CHATTERLEY'S LOVER; privately published in 1928, it led an underground life until legal decisions in New York (1959) and London (1960) made it freely available. The dying Lawrence moved to the south of France in 1929. He was buried in Vence, and his ashes were removed to Taos in 1935.

: Lawrence wrote with poetic vividness, attempting to describe subjective states of emotion, sensation, and intuition. His great novels remain difficrlt because their realism is underlain by obsessive personal metaphors, by elements of mythology, and above all by his desire to express the inexpressible.[This paragraph is an absolute s...]

There is a biography:Harry T. Moore "The Priest
of Love".
