1 00:00:03,500 --> 00:00:24,340 I have to tell. Plus, the title of Lawrence is 1923 Poetry Collection, and maybe it's to children flowers, not because we. 2 00:00:24,340 --> 00:00:33,730 You'd like everyone in the world to be destroyed, so I should indeed and the world empty of people. 3 00:00:33,730 --> 00:00:39,130 Yes. Treating you yourself, do you find it's a beautiful clean thought? 4 00:00:39,130 --> 00:00:49,870 The world's empty of people, just uninterrupted, uninterrupted grass and hair sitting up, but projected you'd be dead yourself. 5 00:00:49,870 --> 00:00:57,070 So what would you do? I would die like a shocked to know that the earth would really be cleaned. 6 00:00:57,070 --> 00:01:02,200 Of all the people, it is the most beautiful and freeing thought. 7 00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:09,040 Then it would never be another humanity created for a universal default. 8 00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:19,210 No suggestion that there would be nothing worse, nothing just because humanity is wiped out. 9 00:01:19,210 --> 00:01:24,040 You flatter yourself that the everything but how. 10 00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:33,580 If there were no people, do you think that creation depends on man in many dozens of trees on the grass and goats? 11 00:01:33,580 --> 00:01:41,020 I much prefer to think of the mark rising up in the morning of the Human with World Business Day. 12 00:01:41,020 --> 00:01:51,880 He must go, that is the grass, and has spent hours of the unseen hosts, actual angels that go about freely when the dirty humanity doesn't interact. 13 00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:58,180 So very nice. If only that was swept off the face of the earth. 14 00:01:58,180 --> 00:02:09,280 Creation would go on so marvellously with a new start. Non-human man is one of the mistakes of creation like that is Sauri. 15 00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:16,540 That man will never be gone, she said. Be seduced by diabolical knowledge of the horrors of the systems. 16 00:02:16,540 --> 00:02:25,300 The world will go with him. Oh no, we have not. So I believe in the power of angels and demons that are our forerunners. 17 00:02:25,300 --> 00:02:30,910 They will destroy us because we don't know about the issue of Sauri. 18 00:02:30,910 --> 00:02:36,190 We're not proud. They've crawled out from the earth as we do. 19 00:02:36,190 --> 00:02:44,680 And besides, look at the earth simply BlueBell's they are a sign that's pure creation takes place, even the butterfly. 20 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:49,780 But humanity never gets beyond the caterpillar stage. It rots in the chrysalis. 21 00:02:49,780 --> 00:02:57,530 It will never have wings. It is a. creation like monkeys and baboons. 22 00:02:57,530 --> 00:03:05,260 I mentioned intellectual in relation to a retreat that Lawrence in some respects resembles left tell story. 23 00:03:05,260 --> 00:03:13,480 The views expressed here by Birken and particularly the comments about the issue of Sauri mandatory insurance QUICA. 24 00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:20,620 In the late 1980s, Tolstoyan was turning sixty so many times against sex altogether. 25 00:03:20,620 --> 00:03:28,780 He thought it best if people did not marry and if they did, to have sexual relations only at distant intervals. 26 00:03:28,780 --> 00:03:34,840 These views are voiced by Share the central character about a sonata for crisis. 27 00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:42,130 Not to critics of this, without much doubt to the commission's recommendations would be followed. 28 00:03:42,130 --> 00:03:49,720 Humanity would die out since debts would exceed births, tostadas, spouses. 29 00:03:49,720 --> 00:04:00,280 What will die out is man the animal. What a terrible misfortune that would be, just as the animals of prehistoric times died out. 30 00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:06,160 So probably will the human animal let it die out. 31 00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:12,310 I am no more sorry for this two legged animal that I am for the exclusive source, etc. 32 00:04:12,310 --> 00:04:20,950 What I care about is that true life should not die out the love of creatures that are able to love. 33 00:04:20,950 --> 00:04:28,930 It's remarkable how interaction this passage sounds, and it is in fact far more characteristic of Lawrence than it is of Tolstoy. 34 00:04:28,930 --> 00:04:38,260 These two passages that I just read approve of humanity's existence only in proportion to its worth. 35 00:04:38,260 --> 00:04:42,430 Both men clearly were shocked and conscious of Darwin's theories. 36 00:04:42,430 --> 00:04:47,860 And rather than conflating them with romantic nationalism and producing such theories as 37 00:04:47,860 --> 00:04:57,040 stated as fascism and Nazism three times Darwin's characterisation in terms of species, 38 00:04:57,040 --> 00:04:59,650 let's be Tolstoy's comment. There is a contradiction. 39 00:04:59,650 --> 00:05:10,720 By following closely shifts proscriptions, humanity will die out precisely by virtue of becoming more true in its way of living and loving. 40 00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:16,690 Verkin, on the other hand, implies that the survival of the fittest works out not, as Darwin argued, 41 00:05:16,690 --> 00:05:24,360 in terms of environmental factors and sexual selection, but in terms of spiritual selection, the spiritual. 42 00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:27,520 Will die out. 43 00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:39,820 Lawrence did not respond to the age of nuclear weaponry and did not conceive of a sudden active suicide of humanity, but a slow, passive one. 44 00:05:39,820 --> 00:05:46,150 There is something of human rights campaigner in Birkins picture of the post human world with a hasset. 45 00:05:46,150 --> 00:05:52,930 You know, not that Lawrence was a campaign for the rights of animals or any other being, 46 00:05:52,930 --> 00:06:02,080 but it was because he had such high standards of humanity that he had such contempt for it during the First World War on the whole, 47 00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:08,140 has been doing a far better job of being has than people of being caught out of 48 00:06:08,140 --> 00:06:15,760 the more shame because people have failed to be those cells has been inhuman. 49 00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:19,870 They might be succeeded by first human or non-human world. 50 00:06:19,870 --> 00:06:26,440 But this linguistic dichotomy is complicated by the fact that Lawrence did not think that being human 51 00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:35,500 was sufficient for mankind to be fully human was also to be open to and to incorporate the non-human. 52 00:06:35,500 --> 00:06:42,400 It is not clear to me if he thought that this was true of other species, whether to be o'haire, to be fully alive. 53 00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:49,030 One must also embrace, not have reality. But he certainly demands to pass. 54 00:06:49,030 --> 00:06:56,830 The word inhuman in his usage is therefore one of those words which can go either way. 55 00:06:56,830 --> 00:07:06,850 Mechanisation, these inhuman goodrum perceives that the matter falls over latenight, strong, dangerous world, unquote. 56 00:07:06,850 --> 00:07:14,290 Mindless, inhuman, but also sounds like strange machines, heavy oil. 57 00:07:14,290 --> 00:07:23,650 When Jerrold's takes over as manager of his father's mines, he has a will to, quote, accomplish the purpose irresistibly, inhumanly. 58 00:07:23,650 --> 00:07:32,860 It was this inhuman principle and the mechanism he wants to construct that inspired Jerrems with an almost religious exhortation. 59 00:07:32,860 --> 00:07:41,080 The world of ice and snow in which he dies is inhuman suicides himself and broken by fleeing from it. 60 00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:49,540 But as I say, inhuman also. It denotes that which humanity must embrace in order to survive and to develop. 61 00:07:49,540 --> 00:07:54,490 Bertke conceives of the plane on which he wants himself and Ursula to meet. 62 00:07:54,490 --> 00:07:58,600 There could be no obligation because that is not a standard for action, 63 00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:05,740 that because the understanding has been ripped from that plane, it is quite inhuman. 64 00:08:05,740 --> 00:08:12,010 So there can be no calling to book in any form whatsoever because one is outside of all that 65 00:08:12,010 --> 00:08:21,160 is accepted and nothing known applies correspondingly when they have that ecstatic experience. 66 00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:27,640 In the chapter called Excuse US, who feels that this was released at last? 67 00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:35,650 This is not a lot more passion. It was the daughters of men coming back to the Sons of God, 68 00:08:35,650 --> 00:08:45,640 the strange danger of sons of God who are in the beginning of humanity that is bordered by two kinds of inhumanity, 69 00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:51,790 one of which you should be able to, which represents its consummation, but just spoken. 70 00:08:51,790 --> 00:09:01,030 And Australia do not spend all that time in ecstasy, nor should this kind of inhumanity overwhelm an individual's being. 71 00:09:01,030 --> 00:09:06,850 Two weeks ago, I mentioned that Lawrence saw the two two Italian split as one of the fundamental 72 00:09:06,850 --> 00:09:12,490 values of European history and as the Italians as overwhelmingly human. 73 00:09:12,490 --> 00:09:21,370 Million people all react with their personalities. The Germans, on the other hand, worshipped faceless trees. 74 00:09:21,370 --> 00:09:30,970 The German is a tree, so as his gods are not human, neither extreme represents full human potentiality. 75 00:09:30,970 --> 00:09:35,980 As I suggested last week, one should combine the Italian and the German, 76 00:09:35,980 --> 00:09:43,510 the human and the inhuman as it follows that contact with animals is good for humans. 77 00:09:43,510 --> 00:09:50,530 Tom Franklin realises that he must marry later. Well, starting with the use loving time. 78 00:09:50,530 --> 00:09:54,670 A few years later, he only manages to calm down the five year old Anna, 79 00:09:54,670 --> 00:10:02,110 who was screaming for her mother to take her, to go take her to see the house being given their supper. 80 00:10:02,110 --> 00:10:10,090 Melissa, the tranquilly first meeting to Pheasant Creek and have sex after she has handled one of the chicks. 81 00:10:10,090 --> 00:10:19,420 But I was all just soporific Caracas's. Yet they can valuably humble man by setting themselves against what would nowadays be called speciesism, 82 00:10:19,420 --> 00:10:25,360 the human failure to recognise the intrinsic value of Hubbert's. 83 00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:35,470 We see this in Lawrences most anthologised poem, The Snake, the first person speakerphones finds a poisonous snake drinking from his water trough in. 84 00:10:35,470 --> 00:10:40,660 Tell me narcissistically, was it humility to feel so honest? 85 00:10:40,660 --> 00:10:44,680 I felt so honoured that the power kibbitz, 86 00:10:44,680 --> 00:10:52,570 even though the voice of my education said to me he must be killed when the snake then goes back into a crack in the wall. 87 00:10:52,570 --> 00:10:57,880 When he came, the speaker finally throws a lot at him as me deeply regrets it. 88 00:10:57,880 --> 00:11:03,580 I despise myself and the verses, the voices of my costume and education. 89 00:11:03,580 --> 00:11:11,350 And I thought of the albatross I had to risk my chance with one of the lords of life. 90 00:11:11,350 --> 00:11:19,060 There is a less famous but funny a poem in which the Speaker is also humbled by an animal, in this case a fact. 91 00:11:19,060 --> 00:11:26,020 He comes into his Florentin room morning and thinks about flying around in circles. 92 00:11:26,020 --> 00:11:29,830 He opens the window and flicks his way to achieve that. 93 00:11:29,830 --> 00:11:35,620 But he will not leave the room because it is powered by the sun lights outside. 94 00:11:35,620 --> 00:11:39,730 After a long battle, he finally does manage to get the bass to the outside. 95 00:11:39,730 --> 00:11:53,010 But that evening he ruminates. I believe he chucks Pipistrelle, see me here on this terrace rising and then it's nice that he sets the loud, long one. 96 00:11:53,010 --> 00:11:59,050 The time breaks the ice skating on both occasions. 97 00:11:59,050 --> 00:12:04,810 The Speaker is to the specs and Axel Aristocrat's the long sounds like the spirit 98 00:12:04,810 --> 00:12:11,170 of the aristocracy of living things is suggested in of Thomas Hardy of 1914. 99 00:12:11,170 --> 00:12:19,510 The title might lead one to expect a study of Thomas Hardy, but on the first page tumbles headlong into Florence's ontology. 100 00:12:19,510 --> 00:12:27,460 To wit, the prime function of a living thing is to be itself and to reach into the unknown. 101 00:12:27,460 --> 00:12:32,500 Beings may be rax according to how close they are to the growing tick amongst 102 00:12:32,500 --> 00:12:39,250 that kind Lawrences human and animal characters often close to the ground. 103 00:12:39,250 --> 00:12:48,910 And in this respect they are equals. In 1921, Lawrence published an extraordinary collection of poems called Tortoise's. 104 00:12:48,910 --> 00:12:55,330 All six poems are about choices and the last two or about their sex love. 105 00:12:55,330 --> 00:12:58,930 The poem talks shout muses on sounds, 106 00:12:58,930 --> 00:13:09,040 the man to watch his face at broadcast and reflects to him to become whole again after long speaking through what is lost. 107 00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:16,630 The same cry for the tortoise as from Christ, the Cyrus cry of the notes, 108 00:13:16,630 --> 00:13:25,840 that which is called torn asunder, that which is in part finding its hole again throughout the universe. 109 00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:35,590 Christ and the Cyrus. Of course, those two came together in that lake story cock, as we saw in third place in the Cyrus and the tortoise, 110 00:13:35,590 --> 00:13:41,720 are all the in being ruptured and seeking wholeness as we might expect. 111 00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:47,740 The novel, which has as much contempt for the majority of the humankind as women in law, 112 00:13:47,740 --> 00:13:59,920 it shows a great interest in animals that generates two chapter titles, rabbits and frequently suddenly filled the narrative consciousness. 113 00:13:59,920 --> 00:14:06,670 Minor goodness cats, both in Australia and the novel are distracted from that conversation. 114 00:14:06,670 --> 00:14:14,590 When the minority goes out into the garden, the young cats trotted laundry down the path, waving his tail. 115 00:14:14,590 --> 00:14:25,240 He was an ordinary tabby with white paws, a slender young gentleman approaching fluffy, brownish grey connexions, speeding up the side of the fence. 116 00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:30,820 The lino walked straight up to her with manly nonchalance. 117 00:14:30,820 --> 00:14:39,760 She crouched beforehand and pressed herself on the ground. In a few minutes he got instinctively on his slim legs, walked up to her. 118 00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:47,170 Then suddenly, so pure excess might come with his fall on the side of her face. 119 00:14:47,170 --> 00:14:53,170 He does this sometimes, I suppose watching this subject's book defends him. 120 00:14:53,170 --> 00:14:59,680 Well, I don't mind. I must assert himself as the face of this lovely female. 121 00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:03,370 The passage uses the language of aristocracy persistently, 122 00:15:03,370 --> 00:15:10,120 as though emphasising that the terms of being wrested away from their usual positions and in doubt become more deserving. 123 00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:14,030 Tomcats a couple of chapters earlier. 124 00:15:14,030 --> 00:15:18,730 We have another example of the male exerting his will over a female to us. 125 00:15:18,730 --> 00:15:23,830 This disapproval. This man is Homosapien Jolivet and. 126 00:15:23,830 --> 00:15:28,530 Female based in that the sisters of white teens, and that, of course, 127 00:15:28,530 --> 00:15:37,330 in general starts up and forces this term like to remain by the level crossing whilst a long freight train passes by. 128 00:15:37,330 --> 00:15:46,840 He sat listening and obstinate, forcing the wheeling there, which spun and swerved like the wind, yet could not get out of the grasp of his will. 129 00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:54,700 Both men and of course, were sweating with violence. I, on the other hand, reverses these gender roles. 130 00:15:54,700 --> 00:16:05,950 When she sees the minor quote, she lifted the caps head with her long, slow white fingers, not letting him drink, holding him in her power. 131 00:16:05,950 --> 00:16:13,420 It was always the same, this joy in how she manifested particularly power for any male being. 132 00:16:13,420 --> 00:16:21,830 She had to think of all the softly planted paw of the cat, and her voice had the same whimsical, humorous note. 133 00:16:21,830 --> 00:16:29,290 But Jones is also being a bully, although he was successful in dominating manner, 134 00:16:29,290 --> 00:16:37,630 whereas the minor blinked forbearing with a male board expression licking his whiskers. 135 00:16:37,630 --> 00:16:43,870 What is noteworthy in both cases is that the humans and animals are pitted against each other in the contest of souls, 136 00:16:43,870 --> 00:16:47,200 and that is continuity between them. 137 00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:57,910 And yes, at times the novel's not questions of human understanding of animals, although the question is raised by and in relation to the characters. 138 00:16:57,910 --> 00:17:04,330 Since the novel is written by a human, it necessarily reflects on the novel itself. 139 00:17:04,330 --> 00:17:13,240 Halfway through the novel version of the show struggle to control the frenzied and very strong rabbit out of it. 140 00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:21,280 Put it down in a garden. It flies round and round several times, then suddenly stops and starts moving some grass, Gourgeon observes. 141 00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:27,610 Her arm is bleeding. It's not its most in that general response. 142 00:17:27,610 --> 00:17:33,340 The question is what is madness? I don't suppose it's rabbit that doesn't. 143 00:17:33,340 --> 00:17:39,690 It is just know that's what it is to be a rabbit. 144 00:17:39,690 --> 00:17:51,000 Joe, sure. Yes, Bismarck is repeatedly described as I wonder if the staff and the announcer hesitates to make any judgement as to the sanity 145 00:17:51,000 --> 00:18:02,040 or otherwise of this rabid distrust of anthropomorphism is finally made explicit and incidents between the two sisters. 146 00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:08,580 One day as they're walking along the line, they see a a singing, shrill and self-important plea. 147 00:18:08,580 --> 00:18:16,680 Gudrun grins and comments. Isn't he a little boy, George at the summer breeze right then. 148 00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:19,860 Today is a sort of persistent, obtrusive, 149 00:18:19,860 --> 00:18:29,610 but has stopped short politicians lifting up their voices from the platform level that he must make themselves heard at any cost. 150 00:18:29,610 --> 00:18:36,630 But even from this kind of revulsion, some yellow submarine suddenly shock along the road in front of her. 151 00:18:36,630 --> 00:18:48,510 And they look so uncanny and inhuman, like flaring yellow darts, shooting through some weird sniffing around that she said to herself, 152 00:18:48,510 --> 00:18:56,250 After all these impudence to call the little boy Jorges, they are really unknown to us. 153 00:18:56,250 --> 00:19:02,070 They are unknown forces. It is important to look at them as though they were the same as human beings. 154 00:19:02,070 --> 00:19:13,290 They are from another world. How stupid anthropomorphism is Gujral is really important is to those making her the measure of everything, 155 00:19:13,290 --> 00:19:17,340 making everything come down to human standards. Rupert is quite right. 156 00:19:17,340 --> 00:19:21,360 Human beings are born painting the universe with their own image. 157 00:19:21,360 --> 00:19:25,350 The universe is not human, thank God. 158 00:19:25,350 --> 00:19:36,840 Yet many of the novel's representations that most notably the aristocratic Mindo have done precisely this painting with the image of human beings. 159 00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:40,350 In this respect, the novel has different modes. 160 00:19:40,350 --> 00:19:50,250 I am intrigued in the first week's lecture on consciousness that the novel's characterisation has two aspects how realistic and non realistic mode, 161 00:19:50,250 --> 00:19:55,560 in the latter of which speech and action partake of the same nature. 162 00:19:55,560 --> 00:20:05,430 Ursula's objections to anthropomorphism, like her objections to Birkins preaching, belong to the realistic aspects of the novel. 163 00:20:05,430 --> 00:20:12,690 But we do not know really slowly, each can describe the miner as a young lord without hypocrisy. 164 00:20:12,690 --> 00:20:18,240 My hope is not a real part, but the novel's construction. 165 00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:26,430 The time Lord is being used as a metaphor, and that's caused by what Art asserts the liberty to employ. 166 00:20:26,430 --> 00:20:36,060 Nonetheless, the novel points towards real tomcats and purports to describe what such attacks are like. 167 00:20:36,060 --> 00:20:41,640 Contrast this with the artistry displayed by Lovecraft in his bronze statue. 168 00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:50,770 Of course, the girl sitting on it is naked, squirming, trying to hide her nakedness. 169 00:20:50,770 --> 00:20:57,510 But there was no point in the whole stood stock still stretched and kind of stopped. 170 00:20:57,510 --> 00:21:04,380 It was a massive, magnificent stallion, reduced with pent up power. 171 00:21:04,380 --> 00:21:12,870 Its neck was arched and terrible like a cycle. Its lights were pressed back, rigid with power. 172 00:21:12,870 --> 00:21:23,610 Gujrat pays homage to it, but Ursula challenges. Why did you make the hall so stick it as stiff as a block sit. 173 00:21:23,610 --> 00:21:28,200 He repeated it all at once. Yes. 174 00:21:28,200 --> 00:21:35,820 Look how stuck and stupid and brutalises horses are sensitive and sensitive. 175 00:21:35,820 --> 00:21:42,990 Really. This is he, he said, with an insulting patience and condescension in his voice. 176 00:21:42,990 --> 00:21:48,180 That force is a certain form, half of a whole form. 177 00:21:48,180 --> 00:21:55,320 It is part of the work of art, a piece of art form. It is not a picture of a friendly horse to which you give a sugar. 178 00:21:55,320 --> 00:22:00,630 Do you see that is angry, but it is a picture of a horse. 179 00:22:00,630 --> 00:22:05,010 Nevertheless, as you know, it is not a picture of a cow. 180 00:22:05,010 --> 00:22:09,580 Certainly encouraging for a flash of brilliance. 181 00:22:09,580 --> 00:22:17,430 Anxious to avoid any more of this, any more of us see this foolish persistence in giving herself away. 182 00:22:17,430 --> 00:22:21,540 What do you mean by this is the picture, of course, she cries. That's her sister. 183 00:22:21,540 --> 00:22:29,190 What do you mean by a horse? You mean an idea you have in your head and which you want to see represented. 184 00:22:29,190 --> 00:22:33,060 There is another idea altogether points another idea. 185 00:22:33,060 --> 00:22:39,010 Call into force, if you like, will say it is not a horse. I'm just as much right to say that your horse isn't a horse. 186 00:22:39,010 --> 00:22:48,580 That is the falsity of your own makeup. Ursula Waygood baffled that the words came. 187 00:22:48,580 --> 00:22:54,190 But why does he have this idea? Of course, she said, I notice this idea. 188 00:22:54,190 --> 00:23:02,170 I know this is a picture of himself. We look at Smelted with a picture of myself. 189 00:23:02,170 --> 00:23:08,710 He repeated interation. This is the big problem. That is a concept, a work of art. 190 00:23:08,710 --> 00:23:12,910 It is a work of art. This is a picture of nothing, absolutely nothing. 191 00:23:12,910 --> 00:23:17,590 It has nothing to do with anything but itself. It has no relation with the everyday world. 192 00:23:17,590 --> 00:23:24,170 There is no connexion between them. Absolutely not. That's translates one to the other is worse than foolish. 193 00:23:24,170 --> 00:23:29,950 It is a darkening of all, a making of confusion everywhere. 194 00:23:29,950 --> 00:23:40,300 Did you see? You must not confuse the relative lack of action with the absolute world of art that you must not do. 195 00:23:40,300 --> 00:23:45,910 Goochland supports this demonic restatement of Oscar Wilde with reference to her own 196 00:23:45,910 --> 00:23:52,000 tiny sculptures of birds and animals bursting into silence after this outburst. 197 00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:58,630 She was furious. It isn't a word of it. True. All of this harangue you have made to me, she replied flatly. 198 00:23:58,630 --> 00:24:08,170 The horse is a picture of your own. Stop stupid brutality on the girl was a girl you loved and tortured and then ignored. 199 00:24:08,170 --> 00:24:12,370 Gudrun is furious that her sister rushes in where angels would fear to tread. 200 00:24:12,370 --> 00:24:22,240 But the rhetoric of the scene favours Ursula, who likes the category of the aesthetic over the aesthetes themselves. 201 00:24:22,240 --> 00:24:31,430 The novel across most of the animals, which it sculpts a certain subjectivity even whilst describing them in human terms. 202 00:24:31,430 --> 00:24:39,910 It is consistent with this attitude that, conversely, animals can be used as symbols for human characteristics. 203 00:24:39,910 --> 00:24:47,180 Lawrence's short works in particular, use them in this way in the natural Christianity. 204 00:24:47,180 --> 00:24:56,470 I mentioned the man who dies. I summarise the plot that Christ comes back to life after his crucifixion, has an affair with the princess of ISIS, 205 00:24:56,470 --> 00:25:05,800 and then on his own in the world, I discuss the source of the story's alternative title, The Escaped Cock. 206 00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:10,630 The story opens with a peasant couple who live near Jerusalem. 207 00:25:10,630 --> 00:25:17,320 They owned the car, which is proud and strong, so much so that they fear it will fly away from them. 208 00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:23,560 So they try to find a piece of string. The cop is distraught. 209 00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:29,530 He could only have the hands he wants when they choose to walk within his own words. 210 00:25:29,530 --> 00:25:35,170 But one day he breaks the string and escapes. At the very same moment. 211 00:25:35,170 --> 00:25:40,330 The man who dies wakes up in his tomb, which is nearby. 212 00:25:40,330 --> 00:25:44,170 Once he's got the stone away way that to a peasant family, 213 00:25:44,170 --> 00:25:51,970 he helps the peasants to catch the cold and the shouts of in that house until he is clearly better recovered from his wounds. 214 00:25:51,970 --> 00:25:59,230 And then he pays to take the cop with him. So they venture into the world together. 215 00:25:59,230 --> 00:26:07,780 Soon afterwards, the man who dies leaves the cockpit in he's state where it has moved over a goodly number of hands. 216 00:26:07,780 --> 00:26:13,600 And then she goes on to find the equipment for himself. When was negotiated. 217 00:26:13,600 --> 00:26:22,360 This story's publication, the publisher, Charles Law, asks for the title to be changed from the escaped car to the man who died. 218 00:26:22,360 --> 00:26:29,980 And Lawrence eventually agrees, insisting, though, that the original title should be retained as the subtitle. 219 00:26:29,980 --> 00:26:35,710 This project to the day should fail to appear on the next month. Lawrence died. 220 00:26:35,710 --> 00:26:45,460 The first English edition was published by Seka in nineteen thirty one as the man who died a title the only time it was never approved by Lawrence. 221 00:26:45,460 --> 00:26:54,580 What is interesting is that Lawrence insisted that the animal was quite complex and familiar should carry the title rather than he himself. 222 00:26:54,580 --> 00:27:04,450 The title of the man who died. The man, not the God, is already iconoclastic in precisely the way that the recent Christ himself is. 223 00:27:04,450 --> 00:27:08,800 But the escaped cop pushes the point a step further. 224 00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:16,090 So far from being God, this man now once more to resemble a cop as he leads the priestess behind, 225 00:27:16,090 --> 00:27:23,440 we can almost see him shake his proud cross, come and hear him cry over his conquest. 226 00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:28,690 Animal analogies also played a part in some of Lawrence's earlier fictions. 227 00:27:28,690 --> 00:27:33,100 The news that the Lady Bird was finished in nineteen twenty one. 228 00:27:33,100 --> 00:27:39,200 A young married couple. So young married woman Daphne Kushi not. 229 00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:46,060 A couple visits, a Hungarian pounds who is lying wounded in an army hospital in England. 230 00:27:46,060 --> 00:27:53,260 Eventually, he awakens to what this is about, a cold night living, which is a dog that's pure sexuality, 231 00:27:53,260 --> 00:27:59,470 which contrasts sharply with that which she has with a loving blonde husband. 232 00:27:59,470 --> 00:28:06,970 This has got a nice face. Like his Greek namesake repeatedly likens to animals, 233 00:28:06,970 --> 00:28:12,830 she finds it so full of life in his own little animal way that I'm ready to accept 234 00:28:12,830 --> 00:28:20,530 his fine black hat cuts over his small is his family crest as the lady bird, 235 00:28:20,530 --> 00:28:24,910 which is associated with paternity through its connexion to our lady, 236 00:28:24,910 --> 00:28:33,670 but which he also considers to be a descendant of the Egyptian people once he and Daphne have started an affair. 237 00:28:33,670 --> 00:28:37,420 He tells you on the night what you want to know. 238 00:28:37,420 --> 00:28:46,070 Why don't you do it? The connexion of an animal with an object of Egyptian warship and the Hungarian approach comes first. 239 00:28:46,070 --> 00:28:53,680 The story itself in a long tradition of characterising animals in terms of spiritual principles. 240 00:28:53,680 --> 00:29:00,490 This story was published in the same collection as another book called The Fox in 1923. 241 00:29:00,490 --> 00:29:05,720 In this story, two young women can't form together, but they get along with each other. 242 00:29:05,720 --> 00:29:10,230 But they find the charming difficult and their chickens are coached by baseball. 243 00:29:10,230 --> 00:29:11,200 A contact context. 244 00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:20,620 This is the First World War when a lot of young women from cells without men to begin with and set up together so they can to women who set up a farm. 245 00:29:20,620 --> 00:29:25,240 But they are not very good athletes and they find that chickens are being crushed by force. 246 00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:32,200 One day the woman, the one who is called Marsh, sees the false face to face that always meat. 247 00:29:32,200 --> 00:29:37,180 Right. And he knew she was spellbound. 248 00:29:37,180 --> 00:29:42,280 She knew because of that. 249 00:29:42,280 --> 00:29:47,170 As she goes, she saw his craft while she held smooth like a feather. 250 00:29:47,170 --> 00:29:56,830 She saw his white buttocks twinkle. Given that this is a long story, you know better than to ignore any reference to twinkling buttocks. 251 00:29:56,830 --> 00:29:59,770 It is a sign of good things to come. 252 00:29:59,770 --> 00:30:08,710 Sure enough, some days later, a young soldier returning from the First World War turns up at that farmhouse and ends up lodging with the two women. 253 00:30:08,710 --> 00:30:13,360 When March 1st sees them, she freezes to March. 254 00:30:13,360 --> 00:30:21,070 He was pithos, whether it was the thrusting forward of his head or the Glikson of fine line whiteish 255 00:30:21,070 --> 00:30:28,690 hairs on the cheekbones or the bright keen eyes that can that can never be said. 256 00:30:28,690 --> 00:30:34,120 But the boy must have a fox and she could not see him otherwise. 257 00:30:34,120 --> 00:30:42,190 Harry proposes to march, and she accepted the fact that the other woman is wholly opposed to the march 258 00:30:42,190 --> 00:30:46,960 in one of the least realistic plot twists in the whole of science fiction. 259 00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:52,510 He kills Banford whilst cutting down a tree, the treaty on top of her, 260 00:30:52,510 --> 00:30:58,390 which leaves Marsh free to marry her fox, which she does Marsh's spiritual life. 261 00:30:58,390 --> 00:31:09,130 This is implied, saved by leaving her purely human, purely female household and relaxing an adult at this stage. 262 00:31:09,130 --> 00:31:19,060 I just want to step back a few moments to Lawrence's life and see how these attitudes to nature was shaped by its. 263 00:31:19,060 --> 00:31:22,540 He grew up in a coal mining town just outside Nottingham. 264 00:31:22,540 --> 00:31:28,390 It was small enough that the open country was a short walk for any of the houses he lived in, 265 00:31:28,390 --> 00:31:33,550 but large enough that Lawrence felt that this countryside was threatened. 266 00:31:33,550 --> 00:31:43,450 He is, in fact, one of the most ecologically minded writers of the early 20th century, and it's just one source of much current interest in his work. 267 00:31:43,450 --> 00:31:52,150 Those who knew him noticed his love of nature. A university, botany was the only subject he enjoys studying. 268 00:31:52,150 --> 00:32:05,290 One of the things which the 2008 French Lady Chatterley on the boil does right is to concentrate its lens on trees, leaves, sunlight and flowers. 269 00:32:05,290 --> 00:32:13,750 Jesse Chambers recalls in her memoir that the flowers in their seasons were exciting events. 270 00:32:13,750 --> 00:32:20,590 We used to gather armfuls that lay heavy like sheets of corn that seems no flower nor even 271 00:32:20,590 --> 00:32:28,170 weeds whose names and qualities Lawrence did not know when he was growing the teaching post. 272 00:32:28,170 --> 00:32:33,790 Quote, He told me that he was responsible for art and nature study. 273 00:32:33,790 --> 00:32:38,860 Occasionally, he asked me to sentence specimens for his nature. 274 00:32:38,860 --> 00:32:41,440 Lessons, once he asked for tweaks, 275 00:32:41,440 --> 00:32:50,590 looks hollow without giving me the most precise directions as to where the word I used to get them from when spring came, 276 00:32:50,590 --> 00:32:56,320 he wrote with delight about the glowing almonds and sent me a box of the blossom 277 00:32:56,320 --> 00:33:02,080 because we we've not seen the miracle of flowering romance in our countryside. 278 00:33:02,080 --> 00:33:07,540 House Dialyse is appendage of the flowers, which definitely brings him in hospital. 279 00:33:07,540 --> 00:33:16,280 He likes to see them grow and he does not like to see them cos he tells her, please do not bring flowers into this great even indulgence. 280 00:33:16,280 --> 00:33:21,910 I do not like them when they are the upholstery to human life. 281 00:33:21,910 --> 00:33:32,200 Use as a symbol, however, does not count. Has upholstery point reverse because rather than adorning something, it points to its essence. 282 00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:37,120 Daphne herself is repeatedly goes to a hothouse flower. 283 00:33:37,120 --> 00:33:45,580 Her hair, the complexion was so perfectly fair for us to be almost artificial, like hothouse flower. 284 00:33:45,580 --> 00:33:53,470 Whenever you encounter a New Orleans character always looking out for whether they are like to flora and fauna, both can be positive. 285 00:33:53,470 --> 00:34:01,930 Although Hothouse is a warning sign of someone in an artificial silence in need of rescue intellectual humour. 286 00:34:01,930 --> 00:34:07,570 We saw that the scene from the nineteen sixty nine when love film in which Birken expands the 287 00:34:07,570 --> 00:34:14,080 meaning of space in a script which quotes directly from Lawrence's poem Space Crucially, 288 00:34:14,080 --> 00:34:23,500 Not On Your Face explains in terms of female genitals. But women are described in terms of this in the very entrenchments, 289 00:34:23,500 --> 00:34:32,650 blue flowers on strike in terms of the settlement, which itself explains class in terms of people which rejection. 290 00:34:32,650 --> 00:34:34,120 Give me the torch. 291 00:34:34,120 --> 00:34:45,610 Let me guide myself with the blue forked torch of this flower down the door from Dahlquist says wear blue is dark and long blueness, 292 00:34:45,610 --> 00:34:54,610 even where the Stephanie goes just now from the frost frosted September to the cyclist where darkness is awake at once. 293 00:34:54,610 --> 00:34:59,060 And for Stephanie herself, this buxom voice. 294 00:34:59,060 --> 00:35:10,070 But since flowers like animals could have their own integrity of being, they can also like the snake Lawrences water drop puts humans to shame. 295 00:35:10,070 --> 00:35:17,810 Lawrence explicitly pens the shame of socialist's in the poem Hibiscus and celery of flowers. 296 00:35:17,810 --> 00:35:24,800 Lawrence objects less to what the socialists are and themselves, which he calls this, 297 00:35:24,800 --> 00:35:34,440 than to the fact that they were cylvia and sophisticates grouse who want their breasts put salvia as the basis a rosy, 298 00:35:34,440 --> 00:35:42,620 rosy, scarlet and flying great golden throated. Who said they might assume these blossoms? 299 00:35:42,620 --> 00:35:46,260 What God did they consult? Come now. 300 00:35:46,260 --> 00:35:50,690 Speaking of rights, what right have you to this flower? 301 00:35:50,690 --> 00:35:59,520 The exquisite and ageless aristocracy wants to see the carriage as the biggest hibiscus tree as equals. 302 00:35:59,520 --> 00:36:06,890 What was to say? The Loucks, along with Corzo in yellow sticks and sun suits and yellow shoes, 303 00:36:06,890 --> 00:36:16,280 are mine because I am their superior selecting the biggest flower and not that. 304 00:36:16,280 --> 00:36:24,320 And still I cannot bear it that they take the business on the salary of the Communists 305 00:36:24,320 --> 00:36:29,510 then or more to resemble the flowers which they bear gets in the social respect. 306 00:36:29,510 --> 00:36:33,920 We all resemble families and could do better to acknowledge this. 307 00:36:33,920 --> 00:36:42,350 Laurice makes this explicit in the introduction to the collection in which he compares Pansy's the first thing in nature. 308 00:36:42,350 --> 00:36:50,990 A flower still has its roots in a new ad in the perfume that holds still Frank the faint, 309 00:36:50,990 --> 00:36:57,320 strange scent of the undergrowth in all its humidity and darkness. 310 00:36:57,320 --> 00:37:04,730 So it is. We all have our roots in the earth and it is our roots that now needs a little attention. 311 00:37:04,730 --> 00:37:09,050 Najd the hard soil is away from them and softens that. 312 00:37:09,050 --> 00:37:15,080 A little fresh air can come to them and they can breathe for by pretending to have no roots. 313 00:37:15,080 --> 00:37:22,460 We have children the so called over them that they are starving and slightly below the soil. 314 00:37:22,460 --> 00:37:28,130 We have roots and our roots are in the sense of instinctive and intuitive quality. 315 00:37:28,130 --> 00:37:34,220 And it is here that we need the fresh air of open consciousness. 316 00:37:34,220 --> 00:37:40,430 The pansies are not just themselves then, but they are all thoughts about man. 317 00:37:40,430 --> 00:37:44,900 The comments all of the time makes this clear. 318 00:37:44,900 --> 00:37:54,320 This is about shipwright of his pocket is a bunch of plastic, only six houses, a handful of thoughts, or if you will, 319 00:37:54,320 --> 00:38:02,300 have the other derivation from policy to dress or soothe the wounds that he and as they all might, 320 00:38:02,300 --> 00:38:08,870 tender administrations for mental and emotional wounds we suffer from. 321 00:38:08,870 --> 00:38:17,930 In the last part of this lecture, I want to come on as promised to children like most coal miners children, he have seven siblings. 322 00:38:17,930 --> 00:38:22,470 He was born on the fourth out of five since he was almost the youngest. 323 00:38:22,470 --> 00:38:29,330 He was not obliged to look after younger ones, but he was sure to be good with children and they liked him. 324 00:38:29,330 --> 00:38:37,400 He was a highly gifted teacher as the school inspectors who observed his teaching recognised in his fiction. 325 00:38:37,400 --> 00:38:44,090 You pay special attention to children at a younger age than can be found in most other fiction. 326 00:38:44,090 --> 00:38:49,810 He does this particularly in his early metalworks sons and daughters and the writing programmes. 327 00:38:49,810 --> 00:38:54,770 Him and interestingly, his children are usually girls. 328 00:38:54,770 --> 00:39:01,700 There were seven families made entirely of daughters. It is possible that we fall out at the end of the rainbow. 329 00:39:01,700 --> 00:39:10,250 She has six sisters and one brother. The only major boy child character is Polara. 330 00:39:10,250 --> 00:39:18,230 But Panopto women involved in this, as in other aspects that comes to change John's character characters not only fade into the background, 331 00:39:18,230 --> 00:39:26,900 but the subject of children is specifically resisted. Then he tells Aaron in Paris, Robert could be hands on the hands. 332 00:39:26,900 --> 00:39:36,200 If I can see anything high and holy about Children and Daughters Minutes, Margery all nine that strike your opinion. 333 00:39:36,200 --> 00:39:40,040 We remember the principally for squabbling over a Christmas tree. 334 00:39:40,040 --> 00:39:43,850 Although this can be correlated with losses. 335 00:39:43,850 --> 00:39:50,210 New conception of masculinity in the twenties novels which separates itself from children, 336 00:39:50,210 --> 00:39:58,600 Lawrence was also reacting still against free, despite being separated from her own children in the final novels, The Child. 337 00:39:58,600 --> 00:40:08,320 Appears, but only as a symbol of rebirth, both Japanese lover and the escaped cop, and with pregnancy just before Lawrence died, 338 00:40:08,320 --> 00:40:16,120 his attitude towards children contrasts with most of the prevailing views of his own and the preceding century. 339 00:40:16,120 --> 00:40:23,050 First off, he was not with the Romantic's who saw or works with all the kids involved who conceived of 340 00:40:23,050 --> 00:40:30,970 children as possessing original innocence and being gradually corrupted by and by becoming adults. 341 00:40:30,970 --> 00:40:37,110 William was the chief instructor of Ursulines class during her first teaching job contradicts. 342 00:40:37,110 --> 00:40:42,880 So she knew when Ursula has finally beaten this child into submission, 343 00:40:42,880 --> 00:40:52,990 she saw his face beneath white with eyes like the eyes of a fish stung me, yet full of hate and horrible fear. 344 00:40:52,990 --> 00:41:00,130 He was a beast thing. No, a Catholic with a sense of the original sin of children, 345 00:41:00,130 --> 00:41:09,460 which may be alleviated by strict discipline and piety in some suburbs, has a partly Freudian understanding of the child's psyche. 346 00:41:09,460 --> 00:41:19,870 But even that he is feeling his way towards something new. The pretext is fantasy of the unconscious as his essay on child consciousness. 347 00:41:19,870 --> 00:41:29,290 And this is appropriate because it is just the touchstone for all his thought about the human psyche he locates in the child. 348 00:41:29,290 --> 00:41:36,670 The child's unconscious is black, but not innocent. Child not only must but should develop. 349 00:41:36,670 --> 00:41:41,920 Great childhood is a Christmas for which he must extricate himself. 350 00:41:41,920 --> 00:41:49,000 And the struggling youth from age cannot emerge Panopto by the energy of all its powers. 351 00:41:49,000 --> 00:41:54,220 Health insurance entails balanced development in the four primary areas. 352 00:41:54,220 --> 00:42:05,690 So we're back again with this virtuous of physiology the solar plexus, the long background, the cardiac Texas and the thoracic. 353 00:42:05,690 --> 00:42:10,300 As far as this legislation is concerned, he considers exercise with the arts, 354 00:42:10,300 --> 00:42:17,500 without the elements of the game to be mechanical and as bad as most of the sports masturbation. 355 00:42:17,500 --> 00:42:24,790 One of the few comments that Lawrence made on the subject of masturbation, positive or negative, that they are always negative. 356 00:42:24,790 --> 00:42:33,460 Crucially, he believes that a certain roughness with children is necessary to make them independent and proud from bitter experience. 357 00:42:33,460 --> 00:42:42,400 He argues that mother can spoil their children by cleaving to them as children who cling to their mothers should be smacked. 358 00:42:42,400 --> 00:42:49,450 Tom and plenty of Brangwyn in the Rainbow implicitly follow most of these precepts. 359 00:42:49,450 --> 00:42:55,930 They do not educate and they do not cling to power or allow her to cling to that. 360 00:42:55,930 --> 00:43:00,190 She is the beneficiary of that successful marriage. 361 00:43:00,190 --> 00:43:11,800 She also has an independent existence to which to now to place to place capital and close attention after her step stepbrother, Tom Adams, quote, 362 00:43:11,800 --> 00:43:14,200 became more childish, 363 00:43:14,200 --> 00:43:25,660 not so abnormal and charged with because she could not understand the charge of the mother is satisfied of the mother has to elsewhere. 364 00:43:25,660 --> 00:43:36,420 She became an independent Forgacs, being so loving from her own centre run by her stepfather, teaches her city tales which of comic relief, 365 00:43:36,420 --> 00:43:44,080 quite after the poignant folktales she got from her mother, which always troubled and mystified as so. 366 00:43:44,080 --> 00:43:51,370 She's cleaning and dwelling on her because I think she is one of the best representations of children in science fiction. 367 00:43:51,370 --> 00:44:00,610 She likes the neighbours to acknowledge and quote how a touch me, not way lighting the inane enquiries of grown up people. 368 00:44:00,610 --> 00:44:08,570 We see this extraordinarily realistic five year olds growing into adulthood and we see it the child, the mother to the woman. 369 00:44:08,570 --> 00:44:12,070 But better access to her soul is limited. 370 00:44:12,070 --> 00:44:20,140 She tends to be described from the outside in terms of her behaviour as signalled by the woolly blonde hair and dark eyes, 371 00:44:20,140 --> 00:44:27,170 which you mentioned almost every time that she is, there is a difference in the representation of her daughter. 372 00:44:27,170 --> 00:44:33,700 Thus her soul is more transparent. It it's described directly. 373 00:44:33,700 --> 00:44:39,070 These descriptions correlate with the greater extent to which this soul is troubled and will 374 00:44:39,070 --> 00:44:46,480 go through far greater pain before I can reach satisfaction in delicate balance with Birkins. 375 00:44:46,480 --> 00:44:52,790 Women in Los Winifred's, who is 13 or 14, is a more troubling child. 376 00:44:52,790 --> 00:44:59,260 Certainly she is a growing tech. That's why your novel is for attention based, not more than any other place. 377 00:44:59,260 --> 00:45:03,010 No attention to those who are not practise Burketown Intelsat. 378 00:45:03,010 --> 00:45:07,360 Robert shows that Winnifred has got a special nature. 379 00:45:07,360 --> 00:45:15,490 And if you could put her into the what means of being self-sufficient, that is the best thing possible so that it gets on with your ordinary life. 380 00:45:15,490 --> 00:45:20,860 You find it difficult enough for yourself. And she is seven instead of a mule. 381 00:45:20,860 --> 00:45:27,610 But in the novel she's associated with Goodrum, not Ursula, and this does not bode well. 382 00:45:27,610 --> 00:45:35,440 She's not just modern in a sense in which the ground sisters are as their 19th century parents are not. 383 00:45:35,440 --> 00:45:44,830 She is a fantastic postmodern, actually unstable, detached as I write, the narrator tells us she was an old, 384 00:45:44,830 --> 00:45:51,400 sensitive, inflammable child, having her father's quiet bearing that being quite detached. 385 00:45:51,400 --> 00:45:59,470 Montaigne is she was like a changeling indeed, as if her feelings did not matter to her, really. 386 00:45:59,470 --> 00:46:07,000 She was full of the warmest, most delightful affection for a few things, but her animals in particular. 387 00:46:07,000 --> 00:46:12,340 But if she hurt have lot of kids, Leo could be run over by the motorcar. 388 00:46:12,340 --> 00:46:19,210 She puts her head on one side and replied with a thank contraption like presentments on her face. 389 00:46:19,210 --> 00:46:24,680 I see that she took no notice. 390 00:46:24,680 --> 00:46:29,570 She loves people who would make life the game for her when if they did not 391 00:46:29,570 --> 00:46:36,290 notice human beings unless they were by herself playful and slightly mocking, 392 00:46:36,290 --> 00:46:41,870 she would accept nothing but a world of amusement and the serious people of her life with the animals 393 00:46:41,870 --> 00:46:51,200 she had with pets on these she loved lavished almost ironic with her affection and her companionship. 394 00:46:51,200 --> 00:47:00,030 When she responds to Grugeon suggestion that they paint the aforementioned Robert Bismark, she says, Oh yes, I will rest awfully to do this. 395 00:47:00,030 --> 00:47:11,210 Not so Splendens at this morning. So because he is almost as big as a lion and the child chuckled, I don't think that's hyperbole. 396 00:47:11,210 --> 00:47:18,530 What is most disturbing about this representation is that she remembers that it was in fact, not so much as look, 397 00:47:18,530 --> 00:47:29,180 the cat is in his turn, is described as an odd creature, like a child and intellectual, quite detached control. 398 00:47:29,180 --> 00:47:36,830 He's a child. As one of the points are illuminating stuff about children in Lawrence, 399 00:47:36,830 --> 00:47:45,650 he is the end point of Lawrence's exploration of the modern spirits, spiritual childhood and its perversion. 400 00:47:45,650 --> 00:47:55,730 Even animals can be corrupted within modernity. The only drawing which we witness Winnifred produce is of her pet, his niece Lily, 401 00:47:55,730 --> 00:48:04,970 when she shows up to go to and it turns out to be a grotesque little diagram of the grotesque little animal so wicked and so comical. 402 00:48:04,970 --> 00:48:15,170 A slow smile came over his face unconsciously. And that's what a of chuckle quickly and said he doesn't like to visit. 403 00:48:15,170 --> 00:48:21,140 He's much larger than that. He's so beautiful, my sweet darling. 404 00:48:21,140 --> 00:48:26,270 As she flew off to embrace the shock around his little dog, he looked up at her with reproachful, 405 00:48:26,270 --> 00:48:31,670 saturnine eyes back, which is extreme anxiousness of being. 406 00:48:31,670 --> 00:48:35,930 Then she flew back to the drawing board with satisfaction. 407 00:48:35,930 --> 00:48:43,670 He's extremely aged because these are the Chinese breed and therefore of an ancient race within modernity. 408 00:48:43,670 --> 00:48:49,550 He is klaxons into caricature. He is a lap dog right into a human race. 409 00:48:49,550 --> 00:48:58,460 Hardly real at all. The equivalence amongst beasts of a hothouse flower and city therefore has no remedy against his character. 410 00:48:58,460 --> 00:49:03,170 To most of in class, however, are not like this. 411 00:49:03,170 --> 00:49:11,870 Even in an age in which childhood is represented by Winifred's most flora and fauna retains its human integrity, 412 00:49:11,870 --> 00:49:21,740 its capacity to dilute humanity by its essence, to enrich writers spiritual vocabulary, both symbols and strong new civilisation. 413 00:49:21,740 --> 00:49:32,330 By its example, Lawrence's criticisms of humanity and his interest in non-human life are connected but are not locked in mutual support. 414 00:49:32,330 --> 00:49:42,290 Humans, at their best, are far better than Massaponax or stallion's tomcats for mathematics at their best. 415 00:49:42,290 --> 00:49:50,451 But they are at their best when they recognise what they have in common.
