David Herbert Lawrence
Born on the eleventh day of September in 1885, David Herbert Lawrence was the fourth child of an illiterate coal miner. Lawrence was raised in a small mining town of Eastwood, Nottingham by his mother who happened to be a school a teacher. Threw his childhood David Herbert shared a very close relationship with his mother.
Lawrence first started his education in a grammar school, which he had won a scholarship to, and later attended Nottingham University College. When he finished college, Lawrence decided to move to Croydin, just south of London to began his teaching career. While teaching in Croydin he encountered a guy by the name of Ford Madone (Ford’s English Review) which was a good connection for his writing career.
In 1912 feeling that he could support himself with his writing, Lawrence left teaching. A couple a months later his mother died and he found out that he was suffering from an illness known as tuberculosis something he would spend the rest of his life with. Also during this year he eloped with Frieda Von Richthofen the daughter of his college professor. Their first years were chronicled in poems called Look. His elopement was the first of Lawrence’s many flights from ill health and social censure. The next step in his life involved him traveling to Venice to a sanitarium in attempt to relief himself of tuberculosis, which turned out to be a big failure.
One of the first novels Lawrence wrote was The White Peacock, which would be elaborated upon later works. Lawrence was not only a novelist, he also wrote short stories, plays, poems and travel journalism. Lawrence was a very active short story writer. Two of his first short stories were “Persian Officers” and “The Odours of Chrysanthemums.” His short stories were superior to his novels. In 1922 he completed a collection of stories before he decided to travel to America. In a lot of his work he displays nature through birds, beast and flowers. Though Lawrence’s short stories are different from his novels, they displayed his style and structure. Lawrence is also an emotional writer, which might be considered undisciplined to some. In 1928 Lawrence wrote an interesting novel called Lady Chaterley’s Lover which was privately printed.

Knowles, was the vice president and purchasing agent of a coal company earned him a comfortable living. His mother, Mary Beatrice Shea Knowles, taught him how to read and write and instilled in him a love for learning. His parents decided he needed to go to a better than Oyster Bay High school, so at the age of fifteen, he left home for Phillips Exeter Academy.

He decides to give his son two hundred thousand dollars, then checks into a hotel. Following this event, he purchases more flowers, which are most likely for his wife once again. I think that his wife kicked him out after finding out that he was cheating on her. He felt guilty, so he ordered her some flowers. Shortly after Valentine’s day, Lawrence Jr finds himself in a candy shop, where he purchases some sweets. While there, he fell in love, and ended up getting married around May 1930. In August of 1929, Lawrence begins to use his money unwisely; constantly spending and loaning money to friends. Additionally, he and his wife are not doing so well, and actually end up getting divorced. There is very much money involved, and included quite a few lawyers. After the divorce, Lawrence is seen giving more money to the same man as before, Tony Spegoni, and eventually a man named Peter. It is noted that his handwriting becomes increasingly shaky, as if he is nervous. This is the last check written by Lawrence Exeter Jr. I believe that he was killed by Tony and Peter after not giving them what they

Many authors are recognized by a reoccurring theme found throughout their works. The author D.H. Lawrence can be classified into this group. He is well known for his reoccurring theme that romantic love is psychologically redeeming. He wrote “The Horse Dealer’s Daughter” , a short story that exemplifies this theme quite accurately, in 1922 (Sagar 12). Through excellent use of symbolism in “The Horse Dealer’s Daughter”, Lawrence renders his theme of romantic love being psychologically redeeming through the emotional development of the two main characters, Mabel and Dr. Fergusson.
