Produktinformationen zu „Touch and Go (ePub)“
D. H. Lawrence's 'Touch and Go' is a compelling three-act play that delves profoundly into the socioeconomic tensions of early 20th-century Britain. Its narrative traverses the contentious terrain occupied by labor and capital, drawing on the Shakespearian motif of a debt demanding flesh rather than coin. The work's urgent dialogue and vivid character portrayals are quintessential Lawrence, rife with the naturalistic style and psychological depth that pervade his oeuvre. Set against the backdrop of the English working class' rising demand for recognition and recompense, the play articulates a crucial period in industrial relations and the ongoing dialogue surrounding social equity and economic morality.
In exploring the topic of labor versus capital, Lawrence taps into the essence of his own experiences and the socio-political milieu that influenced much of his writing. A miner's son from Nottinghamshire, Lawrence was no stranger to the class struggle inherent within the industrial heartlands of England. His acute observations of human relationships and societal structures, combined with an innately provocative literary voice, allowed him to scrutinize and dramatize the real-life quandaries faced by communities grappling with progress and tradition. 'Touch and Go' emerges both as a product of its time and a personal testament to Lawrence's contemplation of human strife.
Lawrence aficionados and newcomers alike will find 'Touch and Go' to be a gripping and intellectually stimulating read. The play is recommended for those who seek not only a literary adventure but also a reflective mirror held up to the conflicts and compromises inherent within the world of commerce and labor. Those invested in the study of early 20th-century literature, labor relations, or human psychology will particularly appreciate the nuanced exploration of these enduring themes within the pages of this thought-provoking dramatic work.

Autoren-Porträt von D. H. Lawrence
David Herbert Lawrence, widely known as D. H. Lawrence, was a profoundly influential English writer, poet, playwriter, essayist, and literary critic. His birth on September 11, 1885, in Eastwood, Nottinghamshire, laid the foundation for a career marked by its exploration of the human condition, particularly concerning themes of intimacy, sexuality, and instinct. Lawrence showed a disdain for industrialization, often critiquing its impact on the human spirit, and his works passionately articulated the complexities of personal relationships and the pursuit of self-fulfilment. In 'Touch and Go' (1920), Lawrence delves into the tumult of labor unrest, infusing his narrative with a deep understanding of the socio-political tensions of post-World War I Britain. His most notorious novel, 'Lady Chatterley's Lover' (1928), was embroiled in obscenity trials for its explicit descriptions of sex, a bold defiance of the puritanical norms of his day. Despite the controversy, Lawrence's work is esteemed for its intense emotional truth and pioneering use of psychological character development. His legacy endures in the modern literary canon, with a vast oeuvre that reflects a unique fusion of profound philosophical insights and rich poetic language. Lawrence passed away in France on March 2, 1930, but left behind a body of work that continues to provoke and inspire.
