St. Mawr a través de sus imágenes

Abstract

This paper, conceived as a re-reading of one of Lawrence's 'minor' works, discusses some of the current evaluations ofSt. Mawr, and takes F.R. Leavis's favourable judgement as a starting point in order to expand the analysis through a closer examination of the structure of the novella. Images and symbols, particularly those connected with animals, show that Lawrence's work is a highly patterned product, in which cohesion is attained through the use of two basic types of images that guide and control the development of the whole narrative.
