The phoenix paradox: a study of renewal through change in the Collected poems and Last poems of D.H. Lawrence: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "The phoenix paradox: a study of renewal through change in the Collected poems and Last poems of D.H. Lawrence" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

This book traces D. H. Lawrences development as a poet from his earliest to his latest poems. Focusing on the revision of poems in the Collected Poems, 1928, Mandell uncovers the implicit autobiographical narrative that underlies the collection and that dictates its structure. Lawrence rearranged and rewrote the poems to conform to a chronologic, thematic, and mythic plan, a plan he hints at in the unpublished Foreword to Collected Poems. In its final form, the poetry tells the story of Lawrences demon, a figure of his essential self, by recounting the chronological development of the new from the old self. Comparing form and content of versions of representative poems from the collection, Mandell analyzes the evaluation not only of Lawrences poetic style but also of his ideas concerning human and physical nature. She contends that Lawrence was a mature poet with a developed system of poetic and philosophical thought by 1917, when he published Look! We Have Come Through! At that time he rewrote extensively. Through comparison of selected poems, several of which appear in print for the first time, we can reproduce Lawrences emendations and thus depict the creative mind at work.
