First published in 1982, D. H. Lawrence and Feminism discusses Lawrence’s work by examining it in relation to aspects of women’s history and the development of feminism. Two different modes of pre-war feminism which provide important themes in Lawrence’s early writings are examined in the opening chapters. The central chapters deal with the war, both as a catalyst for major changes in the position of women and as a point of no return in the development of Lawrence’s work. A final chapter looks at the way in which Lawrence used women as collaborator, and their writing as source material. This book will be of interest to students of literature, women’s studies and history.
Hilary Simpson currently chairs the campaign for Women against State Pension Injustice (WASPI). Since the publication of D.H. Lawrence and Feminism in 1982, she has campaigned on a number of feminist causes including women and employment and the needs of working parents.
