English Summary/英文概要: Paul Morel, the young protagonist, battles with two loves – his mother, and his lover. The novel can be seen to shed insight on Lawrence’s personal life as Paul struggles to understand his relationship with his family.

Chinese Summary/中文概要: 通常人们把《儿子与情人》看做是一部带有自传性质的长篇小说,因为故事内容取材于劳伦斯的早年生活。本书贯穿了劳伦斯三点主要思想:一是哀叹和抗议由于工业发展造成自然环境的污染;二是对社会地位的强列自卑感,决心挣脱所属阶级的枷锁;三是因不能正确对待婚姻与性生活的矛盾而感到苦闷。 本书为劳伦斯以其童年及青少年时代生活为蓝本而写成的一部成名作。小说中的莫瑞尔是一名矿工,莫瑞尔夫人出身中产阶级。两人生活理念截然不同,丈夫生活浑浑噩噩,妻子深感理想幻灭,失望之余,寄希望于长子,然而长子早逝,她又移情与次子保罗。她的这种爱已成变态,视儿子专为己有,和儿子恋人争夺对保罗的精神控制,并占了上风。保罗只能与一个少妇结交,取得肉体的满足。最后,莫瑞尔夫人得病而逝,保罗与恋人也不能重修旧好,孑然一身,漂泊海外。(YM)

About the Author/作者介绍: David Herbert Richards Lawrence (11 September 1885 – 2 March 1930) was an English author, poet, playwright, essayist and literary critic. His collected works represent an extended reflection upon the dehumanising effects of modernity and industrialisation. In them, Lawrence confronts issues relating to emotional health and vitality, spontaneity, human sexuality and instinct. Lawrence’s opinions earned him many enemies and he endured official persecution, censorship, and misrepresentation of his creative work throughout the second half of his life, much of which he spent in a voluntary exile he called his "savage pilgrimage."[1] At the time of his death, his public reputation was that of a pornographer who had wasted his considerable talents. E. M. Forster, in an obituary notice, challenged this widely held view, describing him as, "The greatest imaginative novelist of our generation."
Later, the influential Cambridge critic F. R. Leavis championed both his artistic integrity and his moral seriousness, placing much of Lawrence’s fiction within the canonical "great tradition" of the English novel. Lawrence is now generally valued as a visionary thinker and significant representative of modernism in English literature, although some feminists object to the attitudes toward women and sexuality found in his works.
