2.1. Singularity of d. Lawrence texts analysis

Lawrence David Herbert was born on September 11, 1885 in the settlement Eastwood (the county Nottingempshir). David Herbert Lawrence was the fourth child in family of the miner and former school teacher. Its rough relationship with the father, inclined to violence, and passionate attachment to distinguished, socially ambitious mother in has much influenced its subsequent work. In 1898 David Herbert Lawrence has got grant in the Nottingham Higher School, and in 1906 - pedagogical education at Nottingham university. Taught at elementary school of Croydon and has started writing verses and stories.

In July, 1914 David Herbert Lawrence married Frida von Richtchofen. Disappointed in England and unwillingness to accept his creativity, Herbert Lawrence in 1919 together with Frida has forever left the homeland. Poor health of David Herbert Lawrence has sharply reeled in 1930, and in May of the same year he has died of tuberculosis in the city of Vens in France [1]

David Herbert Lawrence remains to one of darlings and readable authors in the homeland, in England and, perhaps, and in all Europe. The most important part of its extensive heritage is made by novels. The best of them - "Sons and lovers", "Rainbow", "Women in love", "Lady Chatterli's lover" - became classics of English-speaking literature of the XX century.

Our task is to reproduce semantization of the story of David Herbert Lawrence "White stocking" which is devoted to global subject of all times and the people - love subject. The love subject long since involved writers and poets. And, therefore, in works of many writers it is possible to track the thin line of the above-named subject.

If to look at the name of the story, that, it is possible to understand that the outcome or plot of the story will be under construction on this subject, that is white stocking. Really, in the middle of the novel we learn why the gift has been sent not in simple box, namely, in white stocking. This subject became the contention reason in family Viston.

So, the main characters of the story are Elsie and Tad Viston. "But still, when she had gone out of the room, he felt as if all his light and warmth were taken away …" (1, c.54) We understand that this quote the author wants to show that in spite of the fact that heroes are married two years, their feelings have not died away and still remain gentle and warm.

One morning, when heroes have already woken up, at door someone has called, and Elsie has run to open. The mail carrier was on the threshold and has stretched to the girl parcel. In it there was card on St. Valentine's Day. Also, the girl has got white stocking in which she has found box with pearl ear rings from box. "She stood still to look at herself, bridling her head in the dignified fashion. Then she simpered at herself. Catching her own eye, she could not help winking at herself and laughing (1, c.56). According to this quote we can see that the gift to the girl very much is pleasant, and, to leave and furthermore ornament is not going to remove from itself.

Tad who has entered the room has taken an interest that Elsie held in hand, and from whom this gift. The young man very much was surprised when his wife has answered that has no idea who is sender. "Theyve not rights to send you valentines now" - he said (1, c.58). The author has shown it the owner though at first the story, the reader and does not guess it. In my opinion, Tad should not have spoken so to the wife because the girl is not guilty at all that have sent it gift. At breakfast Elsie has assumed that Sam Adams whom she saw recently could send gift to her. Tad has started accusing her that it met this person.

When Tad has left for work, the girl with quiet soul could wear earrings, her soul how many will want. Life with the husband was for it ordinary and routine, and therefore, she was confused at all by quarrel with Tad. "She did not think about her husband" (1, c.64). On the following lines it is possible to understand that life was monotonous and boring and, in my opinion, rather has bothered the girl. "He was the permanent basis from which she took these giddy little flights into nowhere. At night, like chickens and curses, she would come home to him, to roost" (1, c.64).

Till marriage with Tad, Elsie worked at warehouse at Sam Adams. The man differed in love to girls that has not avoided also Elsie. Adams in every way tried to be pleasant to the young and beautiful girl. "He would come into the warehouse dressed in rather sporting reefer coat, of fawn color, and trousers of fine black-and-white check, cap with a big peak and a scarlet carnation in his button-hole, to impress her" (1, c.65).

But Viston already at that time looked after her.

Sam Adams brought together every Christmas friends for holiday. Viston and Elsie have been invited including. At entrance, Adams registered cards of each guest on dances. Elsie and Tad first did not want this registration, but Sam has insisted on it.

Danced the first dance of Elsie with Viston. Reading, we understand that process of dance very much was pleasant to the girl. "He seemed to draw her close in to him by some male warmth of attraction, so that she became all soft and pliant to him, flowing to his form, whilst he united her with him and they lapsed along in one movement (1, c.68). It seemed that Tad puts all the love to the girl, during this dance.

When the turn to dance with Adams has come, on the one hand, Elsie liked to dance, and with another, the girl looked for any pretext to escape from the hall and to find Viston. "When she got a chance, she escaped from the dancing-room to the card-room" (1, c.70).

Soon, Adams has found it in this room and has again invited to dance. The girl has unwillingly agreed. But, in beat dance, Elsie liked being pleasant as Adams dances. More precisely, she admired the movements of this person. And, appear, has been completely satisfied with dance. "But she herself was held real against her partner, and it seemed she was connected with him, as if the movements of his body and limbs were her own movements, yet not her own movements - and oh, delicious! (1, c.72).

But Tad and Elsie had suited time to leave. The girl not absolutely wanted to leave this house, appear, that she has got confused between Tad and Adams. "And she, distracted, lost to herself between the opposing forces of the two men, drifted" (1, c.77).

At farewell dance with Adams, Elsie has dropped white handkerchief, but, to her surprise, it was not the scarf, but white stocking. Adams has lifted it, has put to himself in pocket. Tad, having learned that Sam of visors of stockings at Elsie has very much become angry, and, even wanted to go to talk to Adams, but Elsie has dissuaded him from this invention.

In some weeks they with Viston have got married.

And now we will return to that moment when we said that Viston, having quarreled with Elsie has left for work.

Having come in the evening home, the man has taken an interest that the wife with the white stocking received as a gift has made him. Then has told that it has burned it on fire. Having been refused, Viston has started over again to swear at Elsie and has hit her. But, has soon understood the mistake, has understood that you should not have used force so. Several minutes later Ted has learned that it is the second gift from Adams. The amethystine brooch was the first gift last year. Having forced the wife to lower gifts, it has packed them into box and has sent back to Adams. Having come back home, he has found out that Elsie still cried. Having understood the mistake, he has approached the wife and has gently embraced her. "My love - my little love - he cried, in anguish of spirit, holding her in his arms (1, c.93).

Having read the story, we understand that the author wants to show the family attitudes which happen difficult. Without having finished the old relations, you should not begin the new. Tad Vinson has understood it intuitively to keep the marriage, he has sent gifts which Adams has sent it to the wife. Showdowns were rough, but Elsie has understood that the husband loves her and has obeyed to its decision. The reader understands that it is better to leave the endured hobby in the past, and it is necessary to live in the present.
