摘要：Concerning D. H. Lawrence and his most controversial work Lady Chatterley ’ s Lover , there are in existence various theories. This paper first makes an introduction of D. H. Lawrence and his work Lady Chatterley ’ s lover , and then tries to scrutinize the author and the work in terms of traditional criticism and psychological criticism. The internal facts (“inside”) and external facts (“outside”) of the author and the characters in the work are elaborated, mainly through traditional approach and psychological approach, hence the conclusion is that Lawrence’s works were deeply interweaved with his complex and full-of-controversy life and that readers ought to attach more importance to the author’s life as well as his work.
