本论文主要通过《马贩子的女儿》、《第二好》、《菊馨》和《玫瑰花园中的阴影》这四部劳伦斯的短篇小说中蕴含的丰富的意象来略论其文章中不同女性对待婚姻爱情的态度,总结出劳伦斯短篇小说中女性的两种婚姻爱情模式——爱情的出现以及爱情在婚姻生活中的消褪,并且从作者的个人经历和社会背景等方面略论了劳伦斯短篇小说中的女性形成这两种婚姻爱情模式的社会成因,为更加深入理解劳伦斯的著作的社会意义提供了有益的思路。

ABSTRACT
D. H. Lawrence was a very important and controversial English writer of the 20th century. His works embody his extraordinary ability to convey a sense of humanity, and reveal the suppression of human nature in industrialization. Lawrence believed that a pure, natural and harmonious sexual relationship and the integration of spirit and clay between man and woman is a key to undistorted perception of reality and a way to respond to the inhumanity of the industrial culture.
In D. H. Lawrence’s short stories, imagery is widely used. Imagery originates from poetries to express the emotion of poets. Later, it is also widely used in novels to construct the development of the stories. In novels and short stories, imagery can be used as an important tool to suggest the change of the inner-world and to form the characteristic of the characters.
This paper is conducted to analyze the females’ attitudes towards love and marriage through abundant images in short stories of D. H. Lawrence and comes to two patterns of females’ attitudes towards love and marriage — emergence of love and fading of love in marriage. Additionally, with further effort to analyze the possible reasons in respect of the formation of females’ attitudes towards love and marriage, this paper provides a new angle to study works of Lawrence.
Key words: Lawrence, short stories, imagery, females’ attitudes towards love and marriage
