摘要
《儿子与情人》被认为是D.H.劳伦斯的成名佳作，英语论文网站，甚至被一些学者视为是他一生唯一一部重要的小说。一些评论家认为《儿子与情人》生动完整的体现了弗洛伊德的俄狄浦斯情结。但是在当时劳伦斯承认对弗洛伊德的著作并不了解，英语毕业论文，而且在他的《精神略论与潜意识》中提出来与弗洛伊德背道而驰的看法。本文第一部分简要的介绍了作者劳伦斯，著作《儿子与情人》和俄狄浦斯情结。第二部分通过三个角度略论和证明了《儿子与情人》不是俄狄浦斯情结的继承。最后笔者想要强调的是劳伦斯想要表达的是工业文明对人性的抑制并且探究一种两性和谐的男女联系。所以说应用俄狄浦斯情结来略论这部小说是站不住脚的。

Abstract
Sons and Lovers is regarded as D.H. Lawrence’s masterpiece and it is even considered the only major novel by some scholars. Some critics believe Sons and Lovers is vividly and completely illustrated Freud’s Oedipus Complex. But at that time Lawrence, by his own admission, did not acknowledge Freud’s writings and in Psychoanalysis and the Unconscious pointed out different view. The first part of this paper is a quick overview of Lawrence, Sons and lovers and Oedipus Complex. The second part of this paper mainly analyses and proves that Sons and lovers does not succeed to Oedipus Complex from three facets. Ultimately the author wants to stress that what Lawrence advocated was that industrial civilization stifled human nature and to explore the harmonious relationship between sexes. Therefore, Utilizing Oedipus Complex to analyze the novel is untenable.
Key words: Oedipus Complex; Freud; Sons and lovers; Lawrence

Besides being a great novelist, Lawrence was also a proficient poet, a combative essayist, an atmospheric travel-writer, and a prolific literary correspondent. Furthermore, he extended his talents to book-reviewing, translation, photographic discourse and painting. “During his lifetime and even afterwards Lawrence was a controversial figure because of his frank treatment of sex and his outspoken insistence upon a need for a readjustment in the relationship between the sexes. His most controversial novel was Lady Chatterley’s Lover, the best probably The Rainbow.” [1] Sons and Lovers perhaps his most popular novel, regarded as a pioneering achievement in English fiction.
