『아들과 연인』에 나타난 갈등의 문제 -형이상학과 인식론을 중심으로-

Abstract

This thesis scrutinizes the problematic consciousness in Lawrence's Sons and Lovers. There are relationships with characters providing critical thinking that helps us understand text has something absent and silent. It is important to be acquainted with the fact that we are thinking with sense and reason. Because human beings have knowledge on the basis of the events and things we can make an experiment to know the way we are living in a possible world and explore the insight of the actual world to represent the real things. In this thesis the main character Paul Morel has the law of causality with three women showing us the deficiency of affection, the conflicts with his parents, and self-schizophrenic disorder with his lovers. In order to understand Paul we should know that modernism is based on the life of human that is independent from the judgement and justice of literary imagination and philosophical thinking. Modernism seems to seek how to live moderately in an ambivalent and ambiguous place apart from the actual world only to find it is an unreal place left for human beings as an evidence of rudimental, analogous and vestigial memory and appearance we could describe in a past but still existing thing. And it is the metaphysics we understand the interpretation of event with speculatively critical thinking and the existence of human being with the hypothesis or postulate that makes a solution to the requirements to be satisfactory in literary and philosophical production.
