Etruscan Places

Viac o knihe

The collection presents D. H. Lawrence's travel writings that juxtapose the vibrant, life-affirming culture of the ancient Etruscans with the bleakness of Mussolini's Italy in the late 1920s. Written after his journey through Tuscany with friend Earl Brewster in 1927, these essays reflect on the beauty of the landscape and the contrasting societal conditions of the time. Lawrence's observations provide a unique insight into both the historical richness of the Etruscans and the contemporary political climate.
