INTRODUCTION
In this paper, I won't stick to only one topic. I will compare different
topics, such as happiness and life between two romantic writers, D. H. Lawrence
and Friedrich Nietzsche from D. H. Lawrence's You touched me and Friedrich
Nietzche's The use and abuse of history taken from The twilight of the Idols. I
will start talking about life and happiness by giving my own little definition
of each of these two terms.
LIFE
Life: one word, many meanings. Life: one word, one precious thing.
We see life in a total different way by the two writers. Life, in D. H.
Lawrence's You touched me, is one, short and precious thing. We see life through
the eyes of a dying father and his two daughters, who loves their father a lot
and an adopted son enrolled in the army. The father continuously fights his
disease, battling to stay alive. We see life as a fragile, vulnerable thing. It
can also vanish unexpectedly. What I mean by "life can also vanish unexpectedly"
is that you never know when something terrible could happen to you and see it
taken away.
Friedrich Nietzshe explains us a lot more his perception of life.
Unfortunately, I didn't understand most of the things he meant, but I will
explain what I think I understood. Nietzshe describes life with the help of a
man and a beast. The beast always forgets what he wants to say and what he said.
This behaviour is also called forgetfulness. He (Nietzshe) claims that [life in
any true sense is absolutely impossible without forgetfulness]. He also says
something about death. [And when death brings at last the desired forgetfulness,
it abolishes life and being together, and sets the seal on the knowledge that
"being" is merely a continual "has been", a thing that lives by denying and
destroying and contradicting itself]. He also mentions a universal law about
living things. [A living thing can only be healthy, strong and productive within
a certain horizon: if it be incapable of drawing one round itself, or too
selfish to lose its own view in another's, it will come to an untimely end.]
HAPPINESS
Happiness: everybody's ultimate goal. Unfortunately, happiness is very
hard goal to reach.
D. H. Lawrence demonstrate the failure of reaching happiness through
money and other goods. Emmie and Matilda were two girls of a rich man. But these
two girls were not quite happy. They couldn't get married because they were
expecting too much of men. Their (Matilda and Emmie) minds weThis is ONLY a preview of the article. If you would like to view the entire document, you must subscribe to Academic Library. Please register below now!
