Subject: D.H. Lawrence Question
Dear Members,
Marta has asked me to forward this question to the list.
Betty
Does any one know from where this article by D.H.Lawrence comes:
"Thomas Hardy, Verga and Tolstoy"?
It is not included in The Works of D.H.Lawrence, it must be a journal or a
collection of essays but I can not trace it.
Thank you for your help,
Marta Rabikowska

Are you sure that this is actually an essay title? Lawrence discusses these
three in Chapter 9 of Studies in Classic American Literature.

Actually, I am not sure, I have got the text without a title. I would be happy to find out if it is the same article, could you please send me a full address of the American Studies and I will try to find it here (UK).
Thank you very much,
Marta

Dear Marta,
You should be able to find a copy of Lawrence's _Studies in Classic American Literature_ in most college/university libraries. It is also available as a Penguin paperback. But I've just done a quick check on Google,
and it seems to be on-line at http://xroads.virginia.edu/~HYPER/LAWRENCE/dhltoc.htm.
All the best,
Keith

Subject: Hardy Leicester
Dear Sirs,
Some time ago I saw an article referring to Thomas Hardy which contained
his signature. It was very striking that my father's signature was almost
the same, but I have always thought, as the names were similar the likeness
was coincidental.
On Sunday, we had the Antiques Roadshow on the TV, and my attention was
roused when I saw father's handwriting on the screen. A lady had some
writing, which I took to be Hardy's, this was so much like my father's the
similarity was uncanny.
I have always thought that old photographs of Thomas Hardy showed some
'family likeness', but never really thought any more of it.
If the handwriting I saw on Sunday was that of Hardy's, I am beginning to
wonder if there was a family connection in the past.
My father was born in Leicester in 1906, and died in 1992 and there are no
other relatives with whom to discuss the family past.
Do you know if there is any association with the Midlands in Hardy' family
history?- anything you have would be of much interest.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Yours sincerely
