ABSTRACT

It is now some 80 years since D. H. Lawrence, accompanied by his friend the artist Earl Brewster, set off in April of 1927 to visit the Etruscan sites. In his inevitable fashion, Lawrence details his travels and his descent into the lost world of the Etruscans, whilst all the while interjecting his observations with personal interpretations of the images and artifacts he nds, helped by a liberal dose of artistic license.
