Foreign Bodies: The Problem of the Other in The Plumed Serpent
( Hiroko Mizuta ) 한국로렌스학회 2015 D.H. 로렌스 연구 Vol.23 No.2
This paper aims at reinterpreting The Plumed Serpent, which has been criticized from a moralistic point of view because of its elements of an apparently fascist aesthetics, by putting it in a new ethical context, where the problem of the response to otherness is foregrounded. For this purpose, Alphonso Lingis`s concept of “foreign bodies”-the bodies of those who have nothing in common-is employed. This concept provides a way to see Lawrence`s communal vision as a realistic one of a shared existence with the other, not as unrealistic fantasizing. In other words, the social and ethical aspects of Lawrence`s religious conviction are examined through a consideration of “the other`s body.” Furthermore, through the descriptions of the protagonist`s ambivalent attitude towards the new collective vision presented by Ramon and Cipriano, we can see that Lawrence addresses the problem of the “imperative of others,” who force us to respond. Mexico, its people, the religious leaders, Ramon and Cipriano, all of them are “foreign bodies” for the Westerner Kate. They show her a new mode of thought which is unthinkable for her and force her to respond to their assertion of otherness. At times, this repulses and confuses her. Her ambivalent attitude toward them demonstrates the difficulty of the reconciliation of the two extreme opposites, but at the same time it also suggests the possibility for accepting otherness as a questioning of the foundation of the Western way of thinking. Recognizing otherness as that which demands us to respond is the starting point of the real fusion or new collectivity that Lawrence sought. In this sense, this novel implies a ceaseless struggle for the union with otherness through the descriptions of the protagonist`s ambivalent responses.
