The only universal language that survived through time and still exists to this day is love and through love comes passion. From traditions to society, love and passion are the two major elements that are found in most of the English literature. Most of the English authors have a tendency to illustrate both sides of love and passion, which are the happiness and troubles that love and passion can cause together. David Herbert Lawrence, in his novel, Lady Chatterley’s Lover emphasized a sexual relationship, which expressed love and passion as the only salvation for a mechanized society. First, the novel Lady Chatterley’s Lover is filled with the examples of sexual relationship. Sexual relationship is a relationship involving sexual intimacy. The sexual relationship is shown in this novel when David Herbert Lawrence wrote, “Connie begins an affair with Michaelis which, while not fully satisfying sexually—Connie gets sexual satisfaction from him, but only on her own initiative, after he has arrived at orgasm—temporarily rouses her from her doldrums.” (Lawrence pg 117) In addition Connie was raised in a socially permissive atmosphere: both she and her sister Hilda had love affairs in their teenage years. Connie Chatterley marries Clifford in 1917 after a carefree childhood and the death of a German lover in World War I. An invalid’s wife, she at first denies her sexual desires and then has an affair with Michaelis, one of Clifford’s circle. The affair leaves her empty. She falls in love with Mellors and with him finds not only sexual pleasure, but also a democracy of touch as well as a natural communion. Pregnant, she decides to divorce Clifford and after a resulting confrontation with him waits for Mellors to take her to a new life, possibly overseas according to (Davis pg 2308) In Lady Chatterley’s Lover, sexual relationship is furthermore proven when Edmund Wilson says in his essay in Twentieth Century Literary Criticism “It may, in fact, probably be said that the scenes in Lady Chatterley’s Lover contain the best descriptions of sexual experience and relationship that have yet been written in English.” (Edmund pg 345) This is proven when Lawrence’s wrote, “She took off her things, and made him do the same and she was lovely in the first soft flush of her pregnancy.
