D.H. Lawrence's Border Crossing builds upon developments within postcolonial theory to argue for a reconsideration of the concept of "spirit of place" in D. H. Lawrence#xE2;#xAC;"s travel books and "leadership" novels #xE2;#xAC;#x1C; works that record Lawrence#xE2;#xAC;"s various encounters with racial and geographical "others." Exploring his relationship to colonialism, Dr. Oh shows how Lawrence#xE2;#xAC;"s belief in different "spirits" belonging to these disparate places enables him to transcend the hierarchies between metropolis and colony, between civilized and "primitive" worlds.
