337 purposes succeeded. The end of the novel proves the theory that Lawrence's female is still a strong soul and someone who is not lost and, therefore, not prepared to submit. As for the two men, the separate embodiment of soul and body, the only thing which Lawrence could attain was still the separation of these two entities of the self. In allegorizing RamSn as the . soul and the little Cipriano as the body, the author still persists in the idea of the superiority of the soulful and shows his early preference for Calvinistic young men like Paul Morel rather than dark, sensual men like Walter Morel. The latter is still inferior. Also Lawrence could not reconcile father and son in these terms. The one who represents the soul is always superior to the one who is pictured as the body. Finally, the only element of partial success is the man-to-man friendship. Here, it seems that Lawrence has apparently proved to win his inner struggle with his homosexuality. In Ramon and Cipriano's ritual of bloodbrotherhood Lawrence could unite his soul with his body. However, as I have already pointed out, this union is somewhat curious because soul and body belong to different people. And no one can guarantee the perpetuation of the friendship due to Ramon's marriage to Teresa. Homosexuality was and still is a subject of darkness. In daylight the valid relationship is still seen between man and woman. Thus, the problem of Women in Love (marriage "balanced" by Blutbrtiderschaft) goes on, pretty much unresolved. The basic problem has not changed, only Lawrence has become hysterical, and sicker. The main proof for Lawrence's insecurity in this issue of homosexuality is that soon after he finished The Plumed Serpent, he had a nervous breakdown and in his recovery he started his 'peace with the female' in Lady Chatterley. And in this book the
338 strong element is the meeting between man and woman. The man- to-man relationship is a black page (or a 'wet dream'?) turned aside by Lawrence.
