Abstract

The academic field of literary criticism or literary theory has long taken advantage of the covert connection between literature and psychoanalysis, as this study did when it employed a psychoanalytic technique to analyze a literary work. Psychoanalysis is one of the contentious and unappreciated literary criticism philosophies among many readers (Hossain, 2017, p. 41). The persona or the character of the literary work is one of the literary methods. This study seeks to identify the late persona in D.H. Lawrence's final three collections of poetry, which were composed near the time of the author's death due to extremely poor health. The study of a writer's unintended message is referred to as psychoanalytical critique. The investigation's main point of interest is the author's biographical background. The main goal is to look at the unconscious components of a literary work in the context of the author's upbringing. It is a technique for correctly and critically understanding the literary material. Additionally, it is a type of psychoanalytic reading. We can understand literary texts better by using psychoanalytical thinking. We can swiftly master the subject matter thanks to the manipulation of the literary text and the sharper picture it produces. Psychoanalytical critique is one of the most fundamental reading strategies for comprehending the psyche (Ahmed, 2021, p. 2). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
