DOUGLAS, Norman (1868-1952). Autograph manuscript, n.d. [c.1941 and later], concerning his relations with D.H. Lawrence, 5½ pages, 4to, in half columns, cloth-covered portfolio.
Douglas's article responds to a passage concerning him in Richard Aldington's Life for Life's Sake (1941) and revisits the controversy of his controversial 1925 article, D.H. Lawrence and Maurice Magnus: a Plea for Better Manners: Douglas denies that this was a response to Lawrence's 'playful caricature' of him in Aaron's Rod, 'I am far too tough to care tuppence what Lawrence or anybody else likes to say about me ... If I took notice of such low-class familiarities I should have more cause to be annoyed with Aldington himself who, in a recent novel, pictures me and another person ... as engaged (under the thinnest of disguises) in so disgusting a transaction that this old and intimate friend, more sensitive than myself, promptly broke off relations with him'. A further note resumes the subject at a later date in response to an article by Aldington in The Queen.
