If you plan to portray a national icon in less than heroic terms, you had better be prepared for a fight, as Richard Aldington learned even before the publication of his 1955 biography, Lawrence of Arabia: A Biographical Enquiry. Fred D. Crawford provides the first examination of all major parties and points of view embroiled in the controversy generated by Aldington's biography of T. E. Lawrence. In two years of research, Aldington made major discoveries, including the extent to which Lawrence had cooperated with Lowell Thomas, Robert Graves, and B. H. Liddell Hart in the creation of the "Lawrence legend". For this and other reasons, Aldington concluded that Lawrence was a charlatan, a poseur, and a fraud. Upon learning of Aldington's antagonism to Lawrence a year before Aldington's book appeared, a powerful group including B. H. Liddell Hart, Robert Graves, A. W. Lawrence, and other Lawrence partisans worked behind the scenes to suppress and denigrate Aldington's biography. These attempts, Crawford notes, reveal a great deal about how private interests can determine what the public is allowed to read.

Questa piccola presentazione di Lawrence d'Arabia è il frutto di un percorso di lavoro e di studio più complesso di quanto possa sembrare. L'intenzione di scrivere un lavoro su una figura della storia così complessa, considerata da molti una leggenda, trova le sue radici nella magia e nel romanticismo dietro una figura a cui ero affezionato fin da quando ero giovane: Thomas Edward Lawrence. Una persona che per certi aspetti ho potuto sentire vicina per lo stesso modo di vivere, lo stesso atteggiamento verso le sfide e gli ostacoli. Incrociando nella lettura delle fonti, a volte le avventure raccontate assumevano concretezza nella realtà. Un personaggio della storia, che cento anni fa descriveva quasi meglio di altri il popolo arabo, ritrovando quelle caratteristiche che oggi sono alla base della frammentazione e della crisi del panorama internazionale. Aveva talento: era bravo con i numeri e con le persone, e questo talento, unito a un pizzico di fortuna, portò T. E. Lawrence a essere una leggenda, un re del deserto. Un deserto, che aiuta gli uomini a scoprire i propri limiti. Un luogo, dove molto sangue fu versato in passato e ancora oggi. Tuttavia, l'interesse culturale e storico per questa figura, avvolta in una nebbia di mistero, non è stato l'unico motivo per cui si è scelto questo argomento, ma il desiderio era quello di raggiungere la possibilità di scrivere qualcosa di unico sul re del deserto. Concludendo la prefazione, la dissertazione su T. E. Lawrence, per i più conosciuto come Lawrence d'Arabia, citando altre poche frasi, che lo resero popolare, può iniziare e costituire una piacevole lettura per chiunque voglia conoscerlo. This little presentation of Lawrence of Arabia is the fruit both of a work and study path more complex than which could seem. The intention to write a dissertation on such a complex figure of history, considered as a legend by many people, finds his roots on the magic and the romance behind a figure I was fond of since I was young: Thomas Edward Lawrence. A person, which for some aspects, I could feel close for the same way of living, the same attitude towards the challenges and obstacles. Crossing across the reading of the sources, sometimes I was matching myself in the adventures told. A character of the history, which one hundred years ago almost described the Arab population better than others, finding the features that nowadays are the bases of the fragmentation and crisis in the international landscape. He was talented: he was good at numbers and at people, and this talent, merged with a spark of luck, led T. E. Lawrence to be a legend, a king of the desert. A desert, which helps men discover their own limits. It comes to a desert, where a lot of blood was shred in the past and still today. However, the cultural and historical interest in this figure, wrapped in a blurred mist of mystery, was not the only reason for choosing this topic, but the desire was to reach the possibility to write something unique about the king of the desert. Concluding the preface, the dissertation on T. E. Lawrence, for the majority known as Lawrence of Arabia, quoting other few sentences, which made him popular, can start and be a enjoyful reading for all people who wants to know about him.

M. D. Allen's study deals with T. E. Lawrence's lifelong interest in the medieval world, especially medieval literature, and its considerable influence on his view of himself and of the Arabs with whom he fought in an archaic theater of war, and hence his own literary production. The Medievalism of Lawrence of Arabia investigates the influence Lawrence's interest in medieval life and literature had on his attitudes toward life in general and—in content, theme, and diction—on his masterpiece, Seven Pillars of Wisdom, in particular. Allen begins with a brief biography of Lawrence—his early interest in things medieval and his somewhat controversial BA thesis on crusader castles. Allen then reveals the extent to which Lawrence's ideas about honor, warfare, and chivalry in the Arab war against the Turks were shaped by his reading in medieval writings such as Malory's Morte d'Arthur. (Both, as he makes clear, were warrior societies dominated by horses.) Lawrence's reading in the nineteenth-century medievalism is also explored, as in Tennyson's Idylls of the King, and Ruskin's writing on art, where the parallel between Ruskin's ideas on ornament and Lawrence's ideas about the dignity of war is demonstrated. Allen then identifies the medieval and neomedieval texts of Seven Pillars of Wisdom and shows why and to what effect Lawrence borrowed from chivalric, neochivalric, and pseudochivalric works, and sometimes transmogrified them, revealing Lawrence's greatest inspiration to be an English translation of the Moallakat (which is, so to speak, the Arabic Beowulf). Allen sheds new light on many aspects of the influence of medievalism on Lawrence's thought and writing.
