D. H. Lawrence's essay 'The Crown' was written during the World War I, and the first three chapters of this essay were published consecutively in The Signature, a magazine which he started with John Middleton Murry in 1915. The whole essay was published ten years later as a book with his other essays. 'The Crown' is important not only in relationship with his novels and other literary works but also as a key element for his view of the world, life, nation, and so on. Besides, it significantly testifies to the status quo of the wartime England. This paper tries to examine the theme of 'The Crown' and delve into Lawrence's viewpoint on nation, or rather, his transnationalistic view which may lead to a further prospect for a new world.
