description Ecocritical and geopoetic readings of Lady Chatterley's Lover have looked away from the encounter between Lady Chatterley and the gamekeeper and, instead, emphasised the peculiar environmental connectedness described in the book. All characters are indeed dealing with what D.H. Lawrence calls the « spirit of place », specifically in this book the spirit of the Sherwood forest. Human dramas should therefore be relegated to the background to reveal the importance of places in the story. In this sense, what takes place in the book, especially so in the hut, must be read as something that takes place in a fundamental way that can be linked to the more general and philosophical question of « dwelling » in the world.
