No matter the length of one's life, more or less, he must be influenced by someone others on his thought and soul, and it is especially true for Yutang Lin, who has profound knowledge in both eastern and western literatures. Once you open his famous literature, , it is obviously shown that, Yutang is a hybrid with profound eastern and western origins. As a bilingual writer, his popularity in the western countries is even better than in China. Undoubtedly, we cannot ignore the impact of foreign writers on Yutang, such as Nietzsche, Buck, George, etc. Among them , Lawrence is the important one that has great effect on Yutang, which can be observed in his work as well as some essays of him. Then a comparison of the effects of the two authors will be significant for the exploration of the depth and span of their works, as well as the evaluation of their achievements.By combining two ways of study, namely, study of influence and study of parrilism, this paper manages to discuss Yutang Lin's achievements by absorbing and learning from D.H.Lawrence, by comparing their works ,letter and dairy with the method of diachronic And by using the study of parrilism, this paper anatomys their excellence as well as their difference on image building and illustrate the essence of their works profoundly.Concretely, we conduct the research with emphasis in three aspects. Firstly, we analyze the influence of Lawrence's sex philosophy on Yutang Lin. It could be shown in Yutang's understanding appreciation in sex, and the exquisite and implicit erotic description. Secondly, we talk about the inspiration of Lawrence's aesthetic philosophy on Yutang. For instance, they both highly advocate robust and vigorous men, as well as fervency and foursquare women. Finally, Lawrence has his effect in the natural sense of Yutang. He has shown his profound comprehension in both the denial and criticism for actualism and fantasy of going back to nature. This paper analyzes the similitude and dissimilitude between the two celebrities. We expect the paper could deepen the comprehension; more in-depth comments on this topic are warm welcome.
