 Portrait of John Murry (Richard Cowper)
John Middleton Murry, who has died suddenly aged 75, grew up in the literary shadow of his famous father, but he was an excellent novelist in his own right and in later years became an admired and popular science fiction writer.
JMM Snr was harsh: he complained that its style, seemingly autobiographical, would identify him as the protagonist and because 'Betty' was depicted sympathetically, an unfavourable light would be thrown on him.
John was crushed by this self-serving response and by the time of his father's death in 1957 the wound had hardly healed.

 Murry   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
Murry, born into a lower-middle class family in the suburbs of London, may have followed in his father's footsteps and become a civil-servant, but instead re-invented himself as an ardent, if peripheral, figure in the history of modernism.
It is probable that Murry saw in Lawrence the type of the "Symbolic Man" that so interested him, and that Lawrence saw in Murry the kind of apostle he desired.
After the publication of Murry's first novel, Lawrence remarked that despite being "clever" Murry was a "non-creative individual." It was perhaps the failure of his belief in his creativity as a kind of faith that led him into a form of criticism that engaged his subject's inner turmoil, a vicarious excursion into the creative spirit.

 Shakespeare’s Method: The Merchant of Venice
In this essay, Murray says The Merchant of Venice is “a matter-of-fact fairy tale: a true folk story, made drama.” (Murry, 189) William Shakespeare created this play for the sole purpose of making it a drama and a folk story and had no intent on this play being anything more.
It can be seen that the play is a “pure melodrama or tragic-comedy, an almost perfect example of the art-form which being prior to art itself, most evidently and completely satisfies the primitive man in us all.” (Murry, 189) The Merchant of Venice had the sole purpose of being made into a feel-good story.
John Middleton Murry states that what Shakespeare did not do “was to attempt to make it (the play) an intellectually coherent whole.
