D. H. Lawrence (1885-1930) ve en el pueblo extinguido de los etruscos una armonía, ahora perdida, entre la sensualidad y el conocimiento, y su aproximación a ellos es una exaltación del vitalismo y una postulacion de la reconquista de la plenitud de la persona dentro de una comunicacion fisica, emocional y cultural con la Naturaleza.En primavera de 1927, mientras trabaja en la que seria la version definitiva de El amante de Lady Chatterley, el impulso de D. H. Lawrence de intimar con los etruscos se traduce en un viaje modelico: a Etruria a la vez por el espacio y el tiempo, por paisajes abiertos y por el submodo de las tumbas, por la vieja vida etrusca renovada en la experiencia presente del narrador; un viaje, se dice en el prologo, a un area geografica, pero tambien mas alla de la frontera entre el mundo nuevo, compartimentado, y el mundo viejo en el que cada cosa pertenece al Todo.Aplicando al libro de viajes su destreza de novelista y ensayista, a traves de descripciones, anecdotas, y, ante lo que va viendo, de interpretaciones deslumbradoras en las que se entrelazan historia e instinto, arte y emocion, religion y sexo, D. H. Lawrence da a conocer a los etruscos, y, a traves de ellos, abre la imaginacion a nuevos modos (o viejos modos rescatados y reinterpretados) de entender la vida y de percibir y experimentar con mas riqueza el entorno mediante el empleo simultaneo del intelecto, el sentimiento y los sentidos.
