The ground-breaking essays gathered in this volume argue that
global paradigms of World Literature, often referencing the major
metropolitan centres of cultural and literary production, do not
always accommodate voices from the margins and writing within
minority genres such as the short story. Katherine Mansfield is a
supreme example of a writer who is positioned between a number of
different borders and boundaries: between modernism and
postcolonialism; between the short story and other genres (like the
novella or poetry, or non-fiction, such as letters, diaries,
reviews, and translations); between Europe and New Zealand. In
pointing to the global production and dissemination of short
stories, and in particular the growing reception of Mansfields work
worldwide since her death in 1923, the volume shows how literary
modernism can be read in a myriad of ways in terms of the
contemporary category of new World Literature.
