Katharine Mansfield's arrival in London in 1908 marked the start of
her professional career as a writer and this study marks a revival
of her reputation as one of the foremost practitioners of the short
story. The international line-up of contributors attests to
Mansfield's global appeal. By discussing her fiction in relation to
her life, the contributors to this critical work present
reinterpretations and readings. Enhanced by new transcriptions of
manuscripts and access to her diaries and letters, these readings
combine biographical approaches with critical-theoretical ones and
focus not only on philosophy and fiction, but class and gender,
biography/autobiography. The historical and aesthetic studies of
Mansfield's work all take place within a framework of modernist
literature, criticism and theory, thereby expanding our
understanding of what it means to be a Modernist while allocating
Mansfield a firm place in any current study of Modernism.
