Abstract:
This paper investigates the relationship between the two modernist writers Katherine Mansfield and Virginia Woolf. The two authors had a frail and complicated friendship that influenced their fiction and fictional characters more than the general public knows. My paper investigates how Woolf can have found her fictional story ideas direct from their friendship. With a comparative theory I’m finding and giving examples of how their friendship is reflected in their fictional stories, and I’m backing up my examples with citations from their own diaries, letters and notebooks.

Abstract:
Katherine Mansfield among the Moderns examines Katherine Mansfield’s relationship with three fellow writers: Virginia Woolf, D. H. Lawrence, and Aldous Huxley, and appraises her impact on their writing. Drawing on the literary and the personal relationships between the aforementioned, and on letters, diaries, and journals, this project traces Mansfield’s interactions with her contemporaries, providing a richer and more dynamic portrait of Mansfield’s place within modernism than usually recognized. Hitherto, critical work has not scrutinized Mansfield in the manner I suggest: attending to repre

Abstract:
Solitude and self have been common topics for discussion and scrutiny by philosophers, scholars and writers. However, it was not until the turn of the twentieth century, with women 's enlightenment, that one notices women writers ' interest in understanding their selves in moments of solitude. Women who were conscious of drastic social changes often examined their lives and explored their selves in solitude. Katherine Mansfield and Virginia Woolf represent women writers of their time who shared a common interest in portraying women's quests for self in solitude. The present study shows how the

Abstract:
The relationship between literary Modernism and the short story is a neglected area, particularly in terms of women's writing. Traditionally, critical interest in Virginia Woolf's novels and essays has tended to eclipse her short fiction, whilst the stories of Dorothy Richardson and May Sinclair are virtually absent from serious critical discussion. Only Katherine Mansfield has received due attention, though rarely in relation to her women contemporaries. Since the early 1990s, however, there has been a renaissance of interest in the Modernist short story. This draws attention to a recurring p

This thesis reconsiders in detail the connections between a selection of innovative female modernist writers who experimented variously with stream-of-consciousness techniques, May Sinclair, Dorothy Richardson, Katherine Mansfield and Virginia Woolf. It describes in this context the impact of the philosophy and thoughts of both William James and Henri Bergson upon these women writers’ literary work. It also argues for a fundamental revision of existing understandings of this interconnection by considering the feminist context of such work and recognising that the work of these four female writ

Abstract:
From 1910 to 1930, and in the aftermath of the First World War, history and politics were focused on the city. The city crystallised what was at once a temporal crisis and a period rich in potential. It was, at the same time, a laboratory for a new Modernist aesthetics in literature and the stage on which women at last arrived. The writings of Virginia Woolf, Jean Rhys, Katherine Mansfield and Rose Macaulay take on the historical and socio-political determinations that, for women, structured urban space like a grid. The subjectivities of their female characters constitute positions which allow

This dissertation examines everyday life in selected works by Dorothy Richardson, Virginia Woolf, and Katherine Mansfield. It builds on recent scholarship by Bryony Randall (2007) and Liesl Olson (2009), who have argued that modernism marks a turn to the mundane or the ordinary, a view that runs contrary to the long-established understanding of modernism as characterized by its stylistic difficulty, high culture aesthetics, and extraordinary moments. This study makes a departure from these seminal critical works, taking on a feminist perspective to look specifically at how modernist authors us
