Book Synopsis Katherine Mansfield by : Gerri Kimber
Download or read book Katherine Mansfield written by Gerri Kimber and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2008 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book assesses the reason why Katherine Mansfield's reputation in France has always been greater than in England. It examines the ways in which the French reception of Mansfield has idealised her persona to the extent of crafting a hagiography. Mansfield is placed within the general literary context of her era, exploring French literary tendencies at the time and juxtaposing them with the main literary trends in England. The author determines the motives behind the French critics' desire to put Mansfield on a pedestal, discusses how the three years she spent on French soil influenced her writing and whether the translations of her work collude in the myth surrounding her personality. This book is the first sustained attempt to establish interconnections between her own French influences (literary and otherwise) and the myth-making of the French critics and translators. The book also follows the critical appraisal of Mansfield's life and work in France from her death up to the present day, by closely analysing the differing French critical responses. The author reveals how these various strands combine to create a legend which has little basis in fact, thereby demonstrating how reception and translation determine the importance of an author's reputation in the literary world.
Book Synopsis Katherine Mansfield and Children by : Gerri Kimber
Download or read book Katherine Mansfield and Children written by Gerri Kimber and published by EUP. This book was released on 2021-10-22 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Presents cutting-edge criticism on the theme of Katherine Mansfield and children What Virginia Woolf called 'Childlikeness' is a facet of Mansfield's personality which permeates every aspect of her personal and creative life. It is present in her mature fiction, where some of her most well-known and accomplished stories, such as 'Prelude' and 'At the Bay', have children as protagonists. It is present in her early poetry, which includes a collection of poems for children intended for publication and it is also present in her juvenilia, where many of the stories she wrote from an early age for school magazines and other publications, feature children. Even as an adult, Mansfield's love of the miniature, her delight in children in general, her fascination with dolls, all feature in her personal writing. Her relationship with John Middleton Murry was characterised by their mutual descriptions of themselves as little children fighting against a corrupt world. Including a newly discovered short story potentially by Mansfield, with an explanatory essay, this volume engages each of these aspects of the child in Mansfield's work and life. Gerri Kimber is Visiting Professor in English at the University of Northampton. Todd Martin is Professor of English at Huntington University and the President of the Katherine Mansfield Society.
Book Synopsis Katherine Mansfield and Literary Modernism by : Janet Wilson
Download or read book Katherine Mansfield and Literary Modernism written by Janet Wilson and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2011-05-05 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Katherine 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.

Book Synopsis Katherine Mansfield by : Janka Kascakova
Download or read book Katherine Mansfield written by Janka Kascakova and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-12-24 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Katherine Mansfield has been widely recognised as one of the key authors of her generation, continuing to influence literary modernism and the short story genre through her nomadic existence, colonial perspective, eclectic interests and impressive range of literary acquaintances. This volume utilises these seemingly endless avenues for critical exploration, analysing Mansfield’s influences, including the familial, historical and geographical as well as literary and artistic approaches. Some connections are well established and acknowledged, some controversial, many still undiscovered. This volume brings a fresh collection of original viewpoints on Katherine Mansfield’s life and work, both of which, in her own case, are frequently indistinguishable. It investigates her fascinating connection with Poland which is explored in a complex and detailed way for the first time; suggests new or revised views on her connections to other English and American writers; and finally examines some of the aspects of her writing process, her engagement with the arts, imagination, memories and her constructions of different kinds of space.

Book Synopsis Why Translation Matters by : Edith Grossman
Download or read book Why Translation Matters written by Edith Grossman and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Why Translation Matters argues for the cultural importance of translation and for a more encompassing and nuanced appreciation of the translator's role. As the acclaimed translator Edith Grossman writes in her introduction, "My intention is to stimulate a new consideration of an area of literature that is too often ignored, misunderstood, or misrepresented." For Grossman, translation has a transcendent importance: "Translation not only plays its important traditional role as the means that allows us access to literature originally written in one of the countless languages we cannot read, but it also represents a concrete literary presence with the crucial capacity to ease and make more meaningful our relationships to those with whom we may not have had a connection before. Translation always helps us to know, to see from a different angle, to attribute new value to what once may have been unfamiliar. As nations and as individuals, we have a critical need for that kind of understanding and insight. The alternative is unthinkable"."--Jacket.

Book Synopsis Translation and Literary Analysis by : Mariam Hovhannisyan
Download or read book Translation and Literary Analysis written by Mariam Hovhannisyan and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2012 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The role of translation is central in the literary polysystem. Without translation literatures could not be experienced outside their usual areas of language use. Without criticism literatures could not build up traditions that help to preserve and disseminate them. The following connections lie between them: 1.They both have important roles in the literary polysystem 2.Both translation and literary criticism characterize literatures from different angles. 3.Both of them serve to find out the merits and values of literary works and provide much distribution for the work. So, they are as if the afterlife of literary works. 4.Translation like literary criticism is based on individual experience and worldview, etc. of the translator/ critic and hence it is difficult to assess them. 5.Translation analysis is one type of literary analysis, because Translation has been and is a value of a literary work. The more it is translated, the more valuable it is. Any complete review of this or that work of art includes its (un)translatability. The stages of translation analysis are the same for the literary criticism. There is much compatibility between them that needs much study."

Recently, new research into the complex relationship between these writers has extended our understanding of the familial, personal and literary connections between these unlikely friends. We know that they were an influential presence on one another and reviewed each other's work.By bringing the work of Mansfield and von Arnim together - including on matters of artistry, on mourning, on gardens, on female resistance - this book establishes shared preoccupations in ways that refine and extend our knowledge of writing in the period. It also deepens our understanding of the historical and literary contexts within which both of these extraordinary authors worked.

Book excerpt: »Prelude« is a short story by Katherine Mansfield, first published in 1918. KATHERINE MANSFIELD, actually Kathleen Mansfield Beauchamp (later Murry), was born in 1888 in Wellington, New Zealand, and died in 1923 as a result of her pulmonary tuberculosis at a hospital near Fontainebleau, France. Mansfield left her homeland at the age of 19 and moved to Europe. In London, she established herself as a writer and became friends with Virginia Woolf and D.H. Lawrence. Rumour has it that the latter infected her with the lung disease that became her demise, at the young age of 35.
