Book Katherine Mansfield

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 Katherine Mansfield and the Bloomsbury Group

Download or read book Katherine Mansfield and the Bloomsbury Group written by Todd Martin and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2017-06-01 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The New Zealand-born writer Katherine Mansfield associated intimately with many members of the Bloomsbury group, but her literary aesthetics placed her at a distance from the artistic works of the group. With chapters written by leading international scholars, Katherine Mansfield and the Bloomsbury Group explores this conflicted relationship. Bringing together biographical and critical studies, the book examines Mansfield's relationships – personal and literary – with such major Modernist figures as Virginia Woolf, T.S. Eliot, Aldous Huxley and Walter de la Mare as well as the ways in which her work engaged with and reacted against Bloomsbury. In this way the book reveals the true extent of Mansfield's wider influence on 20th-century modernist writing.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bachelor Thesis from the year 2013 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: 1.3, University of Leipzig, language: English, abstract: This thesis focuses on presenting reasons for either including or excluding Katherine Mansfield in the New Zealand canon of literature and argues her affiliation to the country. Situating Mansfield within either the British or the New Zealand canon of literature is difficult; several attempts have been made over the past decades. Often, the work on the subject has been inconclusive, Mansfield’s writing was found to show attributes which would make it possible to include her with both the New Zealand and the European or British tradition of writing. Other times the evidence let to different evaluations, clearly situating her in the British canon only. These pages shall give an explanation for this ambiguity.

Book Mike Mansfield  Majority Leader

Download or read book Mike Mansfield Majority Leader written by Francis R. Valeo and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-01-29 with total page 381 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of Mike Mansfield's influential fifteen-year reign as Senate Majority Leader is colored with some of the most important events of this century: the election of John F. Kennedy, the Kennedy and King assassinations, student and political unrest of the late Sixties, Vietnam, Watergate, the Nixon resignation, and numerous important pieces of legislation from the era, among them the 1964 Civil Rights Act. Valeo, Secretary of the Senate under Mansfield, writes about the Senate and Mansfield's role in national affairs from 1961-76. He argues that Mansfield was instrumental in shaping a more egalitarian kind of Senate than that of the 1950s, when Lyndon B. Johnson was Majority Leader.

Book Lord Chief Justice Mansfield

Download or read book Lord Chief Justice Mansfield written by Ernest B. Lowrie and published by Archway Publishing. This book was released on 2016-04-19 with total page 490 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The American Revolution continues to resonate as one of historys most important events, but most people fail to appreciate the role Lord Chief Justice Mansfield played in the conflict. Ernest B. Lowrie engages in a serious rethinking of the causes of the American Revolution, explaining how Lord Mansfields decisions from his elevation to the Court of Kings Bench in 1756 until his retirement in 1788 gave Great Britain the firepower it needed to attempt to tax its colonies. Lord Mansfields formal education turned on the Scottish legal system, and as a Scottish Law Lord, it was axiomatic in his opinion that the colonials ought to pay taxes to the imperial government. After the Boston Tea Party, he decisively shaped the Intolerable Acts. When the British Army defeated the Americans in 1776, he was elevated to the rank of Earl of Mansfield. With the utter defeat of the British at Saratoga in 1777, however, events began to change. Soon France entered the contest, but Lord Mansfield never gave up until King George III was forced to sue for peace. Get a detailed look at a dark horse of the American Revolution who played a critical role in driving the conflict.
