	The New Zealand Edge : Heroes : www.nzedge.com : Katherine Mansfield
		Mansfield was born Kathleen Mansfield Beauchamp in Wellington in 1888.

	Amardeep Singh: Teaching Journal: Katherine Mansfield
		I initially just scheduled one day for Katherine Mansfield, on the strength of Hermione Lee's comments on the friendship between Mansfield and Virginia Woolf in her recent, definitive biography of Woolf.
		Woolf and Mansfield are especially close in their shared vision of the ephemerality (or collapse?) of the big concepts that form the bedrock of 19th century literary individualism –- the distinction of the self from others, the ability to know and understand that self, and the ability to respond to crises rationally and intentionally.
		Mansfield was always among my favourite authors and her stories are the few I can reread many times over and over again.

		Mansfield’s chronic poor health, several miscarriages and her 1911 infection with then often fatal tuberculosis, made death her early and familiar adversary.
		By the summer of 1922 Katherine faced the fact that her disease was probably terminal and she abandoned the expensive and ineffective radiation treatments then fashionable for consumptives.
		Still others decry the fact that she had fallen under the spell of Gurdjeff’s malign “Rasputin-like” magnetism, which she was too ill to resist (yet her interest in Gurdjieff’s ideas pre-dated her encounter with the man).

		In her stories, Mansfield captures some of the impressions we encounter daily and have time only to remark how surprising, how sudden, and how fleeting they are.
		Katherine Mansfield is one of many very talented writers who were eclipsed by others more famous (such as Woolf) or who were forgotten (because of her early death.) I decided to read these excellent stories after a critic compared her to Flannery O'Connor.
		Katherine died at the age of 32, a real pity because she was fouding a complete personal and masterly style of her own.

	ENGL 481: Katherine Mansfield & Virginia Woolf (Spring 1997) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		For a few years, Katherine Mansfield (1888-1923) and Virginia Woolf (1882-1941) were, in their different ways, among the most influential women of letters in England.
		But their shared passion for writing as a way of life led them to a kind of grudging mutual respect--each saw something of herself in the other.
		For a number of good reasons, the focus will be upon short fiction, but we will also consider the evolution of such longer works as Mansfield's The Aloe (first published in a much sparer form as Prelude) and Woolf's Mrs Dalloway (which evolved from a sequence of short stories).
