Aprašymas
A new authoritative edition of Katherine Mansfield’s complete correspondence Provides accurate transcriptions that shed new light on the everyday, intimate world of Mansfield as a letter-writer Organised A-Z, which foregrounds the lives and personalities of her correspondents, along with the various self-fictionalising games that the letter-writer played Showcases letters and sections of letters that have never previously been published Provides meticulous explanatory notes and rich contextual information Offers extensive attention to the cultural and socio-political context of the correspondence From Conrad Aiken to Hugh Jones, this first volume covers correspondents from every period of Mansfield’s life. A detailed introduction, together with biographical portraits for each correspondent, enhance the cultural and socio-historical context, while the letters themselves offer a detailed exposé of Mansfield’s life: from exile and emigration, intimacy and betrayal, and the traumas of war and disease, to nature and the environment and fashions and food. The volume also reveals the intimacies of some of Mansfield’s most prized friendships.
