Publisher Description:
Through her formally innovative and psychologically insightful short stories, Katherine Mansfield is increasingly recognised as one of the central figures in early 20th-century modernism. Bringing together leading and emerging scholars and covering her complete body of work, this is the most comprehensive volume to Mansfield scholarship available today.

The Bloomsbury Handbook to Katherine Mansfield covers the full range of contemporary scholarly themes and approaches to the author's work, including:

- New biographical insights, including into the early New Zealand years
- Responses to the historical crises: the Great War, empire and orientalism
- Mansfield's fiction, poetry, criticism and private writing
- Mansfield and modernist culture - from Bloomsbury to the little magazines
- Mansfield and her contemporaries - Woolf, Lawrence and von Arnim
- Mansfield and the arts - visual culture, cinema and music

The book also includes a substantial annotated bibliography of key works of Mansfield scholarship from the last 30 years.
