Katherine Mansfield’s Modernism in the Publishing Economy

J. McDonnell places Katherine Mansfield’s development as a writer alongside the practical conditions of book and periodical publishing. Covering an engagement with the literary marketplace that began when Mansfield was eighteen, the study considers how publication contexts shaped her career and her experiments with the short-story form. It frames Mansfield’s modernism not apart from commercial pressures, but in relation to the challenge of creating an aesthetic that could function within the market. The book offers a focused critical lens on authorship, publishing, and the material circumstances surrounding literary innovation.
