Abstract

Explores the multiple ways in which Mansfield's fiction resonates with the landscapes opened up by psychology and psychoanalysis.

In line with the recent surge of critical interest in early psychology, the contributors read Mansfield's work alongside figures like William James and Henri Bergson, opening up new perspectives on affect in her work. While these essays trace strands within the intellectual milieu in which Mansfield came of age, others explore the intricate interplay between Mansfield's fiction and Freudian theory, seeing her work as emblematic of the uncanny doubling of modernist literature and psychoanalysis.

Key Features
  • New readings of Mansfield's work alongside figures like William James, Théodule Ribot and Henri Bergson
  • New perspectives on the representation of affect and emotion in Mansfield's fiction
  • The essays open up novel ways of thinking about fiction of unrivalled psychological complexity
  • Mansfield's work is shown to be emblematic of the uncanny doubling of modernist literature and psychoanalysis

Abstract

Katherine Mansfield’s French Lives explores how both the literary, cultural, editorial and biographical influence of French arts and philosophy, and life as an émigré in France shaped Mansfield’s evolution as a key modernist writer, while setting her within the geographies and cultural dynamics of Anglo-French modernism. Mansfield’s many stays in France were decisive in intellectual, personal and psychological terms: discovering ‘Murry’s Paris’ and the Left Bank; escaping to the War Zone to join Francis Carco; living as a civilian in wartime during the bombardments of Paris; travelling and finding lodgings as a single woman in war-ravaged towns; the experience of bereavement and debilitating ill-health abroad; and the joys and pitfalls for an outsider of a foreign land and idiom.
