Chris Power explores the writing of Katherine Mansfield on the centenary of her death.

Subscriber-only episodeSend us a textAmy springboards off our discussion of last week's “lost lady,” Mary MacLane, to further investigate the woman whose diary inspired her. From the age of 12 until her death at 25, Russian-born painter Marie Bashkirtseff detailed her daily life, frustrations, flirtations and family drama. First published in 1887, the diary enthralled readers including British Prime Minister William Gladstone and George Bernard Shaw, while future diarists like Anaïs Nin and Katherine Mansfield were also inspired by Bashkirtseff's musings. Amy reads excerpts in this week's bonus episode to give listeners a glimpse into the world of a precocious young artist in late-19th-century Paris.Mentioned in this episode:Brat Summer explainedBelvedere MuseumMarie BashkirtseffThe Journal of Marie Bashkirtseff translated by Katherine Kernberger and Phyllis Howard Kernberger“In the Fog” by Marie Bashkirtseff“In the Studio” by Marie Bashkirtseff“Self-portrait with Palette” by Marie BashkirtseffI Await the Devil's Coming by Mary MacLaneGeorge Bernard ShawWilliam GladstoneFor episodes and show notes, visit: LostLadiesofLit.comDiscuss episodes on our Facebook Forum.

Entretien mené par Raphaëlle Leyris Mais qu'est-ce qui a bien pu entraîner Jean Rolin en Guyane à la chasse aux papillons ? Il était pourtant parti, en souvenir de sa mère, sur la Côte d'Azur, depuis Bandol jusqu'à Menton, suivre à pied les traces de l'écrivaine britannique Katherine Mansfield. Mais son périple devait s'interrompre brutalement à Hyères, sur les différents lieux du tournage de “Pierrot le Fou” de Godard. Dans son hôtel, en proie au découragement, alors qu'il zappait sur les chaînes de son téléviseur, il tombe sur le film “Papillon”, adapté du roman d'Henri Charrière. Et plus précisément sur la scène dans laquelle Steve McQueen et Dustin Hoffman s'efforcent avec maladresse de capturer des papillons Morpho, avant de les remettre à un agent de l'administration du célèbre bagne de Cayenne. Le voilà embarqué outre-mer, jusque dans la forêt amazonienne, sur la piste de ces fameux papillons, traçant un itinéraire poétique à travers la géopolitique, l'histoire coloniale et les guerres, la littérature (avec Nabokov notamment), et donnant une magistrale illustration de son talent descriptif et narratif. À lire – Jean Rolin, Les Papillons du bagne, P.O.L, 2024.

S6 E7: Mandy Henderson on the Poetry of Katherine Mansfield The pleasure of all reading is doubled when one lives with another who shares the same books.” Katherine Mansfield Welcome to Tea Toast & Trivia. Thank you for listening in. I am your host, Rebecca Budd, and I look forward to sharing this moment with you. Katherine Mansfield (1888-1923) was a highly acclaimed New Zealand writer and poet. Born in Wellington, New Zealand October 14, 1888, she is regarded as one of the most influential modernist short story writers of her time. Mansfield's poetic sensibility and expert craftsmanship have secured her a lasting place in literary history. Katherine's writings are known for their vivid imagery, introspective themes, and exploration of the complexities of human emotions. Her remarkable ability to capture the subtle nuances of everyday life and convey them through delicate and lyrical language sets her apart. Despite her untimely death at the age of 34, Mansfield's legacy as a pioneering writer continues to resonate in the literary world. Today, I am traveling to New Zealand to meet up with my blogger friend, Mandy Henderson to discuss the remarkable life and work of Katherine Mansfield. I invite you to put the kettle on and join the conversation on Tea Toast & Trivia. Thank you, Mandy, for sharing the life and poetry of Katherine Mansfield. As Katherine wrote many years ago, “The pleasure of all reading is doubled when one lives with another who shares the same books.”  Today we have shared the pleasure of reading her poetry, together. Dear listeners, thank you for joining Mandy and me on Tea Toast & Trivia and celebrating the life and work of Katherine Mansfield.

Stephanie Bastek has been with The American Scholar for 10 years, where she is now senior editor. She hosts and produces the magazine's Smarty Pants podcast, with has just returned with a new miniseries called “Exploding the Canon” about the student protests at her alma mater, Reed College, over the mandatory freshmen humanities course eight years ago. The American Scholar plays a unique role in the literary-journalism realm: its writings often offer a response to newsworthy events but may do through an interdisciplinary approach that weaves in history or literature, for example, and aims to be far-ranging and reflective. In this episode, the first essay we focus on is Hugh Martin's “Shooting a Dog” from the Winter 2024 issue. Set in Iraq, it invokes a parallel to George Orwell's essay “Shooting an Elephant” set in what was then called Burma. In each case, the supposedly superior Westerner fears being seen as a fool by those he lords over. Similar tensions involving masculine pride, patriotism, and more, surface here. A second essay being covered is “The Lives of Bryan” by Jennifer Sinor from the Summer 2023 issue. The author's brother has had four previous brushes with death, before a heart attack ends his life. A distraught father's insistence that what Bryan has hoarded in his mobile equates to “throwing away a piece of your brother,” brings up issues of loss, transience, and the uncertain vagaries we all try to navigate as best we can. “An Outrage Sacred to the Gods” by Greg Afinogenov from the Winter 2024 issue explores his father's death, and the role of alcoholism as a death wish that the author struggles to overcome in his own life. With “I'll Be Seeing You” by Patricia Hampl from the Spring 2023 issue, being an outsider is front and center. Hampl has made a pilgrimage to visit a close associate of the writer Katherine Mansfield, only to be rebuffed, leading to a more fruitful connection with her guide for the occasion, an editor whose “pure homosexual” accent places him, like his American visitor, outside England's class structure.

Found a very thought-provoking post from The Positivity Project.  This quote - "When we begin to take our failures non-seriously, it means we are ceasing to be afraid of them. It is of immense importance to learn to laugh at ourselves." - Katherine Mansfield.   This helped me to look at myself a bit more with some laughs and some more confidence.  When I mess up - which is a lot- I'm still learning to learn from those moments. Not to stay in the self-misery of messing up.  Here is the biggie - to quit being afraid of those moments and making myself feel worse.  When I beat myself up, I hold myself back from doing great things.  This was a very good reminder for me and I hope for you too.  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.

Veneno (Poison) es un relato de terror de la escritora neozelandesa Katherine Mansfield (1888-1923), compuesto en 1920 y publicado de manera póstuma en la antología de 1924: Algo infantil y otras historias (Something Childish and Other Stories). Veneno, uno de los mejores relatos de Katherine Mansfield, prescinde de los elementos típicos del cuento fantástico, de lo sobrenatural, para lograr una atmósfera verdaderamente inquietante y un desenlace a la altura de la exquisita sutileza a la que nos tiene acostumbrados esta notable autora. Podemos pensar que Veneno de Katherine Mansfield es, después de todo, un relato psicológico a lo largo los personajes principales solo brindan ligeros indicios, rastros exiguos, de lo que se avecina en los últimos párrafos.

El vacío ante la pérdida es también una jaula vacía. La narradora de este cuento publicado por primera vez en 1923 nos abre paso a su alma rota. Ha muerto su pájaro y el vínculo que había entre ambos (¿o era unilateral?) la deja en total soledad. La tristeza es una profundidad parecida a la de los sótanos: oscura, húmeda, fría, desesperanzadora. ¿Cuándo se deja de extrañar a un ser querido? ¿Qué se hace con la angustia que hace nido en el corazón? +++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Qué es POR QUÉ LEER Por qué leer es un proyecto multiplataforma que promueve el placer por la lectura.
