To A.R. Orage, 9 February 1921, Letters: IV, p. 177. 29. It is worth noting that the politics of the journal were constantly evolving, so that the New Age of 1907 is very different from that of 1922. When Orage began his editorship of the journal, he was simultaneously interested in the writings of Nietzsche and the Labour Party movement; by the , however, a gradual shift to the right is evident in the New Age’s editorial 188 Notes

policies and in Orage’s own writing, as Gary Taylor discusses in Orage and the New Age (Sheffield: Sheffield Hallam University Press, 2000), pp. 26, 124. 30. Martin, p. 26. Exact figures for the circulation of the New Age cannot be established, but Ardis suggests that in August 1913 – two years after the period of Mansfield’s main association with the paper – its weekly circula- tion was probably around 4,500: ‘that is, down from its all-time high water mark at 22,000 in 1908, but nonetheless substantially larger than the circu- lation of the literary magazines with whom the history of modernism has been most closely associated, while at the same time substantially smaller than the circulation of mainstream British quarterlies like the Fortnightly Review, “smart” American magazines like the Smart Set, or working-class British periodicals like T.P.’s Weekly.’ Ardis, ‘The Dialogics of Modernism(s) in the New Age’, p. 417. 31.

Gary Taylor notes that ‘it has been argued that it was only under Orage’s guidance that the ideas of Douglas were presented in a form that could be understood’ (Taylor, p. 106). Taylor’s study demonstrates a recent shift in emphasis in Orage’s criticism which suggests the degree to which he might have manipulated work that appeared in the New Age, and elsewhere. This is of most significance in the case of the 1914 book National Guilds: An Inquiry into the Wage System. Despite the fact that it was the product of what Taylor deems ‘a group of thinkers’, the book was published only under Orage’s name as editor without any mention of the other major contributor, S.G. Hobson (Taylor, p. 59). Orage further stamped his claim on National Guilds by writing an unauthorised preface to the collection. 36.

Granville was a friend of Orage’s; his firm published a good number of collections of essays and fiction from the New Age through- out 1911 including J.M. Kennedy’s Tory Democracy, Hilaire Belloc and Cecil Chesterton’s The Party System, Beatrice Hastings’ The Maid’s Comedy and G.F. Abbott’s The Philosophy of a Don, all of which had previously been seri- alised in the New Age throughout 1910 and 1911. 57. Antony Alpers (ed.)

The ‘balderdash’ published in the Blue Review pos- sibly refers to ‘New Dresses’ and ‘The Little Girl’, which actually appeared in Rhythm in October 1912. Mansfield’s only contributions to the Blue Review were the ‘Epilogues’ (which recall the ‘Pension Sketches’) and the colonial realist story ‘Millie’ between May and July 1913. 61.

Similarly, when the first six numbers of the Open Window (edited by Alfred E.

Gray claims Mansfield’s image of a barrel-organ in ‘Along the Gray’s Inn Road’ echoes Hastings’ ‘Oriole Notes’, which appeared under the pseudonym ‘Beatrice Tina’ in New Age, 3.13 (25 July 1908), 250; he notes the recurrence of the image in the parody of G.K. Chesterton in ‘A P.S.A.’ (‘A Pleasant Sunday Afternoon’) in New Age, 9.4 (25 May 1911), 93. He also draws attention to the similarities between Mansfield’s ‘The Festival of the Coronation (with Apologies to Theocritus)’ and ‘Beatrice Tina’s’ ‘Tête a Tête, a la Femme’, New Age, 4.22 (25 March 1909), 443–4. 75. 30 November 1918, Diary VW: 1, p. 222. 76.

This is in direct contrast to Murry’s presentation of events. The first biogra- phy of Mansfield, written by Ruth Elvish Mantz with John Middleton Murry in 1933, accounts for Mansfield’s break with the New Age as follows: ‘I’m Notes 191

not getting on very well with The New Age […]. They have a conviction that I can only write satire. And I’m not a very satirical person – really.’ This is presented as a direct quotation (in conversation with Murry) and is indica- tive of Murry’s posthumous reconstruction of Mansfield’s voice in much the same way as Orage does in ‘Talks with Katherine Mansfield’.

Her sole publication of 1914 was in New Zealand, when a private letter to Laura Kate Bright was printed in the Evening Post, Wellington, on 6 November 1914, p. 6: it appeared under a paragraph headed ‘Writing from London to a Wellington resident under the date 21 September, a correspondent says: – “Here, in London, we are in the throes of this frightful war...”’.

One suggestion was ‘The Rainbow Books and Music’, a proposed private press to be set up with Murry and Philip Heseltine. At one point, he viewed Mansfield’s ‘novel’ as a potential publication for the press; see his letter to Mansfield of 17 , DHL Letters: II, p. 545. Nothing came of the proposed scheme. 18.

Mansfield is referring here to Murry’s reaction to ‘Je ne parle pas français’ when he read the manuscript at the beginning of 1918 and wrote to her that ‘I wasn’t prepared for the tragic turn of “Je ne parle pas”, and it upset me – I’m an awful child. But it’s lovely, lovely. I must read it right through again to taste fully the growth of the quality of that ending out of that beginning’. She had been expecting a more critical response from him. 15 February 1918, LJMM, p. 121. 87. To Murry, 3 December 1920, Letters: IV, p. 133. 88. 15 February 1918, LJMM, p. 309. 89.

There is a discrepancy between the title of the story and the title of the collection. The former originally hyphenated ‘garden party’ whereas the latter did not. In this book, the story will be cited as ‘The Garden Party’ and the collection as The Garden Party. 5.

She did attribute at least some of her renewed ability to write during this time to her reunion with Murry in Switzerland, which reminded her of their time in Bandol at the beginning of 1916 when ‘The Aloe’ was completed. See for example her letter to Murry of 15 May 1921, which presents an idyl- lic picture of the two of them living and writing together in the Swiss Alps (at the time, Mansfield had travelled to for treatment for her tuber- culosis, leaving Murry behind in Switzerland): ‘I see a small chalet with a garden, near the pine forests. […] There are our books. […] You are in your room writing. I in mine’ (Letters: IV, p. 224). However, the distance in their relationship is evident even in this vision, since they occupy separate rooms: in Bandol, they had worked at opposite sides of one table. Moreover, the idyll did not last and Mansfield wrote on 8 February 1922: ‘I now know that Notes 203

I must grow a shell away from you. I want, “I ask for” my independence. At any moment in the future you may suddenly leave me in the lurch if it pleases you. It is a part of your nature. […] But my very soul rebels against when its fine you prefer your work & your work is more urgent than this affair in Paris [her treatment] has been.’ Letters: V, p. 52. 12.

Her notebook records that on 12 January 1922 ‘Jack and I “typed”. I hate dictating but the story still seems to me to be good. Is it?’. It is unclear which story this was, though it is likely to have been ‘A Cup of Tea’, which had been written the previous day. Notebooks: II, p. 316. 24. 2 February 1922. In Cherry A. Hankin (ed.)

For the American edition of the book, Mansfield made a change to ‘At the Bay’, siphoning off the final paragraph into a separate numbered section. The American edition’s 13-part structure is maintained in Alpers’ Stories; in the Constable edition and Murry’s reprints, there are 12 sections. Otherwise, the text in both remains the same. 204 Notes

To Dorothy Brett, 11 November 1921, Letters: IV, p. 316. 70. Orage’s description of her career reads as follows: ‘she was always dissatisfied and always improving herself. From the age of about twenty-one, when she showed me her first sketch, and I published it in the New Age, to her death at thirty-three [sic], at a moment when she was planning to write again after some months’ rest, she worked, as few writers work, to develop and perfect her style in the agony of conviction that so far it was only embryonic.’ A.R. Orage, ‘Talks with Katherine Mansfield’ in Herbert Read and Dennis Saurat (eds) A.R. Orage: Selected Essays and Critical Writings (London: Stanley Nott, 1935), p. 125. 71. See for example her entry for 27 October 1921, which lists eight stories (the settings of which alternate between London and New Zealand) under the heading ‘Stories for my next book’. One of these, ‘At Karori’, became ‘The Doll’s House’. The note for the unwritten ‘Lives Like Logs of Driftwood’ is intriguing for its description: ‘This wants to be a long, very well written story. The men are important, especially the lesser men. It wants a great deal of working … newspaper office.’ Notebooks: II, p. 297. 72. Four of these were published in her lifetime. Two (‘The Fly’ and ‘Honeymoon’) appeared in the Nation & the Athenaeum; ‘Taking the Veil’ in the Sketch (another one of Clement Shorter’s illustrated papers); and ‘A Cup of Tea’, Mansfield’s final published story in her lifetime, in the Story-Teller. 73. 8 January 1922, Notebooks: II, p. 315. 74.

Murry called the story ‘The Sheridans’ in The Scrapbook, as did Ian A. Gordon in Undiscovered Country: The New Zealand Stories of Katherine Mansfield (London: Longman, 1974).

Katherine Mansfield: In From the Margin (Louisiana State: Louisiana State University Press, 1994); Claire Tomalin, Katherine Mansfield: A Secret Life (London: Penguin, 1988), pp. 239–42. 8. Murry edited and published the following British editions of Mansfield’s writing, all published by Constable: The Doves’ Nest and Other Stories (1923); Poems of Katherine Mansfield (1923); Something Childish and Other Stories (1924); The Journal of Katherine Mansfield (1927); The Letters of Katherine Mansfield, 2 volumes (1928); The Aloe (1930); Novels and Novelists (1930); The Scrapbook of Katherine Mansfield (1937); The Collected Stories of Katherine Mansfield (1945); The Letters of Katherine Mansfield to John Middleton Murry (1951); and The Journal of Katherine Mansfield: Definitive Edition (1954). In addition, he published Mansfield’s work in the Adelphi between and January 1931: the first number of the journal featured ‘The Stanley Josephs’ (a portion of ‘The Aloe’ that had been cut in its rework- ing into ‘Prelude’), while the second number featured a poem to Leslie Heron Beauchamp, the first of the extracts from Mansfield’s journals and a drawing. 9.

F.A Lea, The Life of John Middleton Murry (London: Methuen & Co. Ltd., 1959), p. 300. The royalties on Mansfield’s books at this stage earned him an average of £500 per annum; Violet le Maistre, his second wife, was also a short story writer, and also died of tuberculosis. Murry was still drawing on le Maistre’s annuity at this time. The ‘us’ Murry mentions would appear to be Notes 207

a reference to his relationship with Mary Gamble, who would subsequently become his fourth wife. 11. Cited in Tomalin, p. 241; p. 240. 12. Tomalin, p. 227. 13. Fullbrook, p. 5. 14.

Tomalin notes that ‘Had she given the instruction to Ida [Baker], there is no doubt that it would have been carried out, and we should now know less about her, and less of her writing; but it is also worth reflecting that she could have destroyed her papers herself and insisted on Murry returning her letters, had she really been set on their destruction’ (p. 227). 17. In addition to Lawrence’s Women in Love (which partly used Mansfield as a model for the character of Gudrun Brangwen), see the following novels: Janice Kulyk Keefer, Thieves: A Novel of Katherine Mansfield (Sydney: HarperFlamingo, 2004); Linda Lappin, Katherine’s Wish (La Grande, Oregon: Wordcraft of Oregon, 2008); C.K.

In addition, see Leave All Fair, a French-New Zealand co- production that features Sir John Gielgud as an elderly Murry and Jane Birkin in a dual role as Mansfield and a young New Zealand woman, Maria, who gradually discovers the truth about Murry’s ‘editing’ of Mansfield and her work (Leave All Fair, Dir. John Reid. Pacific Films. 1985). 18. Vincent O’Sullivan, ‘Foreword’, Katherine Mansfield Studies: The Journal of the Katherine Mansfield Society, volume 1 (2009), vi–viii (p. vi). Bibliography
