Informed by recent developments in the field of ‘modern periodical studies’, the project situates Mansfield’s writings within the original historical contexts of publication, analysing her periodical contributions in conversation with those made by contemporaries such as Beatrice Hastings, T. E. Hulme, D. H. Lawrence, and Virginia Woolf. Moreover, the thesis accounts for the critical consensus that formed about Mansfield after her death, assessing how her reputation was mediated within The Adelphi. This project is based upon original archival research, providing the first critical examination of a recently discovered short story and collection of aphorisms by Mansfield. The thesis argues that the discipline of ‘modern periodical studies’ can extend our understanding of Mansfield’s work beyond the limitations of biographical analysis, opening up new perspectives and revealing hidden connections. The case study of Mansfield also allows for an examination of the twentieth-century periodical form as a space of ‘mediation’: a space that helped to enact conversations and controversies, as well as enable particular negotiations of polymorphic identity and geographical liminality. In particular, the thesis examines the periodical form as a space in which Mansfield negotiated the ambiguities of her colonial identity, positioning her writing between the global periphery and metropolitan centre. In this way, the thesis integrates ideas of the recent ‘transnational turn’ in modernist studies into the field of periodical scholarship. 5 Acknowledgements The completion of this research project would not have been possible without the financial support of the King’s College London Graduate School and the Leverhulme Trust.

M. Dostoevsky ranks highly. As - starting in 1912 (cf. Kaye 1 7). He was a presence few writers of the time could escape Katherine Mansfield and John Middleton Murry were no exception. The latter published his monograph entitled Fyodor Dostoevsky: A Critical Study in 1916, and, parallel with that major novels (Mansfield 63 5) an experience that would stay with her until the 1919 article of the Athenaeum she compares the London literary scene to the -writers declaring Kaye 19).

Department of The University of British Columbia Vancouver V6T1W5, Canada Date ii ABSTRACT For a brief period in the history of Western literature, liberated, yet disturbed, by the decline in faith, some important writers sought to "improve" upon the myth of Jesus by re-constructing his historical life in imaginative presentations of various types. This paper is concerned with such works of fiction and prose drama, not poetry, poetic drama, or conventional biography. Ernest Renan's Life of Jesus, published in 1863, provided the impetus for fictional versions of the life by such writers of the early modern period as George Moore and Bernard Shaw; Moore's The Brook Kerith was a major influence on the writers of the next generation, including D.H.

  • This Is Your Hour, and the Power of Darkness
    Introduction: ‘Th is is your hour’ Th en Jesus said unto the chief priests, and captains of the temple, and the elders, which were come to him, Be ye come out, as against a thief, with swords and staves? When I was daily with you in the temple, ye stretched forth no hands against me: but this is your hour, and the power of darkness. Luke 22:52– 3 In the foreboding political atmosphere of late 1930s Europe, several Christian activists and thinkers came together in a British- based, inter- nationally connected circle to try to understand – and resist – the apparent cultural disintegration of western society and the rise of totalitarianism. Th roughout the Second World War and its aftermath the group’s members analysed the world’s ills and off ered guidelines for post- war ‘reconstruc- tion’. Convinced that the crises of the age resulted from Christianity’s decline, they sought its ‘revolutionary’ restoration to dominance in British, European and western culture: in short, a ‘Christian society’. While there was no contemporary label for their eff orts as a whole, some of which remained out of the public eye, I call them ‘the Oldham group’, after their organiser, the missionary and ecumenist Joseph H. Oldham. Active between 1937 and 1949, the Oldham group grew out of the inter- war ecumenical movement and consisted of church- affi liated organisations, an informal discussion group (‘the Moot’) and publication projects, notably the Christian News- Letter . It was substantially Anglican with signifi cant free church (i.e. non- Anglican Protestant) membership; denominational perspectives, however, remained secondary in a search for shared, ‘Christian’ principles.

  • The Humanism of George Orwell
    THE HUMANISM OF GEORGE ORWELL APPROVED: ets^L Major Professor 3 (\ A svi JLGtCx, Minor(Professor irector of the DeparttffeprfT'oi History- Dean of the Graduate School />/A*' , Hale, Jeffrey Lee , The Humanism of George Orwell* Master of Arts (History), December, 1971, 107 pp., bibliography, 19 titles. This paper argues that George Orwell was a myth maker in the twentieth century, an age of existential perplexities. Orwell recognized that man is innately "patriotic," that the will-to-believe is part of his nature, but that the excesses of scientific analysis have disrupted the absolutes of belief. Through the Organic Metaphor, Orwell attempted to reconstruct man's faith into an aesthetic, and consequently moral, sensi- bility. Proposing to balance, and not replace, the Mechanistic Metaphor of industrial society, Orwell sought human progress along aesthetic lines, "Socialism" was his political expres- sion of the Organic Metaphor: both advocated universal integ- rity in time and space. The sources are all primary. All of Orwell's novels were used, in addition to three essay collections: Collected Essays; The Orwell Reader; and The Collected Essays, Journalism and Letters of George Orwell, Sonia Orwell and Ian Angus, editors, four volumes„ Orwell's essays and book reviews contain his best social criticisms. There are six chapters. The first chapter is the intro- duction, which includes a biographical sketch of Orwell, defi- nitions of the Organic and Mechanistic Metaphors, and a comment on the bibliography. The second chapter examines the oppression of the common man by monopolistic capitalism in colonial Burma and depression-ridden Europe, and Orwell's socialist advoca- tions.

  • A Hanging”: George Orwell’S Unheralded Literary Breakthrough
    Concentric: Literary and Cultural Studies 40.1 March 2014: 19-33 DOI: 10.6240/concentric.lit.2014.40.1.02 “A Hanging”: George Orwell’s Unheralded Literary Breakthrough John Rodden Department of Foreign Languages and Literature Tunghai University, Taiwan Abstract “A Hanging,” written under George Orwell’s birth name of Eric Blair, is a literary feat and artistic landmark in the development of “Blair” into “Orwell” that has gone little-noticed by most Orwell readers. This essay discusses the contribution of “The Hanging” to that development in close detail, and it also addresses long-standing debates about its genre and biographical statues. Keywords Burma, Peter Davison, Bernard Crick, Adelphi, Burmese Days 20 Concentric 40.1 March 2014 Eric Blair, the Sahib from Southwold Slightly more than eight decades ago, Eric Blair—a little-known, aspiring London author—published a powerful piece of short prose entitled “A Hanging.” Soon he would become better-known under the pen name “George Orwell,” which he used for the publication of his first book, Down and Out in Paris and London. Blair adopted the pseudonym in order not to embarrass his family about his forthcoming Jack London-type book on sharing Depression-era poverty with the East End tramps. “A Hanging,” which appeared in the Adelphi in August 1931, is regarded as a classic today, even if it is seldom anthologized in literature textbooks or taught in introductory rhetoric and composition courses to undergraduates. Published little more than two years after he returned from what he called “five years in an unsuitable profession” (CW 18: 319) as a policeman in British-occupied Burma, it is based on Blair-Orwell’s experience of working in the Indian Imperial Police.

  • The German Exile Literature and the Early Novels of Iris Mur- Doch
    University of Szeged Faculty of Arts Doctoral Dissertation The German Exile Literature and the Early Novels of Iris Mur- doch Dávid Sándor Szőke Supervisors: Dr. Zoltán Kelemen Dr. Anna Kérchy 2021 Acknowledgements I have a great number of people to thank for their support throughout this thesis, whether this support has been academic, financial, or spiritual. First of all, I would like to thank my supervisors, Dr Zoltán Kelemen and Dr Anna Kérchy for their unending help, encouragement and faith in me during my research. Their knowledge about the Holocaust, 20th century English woman writers and minorities has given exceptional depth to my understanding of Murdoch, Steiner, Canetti and Adler. The eye-opening essays and lectures by Dr Peter Weber about the Romanian painter and Holocaust survivor Arnold Daghani’s time in England provided a genesis for this thesis. Had it not for him, I would not have thought about putting Murdoch’s thinking in the context of Cen- tral European refugee literature and culture during and after the Second World War. This thesis owes much to the 2017 Holocaust Conference in Szeged (19 October) and the 2019 International Holocaust Conference in Halle (14-16 November). I would like to express my gratitude to the March of the Living Hungary, the Holocaust Memorial Centre Budapest, the Memory Point of Hódmezővásárhely, the synagogues of Szeged and Hódmezővásárhely, Professor Werner Nell (Martin-Luther-Universität Halle-Wittenberg), Professor Thomas Bremer (Martin-Luther-Universität Halle-Wittenberg), Professor Sue Vice (University of Shef- field), and Dr Zoltán Kelemen for making these events possible. During my PhD, as part of the Erasmus ++ programme I spent an entire year at Martin- Luther-Universität Halle-Wittenberg, where I made a great deal of research about the German coming to terms with the past.

LAWRENCE, DOSTOEVSKY, AND THE LAST TEMPTATION BY CHRIST Catherine Brown Lawrence’s fraught and rivalrous relationship with Fyodor Dostoevsky was throughout his life connected with his fraught and rivalrous relationship to Christ. Both authors were, to use Murry’s term about Lawrence, “Christ-haunted”, and both were likened to Christ Himself. Lawrence criticised Dostoevsky for endorsing what he perceived to be one of Christ’s false doctrines - albeit only with the mental, willed, and unartistic part of his divided self. In response to Koteliansky and Murry’s translation of Dostoevsky’s Pages from the Journal of an Author, he wrote to Koteliansky in December 1916: How is it that these foul-living people ooze with such loving words. “Love thy neighbour as thyself” – well and good, if you’ll hate thy neighbour as thyself. I can’t do with this creed based on self-love, even when the self-love is extended to cover the whole of humanity. – No, when he was preaching, Dostoevsky was a rotten little stinker. In his art he is bound to confess himself lusting in hate and torture. But his “credo” - ! my God, what filth! (3L 53) 2 Lawrence made his final paired meditation on Dostoevsky and Christ just five weeks before his death, in an eight-page Introduction to Koteliansky’s translation of ‘The Grand Inquisitor’ episode of Dostoevsky’s 1879-80 novel The Brothers Karamazov (itself completed only four months before Dostoevsky’s death).
