1/9/2005		Katherine Mansfield: "Risk Anything!" On this day in 1923 Katherine Mansfield died of tuberculosis at the age of thirty-four. Near the end Mansfield scoffed at "my little stories like birds bred in cages," and admitted to having had a lifelong "chaos within." Her biographers have agreed with the chaos, and the literary historians are unequivocal about the accomplishment: "A symbol of liberation, innovation and unconventionality. Her life was new, her manners and dress was new, her art was new."

This site provides the entry on Mansfield in the "Oxford Companion to New Zealand Literature." The material is written by eminent Mansfield scholars, and there are many links -- among them, to the library which has "a tress of Mansfield's chestnut brown hair, half a metre in length, which was found wrapped in a linen handkerchief."
