On the Creation Characteristics of Katherine Mansfield's Short Stories

From the analysis, we can conclude Katherine Mansfield inherited and developed Tchekhov's creation methods. Except the shift-perspective, the wonderful use of interior monologue, symbolism and the relationship between time and space can be found initially from the examples in this article. These innovations caused her to become a pioneer of modernism from the successor of realism.
