“…53 Nevertheless, ever self-reflexive, Mansfield believed herself 'a secretive creature to [her] last bones' and wondered whether the most intense sympathies between women were ever quite sincere. 54 She could be needy and passionate, but also scathing about her nearest friends (a trait she shared with Woolf ).…”

Before they met in 1917, Virginia Woolf envisioned a peculiar setting for her first encounter with Katherine Mansfield, the promising young writer who had 'dogged [her] steps for three years'. Intriguingly, Woolf imagined she might glimpse Mansfield, not in the drawing-room of a mutual friend or at a literary soirée, but 'on a rock or in the sea'there, 'I shall accost her'. 1 Woolf pictures Mansfield in an attitude reminiscent of Frederic Leighton's Solitude (1890), an allegorical painting of a 'woman draped in white, sitting on a rock' overlooking the sea, mentioned in Mansfield's 1915 short story, 'Autumns: II'. 2 This allusion reveals acute attention to Mansfield's early work, as well as a tendency to imagine the New Zealand outsider in a liminal position, tricked out in classical trappings but on a promontory of her own. It seems that, for Woolf, Mansfield's allure was mixed up with her air of solitude. Indeed, solitude would draw these writers together as a magnet, a fertile ground for 'accost'. Woolf 's image proved strangely prescient as if, already attuned to the sound of 'waves breaking', she had somehow anticipated Mansfield's declaration in her diary, 'All that I writeall that I amis on the border of the sea'. 3 If Woolf assumed she could identify Mansfield as a 'sign' of solitude (not merely the signature of her own work, but a citation of longstanding pictorial traditions), it is worth recognising that we, their readers, also approach these figures through the iconography of solitude developed by their contemporaries and cultural legatees. For instance, when Mansfield's husband John Middleton Murry edited her journal for posthumous publication, he presented Mansfield as the female isolate par excellence, adding subheadings like 'Femme Seule', 'Being Alone', and 'Living Alone'. 4 Similarly, in 1930, Cecil Beaton described Woolf as a fragile 'sea-anemone' that 'curls up at contact with the outer world', a marine image that influenced her popular representation for decades (despite her indignation), perhaps because it anticipated her suicide by drowning in 1941. 5

“…While situational presuppositions specify the meaning of the primary illocution, interpersonal presuppositions determine the choice of directness or indirectness as well as their linguistic arrangement as a part of conventional-communicative presuppositions (communicative competence). In particular, (7)(8) display structurally compound utterances, incorporating whimperatives, conditionals, and other means of mitigation to keep the face-saving distance while acts (9-10) occur as structurally simple turns showing close and status-free relations.…”
