Comments on: Our Manifesto http://savetheshortstory.org Fri, 18 May 2012 07:09:19 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.2.2 By: Luke http://savetheshortstory.org/our-manifesto/#comment-8215 Luke Wed, 20 May 2009 17:45:20 +0000 http://savetheshortstory.org/our-manifesto/#comment-8215 While I am inclined to agree that America has contributed massively to the short story genre: Nathaniel Hawthorn, Edgar Allan Poe, Mark Twain, Ernest Hemingway just to name only a few. The short story genre is underpinned by the English language of all five continents of our planet and the nourishment of the many cultural attitudes that come from the English language. Where would the short story be without; D.H. Lawrence, Rudyard Kipling and Charles Dickens (English), Elizabeth Bowen (Irish), Robert Louis Stevenson and Sir Walter Scott (Scottish), Joseph Conrad (Naturalized British), Katherine Mansfield (New Zealand), Morley Callaghan (Canadian).
