    Out of Eden: Mapping Psychic Spaces in Rudyard Kipling's Fiction Elizabeth Welby Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Literature and Creative Writing University of East Anglia 30 June 2010 © This copy of the thesis has been supplied on condition that anyone who consults it is understood to recognise that its copyright rests with the author and that no quotation from the thesis, nor any information derived therefrom, may be published without the author’s prior, written consent. Part of Chapter 2 has been previously published in The Kipling Journal as ‘The Lords of Misrule and the Pleasant Isle of Aves’, June 2010. A version of part of Chapter 4 has been previously published as ‘Solar Midnight: Traversing the Abject Borderline State in Rudyard Kipling’s “The City of Dreadful Night”’, in The Domination of Fear, ed. by Mikko Canini (Amsterdam: Rodopi Press, 2010), pp. 147-177. Acknowledgements I owe debts of gratitude to many people. First and foremost, I would like to thank my supervisor, Professor John Thieme, whose dedication to my project coupled with his unfailing energy and tireless perseverance would have, I am certain, surprised even Kipling. John took over the project during the latter stages of my PhD and I am sincerely grateful for his unending enthusiasm and willingness to read, consider and constructively comment on my numerous drafts. I would also like to acknowledge The Kipling Society, both for its electronic research tool, ‘The Reader’s Guide’ and its warm human contact. Many thanks are due to, in particular, John Walker, David Page, John Radcliffe and John Lambert who replied to my frequent questions, large and small, about Kipling’s life and art with grace, good humour and speedy efficiency.

In 1907, Kipling was the first English writer ever to be awarded the Nobel Prize in literature. Mandalay (1892) - From “Barrack-Room Ballads,” a collection of poems celebrating British army life and the soldier. Opening line: By the old Moulmein Pagoda, lookin’ eastward to the sea, ... 2 MANDALAY By the old Moulmein Pagoda, lookin’ eastward to the sea, There’s a Burma girl a-settin’, and I know she thinks o’ me; For the wind is in the palm-trees, and the temple-bells they say: “Come you back, you British soldier: come you back to Mandalay!” Come you back to Mandalay, Where the old Flotilla lay; Can’t you ‘ear their paddles chunkin’ from Rangoon to Mandalay? O the road to Mandalay, Where the flyin’-fishes play, An’ the dawn comes up like thunder outer China ‘crost the Bay! ‘Er petticoat was yaller an’ ‘er little cap was green, An’ ‘er name was Supi-yaw-lat- jes’ the same as Theebaw’s Queen, An’ I seed her first a-smokin’ of a whackin’ white cheroot, An’ a-wastin’ Christian kisses on an ‘eathen idol’s foot: Bloomin’ idol made o’ mudWhat they called the Great Gawd BuddPlucky lot she cared for idols when I kissed ‘er where she stud! On the road to Mandalay, etc. When the mist was on the rice-fields an’ the sun was droppin’ slow, She’d git her little banjo an’ she’d sing “Kulla-lo-lo!” With ‘er arm upon my shoulder an’ ‘er cheek agin my cheek We uster watch the steamers an’ the hathis pilin’ teak.

  • “Patterns of Access to Land by Chinese Agricultural Investors and Their Impacts on Rural Households in Mandalay Region, Myanmar”
    Institute of Agricultural Policy and Markets (420) Department of Agricultural and Food Policy (420a) First Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Harald Grethe Second Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Regina Birner “Patterns of access to land by Chinese agricultural investors and their impacts on rural households in Mandalay Region, Myanmar” Master Thesis Submitted by: Miriam Esmaragda Romero Antonio Stuttgart-Hohenheim March, 2015 This work was financially supported by the Heinrich Böll Foundation and Foundation Fiat Panis Abstract After more than fifty years of socialist regime, Myanmar opened up their land market with the modifications to their Land Laws and Foreign Investment Law in 2011. Since then, large land concessions have increased dramatically. These land concessions are undertaken with no consultation or compensation and are characterized by natural resource exploitation. In the uplands of Central Myanmar rural farmers who still rely on cattle to plough their lands and on rainfall to irrigate their fields, are pressured to decide between receiving a fixed income by renting their farmland to Chinese investors or, preventing their land from being used for unsustainable cultivation practices driven by these investors. This study presents an analysis of the impacts that short-term land leases to Chinese agricultural investors has on farmers’ livelihoods in Chuang Kwa tract of Mandalay Region in Myanmar. This research sought to understand: a) Chinese investor’s strategies to access farmers’ land, b) estimate effects on farmers’ income and food security c) implications on land-user rights and d) implications on land and water use. This study follows the Institutional Analysis and Development (AID) Framework, applying a convergent methodology.

There is no bookmark for the table of contents. Not a big deal, you just go to the beginning and move forward when you want to find a particular poem. But it would have been nice to be able to go straight there.4 of 7 people found the following review helpful. An exciting recordingBy Mr. K.This is an exciting recording by multiple readers.

We in the West are not so logical. We do not punish the tutor for the pupil's misdeeds, and, on the other hand, those of us who escape the gallows are apt to forget to what extent our escape is due to the men who educated us. I wonder how many of the thousands of ' Old Blues ' who have passed through your class-room realise how great is the debt they owe you. Most of us knew you first as the dread Pluto of the Detention School. Without the care that in that capacity you lavished on us we should probably all be worse men than we are.
