  • Lockwood Kipling: Arts and Crafts in the Punjab and London Supported by the Friends of the V&A 14 January – 2 April 2017 Admission Free Vam.Ac.Uk/Kipling
    News Release Lockwood Kipling: Arts and Crafts in the Punjab and London Supported by the Friends of the V&A 14 January – 2 April 2017 Admission free vam.ac.uk/kipling The Victoria and Albert Museum has collaborated with the Bard Graduate Center, New York, to present the first exhibition exploring the life and work of Lockwood Kipling (1837 – 1911), an artist, teacher, curator and influential figure in the Arts and Crafts movement. Lockwood Kipling was a social campaigner for the preservation of Indian crafts, a craftsman whose terracotta panels can still be seen on the exterior of the V&A and was an illustrator of books by his son, the renowned writer Rudyard Kipling. Lockwood Kipling: Arts and Crafts in the Punjab and London explores the history of the V&A’s collections through the life of Lockwood Kipling who played a significant role in shaping the foundation collection. Highlights include paintings of the Indian section of the Great Exhibition, Lockwood Kipling’s own sketches of Indian craftspeople observed during his time living in India, objects he selected in India for the V&A, designs and illustrations for books, and furniture designed for royal residences Bagshot Park and Osborne. Lockwood Kipling, born in Yorkshire in 1837, began his career as a designer and architectural sculptor. At a young age he was inspired by a visit to the 1851 Great Exhibition at the Crystal Palace where he saw Indian objects that were later purchased as part of the founding collections of the V&A. The exhibition includes some of these best examples of Indian craftsmanship displayed there such as a bracelet of enamelled gold set with diamonds, a purple woven silk prayer carpet and a sword and helmet.

H. VA PREFACE In the course of an attempt to trace the history of the Short- Story in English it came to seem desirable, three or four years ago, to examine with some thoroughness, as the terminus ad quern, the work of Rudyard Kipling. The results of this study were rather fully set forth in the form of notes intended for class-room lectures. Revision and publication of these notes was advised by Professor Bliss Perry of Harvard College and by Professor Charles Mills Gayley of the University of Califor- nia. To these good friends of the writer this little book owes its being. Without their criticisms and suggestions, moreover, it would have been even less worthy than it is of the author with whom it is concerned. To him, to Mr. Kipling himself, thanks are due for gracious permission to take from his works the many illustrative passages with which these pages are adorned.

  • Rikki-Tikki-Tavi by Rudyard Kipling 1893
    Name: Class: Rikki-Tikki-Tavi By Rudyard Kipling 1893 Rudyard Kipling (1865-1936) was an English journalist, short-story writer, poet, and novelist. Kipling’s most popular work is his collection of short stories titled The Jungle Book. “Rikki-Tikki-Tavi” is a short story from The Jungle Book about the adventures of a young mongoose. As you read, take notes on how the characters react to danger during the story. At the hole where he went in Red-Eye called to Wrinkle-Skin. Hear what little Red-Eye saith:1 “Nag, come up and dance with death!” Eye to eye and head to head, (Keep the measure, Nag.) This shall end when one is dead; (At thy pleasure, Nag.) Turn for turn and twist for twist — (Run and hide thee, Nag.) Hah! The hooded Death has missed! (Woe2 betide3 thee, Nag!) [1] This is the story of the great war that Rikki-tikki- tavi fought single-handed, through the bath- rooms of the big bungalow in Segowlee "Yellow Mongoose" by Colin Frankland is licensed under CC BY-NC 4 cantonment. Darzee, the tailor-bird, helped him, 2.0. and Chuchundra, the musk-rat, who never comes out into the middle of the floor, but always creeps round by the wall, gave him advice; but Rikki-tikki did the real fighting. He was a mongoose, rather like a little cat in his fur and his tail, but quite like a weasel in his head and his habits. His eyes and the end of his restless nose were pink; he could scratch himself anywhere he pleased, with any leg, front or back, that he chose to use; he could fluff up his tail till it looked like a bottle-brush, and his war-cry, as he scuttled through the long grass, was: “Rikk-tikk-tikki-tikki-tchk!” One day, a high summer flood washed him out of the burrow where he lived with his father and mother, and carried him, kicking and clucking, down a roadside ditch.

  • Comparing "The Jungle Book" by Rudyard Kipling to Disney's Film Adaptations
    Abigail McMahon “I Wan’Na Be Like You”: Comparing The Jungle Books by Rudyard Kipling to Disney’s The Jungle Book (1967) and The Jungle Book (2016) Faculty Sponsor: Katherine Kittredge, Department of English Many people think that children’s literature is just for a child’s entertainment. They don’t stop to think about the moral lessons that the stories are teaching the children. Little Red Riding Hood teaches kids not to talk to strangers, The Ugly Duckling teaches kids that outer beauty wasn’t the most important thing, and Stone Soup teaches kids the importance of sharing, etc.… The Jungle Books by Rudyard Kipling is another example to the many lessons that children’s literature teaches kids. What is interesting about this set of stories is how they have been told through the years. The Jungle Books have had many adaptions and retelling of Mowgli’s tale. The most known adaption of Kipling’s stories was Disney’s animated film The Jungle Book (1967) and Disney’s newest live action version of the film, The Jungle Book (2016). The strange thing to consider is that the book and both films, while from the same source material, differ in what they offer to the audience. The original stories tell vignettes of Mowgli’s life as he grows up and what he learns from the other animals. They teach him how to be a friend to all and how to decide when a fight is worth it or not among other things. Though, a lot of the stories in Kipling’s book don’t even focus on Mowgli.

Scouting is an educational system formed of 7 combined elements, which are: learning by doing, teamwork, the symbolic frame, the personal progress system, the nature, the law and the promise of the scout and the adults’ support. The applicative pedagogic research takes place over a year and a half, following the pupils from the preparatory grade up to the end of the first grade. In this study we have involved five classes from which 41 students have already enlisted to the scouts, being the experimental lot, and their colleagues, 95, who are the control lot. All five classes are from Tîrgu-Mureș and the students enrolled in scouts became full members of the National Organization of Romanian Scouts (ONCR) - branch in Tîrgu-Mureș. The scouts have attended weekly meetings and outdoor activities, which prove their efficiency according to the statistic processing of the SPSS program.

  • Empathy in Rudyard Kipling's Jungle Books, Mirrored in Illustrations By
    Journal of Literature and Art Studies, January 2018, Vol. 8, No. 1, 1-31 doi: 10.17265/2159-5836/2018.01.001 D DAVID PUBLISHING Empathy in Rudyard Kipling’s Jungle Books, Mirrored in Illustrations by John Lockwood Kipling and Aldren Watson Norman Arthur Fischer Kent State University (Retired), Kent, Ohio, USA Rudyard Kipling’s Jungle Books depict empathy in the animal and animal-human world, and the illustrations of Rudyard’s father, John Lockwood Kipling, and the American artist and prolific illustrator, Aldren Watson, help depict that empathy. Lockwood Kipling was both influence on and interpreter of the Jungle Books, as shown above all in the development from his Beast and Man in India of 1891 through his illustrations for the 1894 Jungle Book, and 1895 Second Jungle Book, to his illustrations that appear in the rearranged stories of The Jungle Book, and Second Jungle Book in the 1897 Scribners Outward Bound (O/B) editions. A variation on Lockwood’s O/B mode of Jungle Books illustrations is found in Watson’s illustrations for the 1948 Doubleday edition, Jungle Books, which is the title I will use throughout.1 Part One details the influence of two animal empathy writers, Lockwood Kipling and Ernest Thompson Seton, on the Jungle Books. Part Two uses recent philosophical studies of empathy in the animal and human relationship. Part Three applies a German philosophy of art history to the new look of the O/B and Doubleday Jungle Books. Part Four interprets selected Jungle Books stories in the light of Parts one, two and three.

  • The Jungle Book
    The Jungle Book The Jungle Book The story A wolf family finds a young boy wandering in the jungle and adopts him, giving him the name Mowgli. He becomes part of the wolf pack, and Baloo, the old bear and Bagheera, the panther, teach him the Law of the Jungle. However, Shere Khan, the tiger, doesn’t like having a child who will become a man living in the jungle, and wants to kill him. One day Mowgli is taken prisoner by the monkeys who live in an abandoned city in the jungle. Baloo and Bagheera get help from Kaa, the python, and rescue him. As Mowgli gets older he is in great danger from Shere Khan. The one thing that all animals are afraid of is fire, so he goes to a nearby village and steals a pot with fire in it. He uses the fire to fight Shere Khan, but he knows that he will have to kill Shere Khan to be safe. As Mowgli gets older, the animals begin to realize that he can’t live with them in the jungle when he is a grown man. He returns to the village where he is adopted by a family. But Shere Khan finds him. This time Mowgli kills Shere Khan. But the villagers are now afraid of Mowgli, so they chase him away and he returns to live in the jungle. 1 Explorers 4: The Jungle Book Teacher’s Notes This page has been downloaded from www.macmillanenglish.com/younglearners © Macmillan Publishers Limited 2015 The Jungle Book Introducing the book The contents page The cover • Ask the children to turn to the contents page.
