  • Kipling, the Story-Writer
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFO! AT LOS ANGELES SEMICENTENNIAL PUBLICATIONS OF THE UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA 1868-1918 42 1 6 KIPLING THE STORY-WRITER BY WALTER MORRIS HART UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA PRESS BERKELEY 1918 28412 TO A. B. 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.

  • My Boy Jack Book Summary Rudyard Kipling: Poems Study Guide
    my boy jack book summary Rudyard Kipling: Poems Study Guide. Although Kipling is perhaps most famous for his short stories like "The Jungle Book," he was just as famed for his verse as his prose. His work, which is staggering in number, consists of such major poems as "If", "The White Man's Burden", "The Ballad of East and West", "Gunga Din", "Mandalay", and "Danny Deever". He wrote poetry throughout his life and published in newspapers, magazines, and collections and anthologies. Kipling's reputation has shifted throughout the years; more contemporary readers and scholars find many of his poems difficult to love or respect due to their embrace and sometimes-promulgation of the imperialist, racist, and misogynistic attitudes that prevailed during the day. However, during his own time he garnered more respect and a great deal of popularity. T.S. Eliot wrote of him: "[He had] an immense gift for using words, an amazing curiosity and power of observation with his mind and with all his senses, the mask of the entertainer, and beyond that a queer gift of second sight, of transmitting messages from elsewhere, a gift so disconcerting when we are made aware of it that thenceforth we are never sure when it is not present: all this makes Kipling a writer impossible wholly to understand and quite impossible to belittle." One of Britain's most famous writers, E.M. Forster, took up the subject of Kipling's poetry in a very insightful 1909 lecture. He began by expressing the assumption that Kipling was dull and vulgar, and countered that with his own perspective that "putty, brass and paint are there, but with them is fused, at times inextricably, a precious metal." Forster saw Kipling as very much "alive" and lauded him for this.
