"Rudyard Kipling (1865-1936) is among the most popular, acclaimed
and controversial of writers in English. His books have sold in
great numbers, and he remains the youngest writer to have won the
Nobel Prize in Literature. Many associate Kipling with poems such
as 'If-', his novel Kim, his pioneering use of the short story form
and such works for children as the Just So Stories. For others,
though, Kipling is the very symbol of the British Empire and a
belligerent approach to other peoples and races. This Companion
explores Kipling's main themes and texts, the different genres in
which he worked and the various phases of his career. It also
examines the 'afterlives' of his texts in postcolonial writing and
through adaptations of his work. With a chronology and guide to
further reading, this book serves as a useful introduction for
students of literature and of Empire and its after effects"--
