Introduction and Notes by R.T. Jones, Honorary Fellow of the
University of York. This edition of the poetry of Rudyard Kipling
(1865-1936) includes all the poems contained in the Definitive
Edition of 1940. In his lifetime, Kipling was widely regarded as
the unofficial Poet Laureate, and he was awarded the Nobel Prize
for Literature in 1907. His poetry is striking for its many rhythms
and popular forms of speech, and Kipling was equally at home with
dramatic monologues and extended ballads. He is often thought of as
glorifying war, militarism, and the British Empire, but an
attentive reading of the poems does not confirm that view. This
edition reprints George Orwell's hard-hitting account of Kipling's
poems, first published in 1942, and generally regarded as one of
the most important contributions to critical discussion of Kipling.
