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. 410 0$aCambridge companions to literature. 608 $aAufsatzsammlung. 676 $a828/.809 686 $aLIT004120$2bisacsh 702 $aBooth$b Howard J$g(Howard John),$f1969- 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996210311803316 996 $aThe Cambridge companion to Rudyard Kipling$92493846 997 $aUNISA 999 $aThis Record contains information from the Harvard Library Bibliographic Dataset, which is provided by the Harvard Library under its Bibliographic Dataset Use Terms and includes data made available by, among others the Library of Congress
