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.

Kurzgeschichten von Rudyard Kipling aus dem Sammelband "A Day's Work": 1. Die Br ckenbauer (The Bridge-Builders) In dieser technisch sehr detaillierten Erz hlung beschreibt Kipling den Bau einer Eisenbahnbr cke ber den "heiligen Fluss" Ganges. Als die Br cke kurz vor der Fertigstellung und Einweihung steht, gef hrdet ein Hochwasser die Konstruktion. Der britische Chefingenieur setzt alles daran, um sein Lebenswerk zu retten, wird jedoch zusammen mit seinem indischen Vorabeiter auf eine kleine Flussinsel abgetrieben. Unter dem Einfluss von Opium hat er Visionen von den hinduistischen Gottheiten. Die beiden werden gerettet, die Br cke bersteht die Flut. 2. Ein schreitender Abgesandter (A Walking Delegate) Dies ist die einzige Geschichte in diesem Band, welche nicht bersetzt, sondern inhaltlich nur erkl rt wurde. Der Grund ist, dass Kipling in dieser Erz hlung gro z gig verschiedene amerikanische Dialekte verwendet, welche nicht ohne weiteres auf europ ische Verh ltnisse bertragen werden k nnen. Die Geschichte spielt auf einer Farm in Vermont, der Heimat von Kiplings amerikanischer Frau Carrie. Sie handelt von einem gelben Pferd, das die anderen Pferde aufzuwiegeln versucht. 3. Das Schiff, das sich selbst einschliff (The Ship That Found Herself) Ein schottisches Frachtschiff unternimmt seine Jungfernfahrt von Liverpool nach New York. In dieser ebenfalls sehr technischen Geschichte sprechen die diversen Schiffsbauteile miteinander, um sich aufeinander einzuschleifen. 4. Das Grab seiner Ahnen (The Tomb Of His Ancestors) Diese Erz hlung spielt wieder im kolonialen Indien. Ein junger britischer Offizier, der seinem verstorbenen Gro vater u erlich sehr hnlich sieht, kehrt nach Indien zur ck. Aufgrund der hnlichkeit halten ihn die Einheimischen f r eine Wiedergeburt seines dort bestatteten Gro vaters, der Enkel merkt davon jedoch lange Zeit nichts.

"Stalky & Co." is a novel about adolescent boys at a British boarding school. Reflecting its origins, the novel is episodic in nature, with self-contained chapters. It is set at an unnamed school referred to as the College or the Coll., which is based on the United Services College in Devon, which Kipling attended. The character Beetle, one of the main trio, is partly based on Kipling himself, while the charismatic character Stalky is based on Lionel Dunsterville, M'Turk is based on George Charles Beresford and Mr King is based on William Carr Crofts. "Kim" is and adventure novel about the orphaned son of an Irish soldier and a poor Irish mother who have both died in poverty. Living a vagabond existence in India under British rule in the late 19th century, Kim earns his living by begging and running small errands on the streets of Lahore. "Captains Courageous" follows the adventures of fifteen-year-old Harvey Cheyne Jr., the spoiled son of a railroad tycoon, after he is saved from drowning by a Portuguese fisherman in the north Atlantic. "The Light That Failed" is a psychological novel. Most of the novel is set in London, but many important events throughout the story occur in Sudan or India. The Light that Failed follows the life of Dick Heldar, a painter who goes blind. "Naulahka: A Story of East and West", is an adventure novels, the story of a priceless Indian jewel.
