Autorenporträt

Joseph Rudyard Kipling (1865-1936) was an English journalist, short-story writer, poet, and novelist. He was born in Bombay, in British India, which inspired much of his work. Kipling is recognized for his innovations in literature, particularly in the short story genre, but he is perhaps best known for his poetry and children's stories. His 'The Complete Poetical Works of Rudyard Kipling' illustrates the depth and variety of his verse, encompassing themes of imperialism, heroism, and the British soldier's experience, often marked by his distinctive rhythm and use of dialect. Kipling's poetry ranges from the rousing 'The Ballad of East and West' to the reflective 'If-,' a staple in British cultural and educational spheres. Kipling was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1907, the first English language writer to receive the prize, and to date its youngest recipient. His work has consistently generated both acclaim and controversy, reflective of the complexities of the imperial milieu that informed it. Kipling's literary style combined narrative momentum with a pronounced moral dimension, utilizing a plain, declarative language that belied its sophistication and latent symbolism.
