Rudyard Kipling – Редьярд Киплинг

Rudyard Kipling

Rudyard Kipling (1865-1936) was born in Bombay, but educated in England.

In 1882, he returned to India, where he worked for Anglo-Indian newspapers.

His literary career began in 1886.

A prolific writer, he achieved fame quickly. Kipling was the poet of the British Empire.

His “Barrack Room Ballads” (1892) were written for, as much as about, the common soldier.

In 1894, appeared his “Jungle Book” which became a children’s classic all over the world. “Kim” (1901), the story of Kim-ball O’Hara and his adventures in the Himalayas, is perhaps his most felicitous work.

Other works include “The Second Jungle Book” (1895), “The Seven Seas” (1896), “The Day’s Work” (1898), “Just So Stories” (1902), “Actions and Reactions” (1909), and “Limits and Renewals” (1932).

During the First World War Kipling

wrote some propaganda books. His collected poems appeared in 1933.

Kipling was the recipient of many honorary degrees and other awards.

In 1926 he received the Gold Medal of the Royal Society of Literature, which only Scott, Meredith, and Hardy had been awarded before him.

Редьярд Киплинг

Редьярд Киплинг (1865-1936) родился в Бомбее, но образование получил в Англии.

В 1882 году он вернулся в Индию* где работал в англо-индийских газетах.

Его литературная карьера началась в 1886 г.

Будучи плодотворным писателем, он быстро стал известным. Киплинг был поэтом Британской Империи.

Его “Казарменные баллады” (1892) были написаны для простых солдат и о них.

В 1894 г. появилась “Книга джунглей”, которая стала детской классикой во всем мире. “Ким” (1901), история Кимболла О’Хари и его приключений в Гималаях,

– самая удачная его работа.

Среди его произведений – “Вторая книга джунглей” (1895), “Семь морей” (1896), “Работа за день” (1898), “Сказки просто так” (1902), “Поступки и реакции” (1909) и “Лимиты и обновления” (1932).

Во время Первой мировой войны Киплинг написал несколько пропагандистских книг. Сборник его стихотворений увидел мир в 1933 г.

Киплингу было присвоено множество почетных званий и наград.

В 1926 году он получил Золотую Медаль Королевского литературного общества, которую до него получили только Скотт, Мередит и Гарди.
