Rudyard Kipling Collected Works. In 6 volumes
Format: FB2, RTF, eBook (originally computer)
Rudyard Kipling
Release year: 2007
Genre: Classical and children's prose, poetry and dramaturgy
Publisher: "Terra-Book Club". Moscow
Russian language
Number of books: 12 books
Description: Joseph Rudyard Kipling (1865 - 1936) - An outstanding English writer, poet, playwright, journalist and short story writer, classic of world literature, Freemason, Nobel Prize winner in literature, who owes his fame primarily to romance, which fanned his poetry collections; one of the most popular English writers, who had a strong influence on public opinion in Western countries and gave children around the world stories about Mowgli and Riki-Tiki-Tavi.
In 1907, Kipling became the first Englishman to win the Nobel Prize in Literature. In the same year, he receives awards from the universities of Paris, Strasbourg, Athens and Toronto; He was also awarded honorary degrees from Oxford, Cambridge, Edinburgh and Durham Universities.
During World War I, he worked for the Red Cross. After the war, he becomes a member of the War Graves Commission. It was he who chose the biblical phrase "Their names will live forever" on the obelisks of memory.
The rich language of the works of Rudyard Kipling, full of metaphors, has made a great contribution to the treasury of the English language.
One of the most complete collected works of D.R. Kipling, released in recent years. It includes all of the author's novels, as well as major collections of short stories. The main disadvantage of this series is that the collection includes (apparently without editing) pre-revolutionary translations, whose level ranges from decent (E. Chistyakova-Ver) to extremely low (V. Pogodin), but in any case is significantly inferior to the level of translations of the Soviet time."
Volume 1
The first volume of the collected works included the novel "Kim" (1901), written by Kipling at the height of his fame and being a kind of farewell word addressed to India, and the collection of stories "Three Soldiers", dedicated to the "builders of the empire" - ordinary people in soldier's uniforms, privates colonial army.
Volume 2
The second volume of the collected works includes: the novel "Brave Sailors" (1897), one of the few works of the writer, which is based on American material: the story of the rebirth of the son of an American millionaire after communicating with simple sea workers; in many respects the autobiographical novel "Light went out" (1890), dedicated to the life of a talented military artist; as well as the story "The Story of Badalia Herodsfoot". The creative style of the writer is distinguished by the rigid accuracy of prose, conciseness, and brilliant style.
Volume 3
The third volume of the collected works includes: two "Jungle Books", the most popular works of the writer, in the center of which is the human cub Mowgli, who grew up among animals, as well as a collection of stories "In mountainous India". Kipling's ability to capture something exciting and high in everyday life, the truthfulness and deep originality of his talent were highly appreciated by I. Bunin, A. Kuprin, M. Gorky and other Russian writers.
Volume 4
The fourth volume of the collected works includes collections of short stories: "Rickshaw Ghost", written in the manner of a "terrible story" with a mysterious content, not inferior in intensity to the stories of Edgar Allan Poe; "Tales and Legends" and "Works of the Day", which are among the best written by the master of an elegant realistic and fantastic novel, who also has a unique manner of talking to children.
Volume 5
The fifth volume of the collected works includes: the novel "Naulaka" (1891), on the pages of which the meeting of the exotic East and the American West takes place - the novel tells about the search for the legendary treasure of Naulaki; as well as the collection of tales "Old England", the folk basis of which, coupled with the traditional manner of the old English essay, make Kipling a writer inexhaustible in the field of form.
Volume 6
The sixth volume of the collected works includes: "Indian stories", the play "History of Gedsbay", the collection "The most amazing story in the world and other stories". The world of Kipling's stories is complex and rich, representing in fact an encyclopedia of the plot experience of the best English and American storytellers of the 19th century. They are characterized by psychology, innovation, which consists in the introduction of new layers of life into the fabric of the narrative, and a kind of naturalism.
