Hardcover. Etat : new. Hardcover. Unlike his contemporaries Virginia Woolf and Henry James, Kipling always denied he was a critic. But his letters, speeches, and stories are full of comments on writing and writers. This collection, including many previously unpublished private letters and papers, details Kipling's response to the commercialisation of literature and the emerging role of the writer as celebrity in the turbulent literary world of the 1890s and beyond. They reveal a mind intensely concerned with questions of literary value, with language and imagination, with truth, realism, and romanticism. Kipling's fame made him a significant spokesperson for important segments of the reading public - the soldiers, engineers, and functionaries central to Britain's imperial expansion. He profoundly influenced English literary language and our perception of English national character. This book offers new access to the private and public history of a writer whose continuing influence is still a matter of fierce controversy. Kipling always denied he was a critic, but this collection of letters and papers, many published for the first time, establishes his engagement with critical issues. Kipling influenced our understanding of English literature and national character, and this book examines the private and public history of a still fiercely controversial writer.
