Synopsis

Exploring Kipling’s faith of courage and toil, and how it shaped his most enduring poems.

This critical study examines how Mr. Kipling’s work expresses a simple, masculine code of religion grounded in action, loyalty, and perseverance. It argues that his world is intensely human and driven by shared bonds among soldiers, sailors, and explorers, rather than abstract theology or church life. Through close readings of poems and stories, the book shows how bravery, duty, and fellowship become a practical creed that motivates daring deeds and steadfast endurance.

- Learn how courage and toil define Kipling’s spiritual map and guide his characters.
- See why the author’s religion is framed as masculine, immediate, and action‑oriented.
- Discover the key poems and figures cited as central to this faith, from Gunga Din to Tomlinson.
- Understand the idea of a universal fellowship that crosses race and border lines.

Ideal for readers of literary criticism and fans of Kipling who want a focused take on the religious undercurrents in his verse and stories.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
