Sobre l'autor

Rudyard Kipling (1865–1936), an English journalist, short-story writer, poet, and novelist, was born in Bombay, British India, and is often considered one of the major innovators of the art of the short story. His children's books are enduring classics of children's literature, and his best-known works include 'The Jungle Book' (1894), 'Kim' (1901), and the poem 'If—' (1910). Kipling is also known for 'Just So Stories' (1902) and 'The Man Who Would Be King' (1888), among other stories. His literary style is characterized by his experiences in India and his vivid imagination, reflecting the imperialism and the milieu of the British Empire in his era. In fiction, he made significant contributions to the genre of the spy novel and the celebration of British imperial adventure. Furthermore, his poetic works, such as 'Gunga Din' and 'The White Man's Burden,' have elicited both acclaim for their technical mastery and criticism for their colonial attitudes. In 1907, Kipling was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature, becoming the first English-language writer to receive the prize, and to date he remains its youngest recipient. His complete works showcase the breadth of Kipling's literary prowess and continue to be studied and appreciated for their narrative artistry and cultural insights.
