ISHU 4061 - Kipling’s Raj: The Cutting Criticism of British Ex-Patriot Society


Explores the marvelous world depicted in Kipling’s Indian Tales from the perspective of the commentary they provide on British Ex-Patriot society. Discusses how Kipling has often been viewed as a critic of Indian society, when in fact he is as critical of the British. Examines the work of Clifford Geerts and other anthropologists to provide a rounded picture of Kipling as an analyst of cultural systems.
