Descrizione
About The Book : The history of Mr. Rudyard Kipling's reputation, in this spring of 1899, lies between two phrases. In 1890 we were saying to each other, with a sense of free- masonry in a new cult: "But that is another story." Today we are exhorting each other to: "Take up the white man's burden."The value of each phrase is about the value of Mr. Kipling's reputation in 1890 and 1899, respectively. He was breaking me into harness, and I owe him a deep debt of gratitude, which I did not discharge at the time. The path of virtue was very steep, whereas the writing of verses allowed a certain play to the mind, and, unlike the filling in of reading matter, could be done as the spirit served. Now, a subeditor is not hired to write verses: he is paid to subedit.
