6. Verse imperial
Which British writer was known as the “poet of Empire”?
A) W.H. Auden
B) Robert Browning
C) Rudyard Kipling ü
D) Stephen Spender
Rudyard Kipling (1865-1936) occupied a unique place in English literature. His myth-tinged tales of England, India and Africa retain their magic over the years; while his stirring poems and stories of British colonial life take a more nuanced view of empire than is sometimes acknowledged.
