Inhalt The Jungle Books The Second Jungle Book THE JUNGLE BOOKS There is magic in the telling of these stories, magic too in these animals, whether of the jungle or of the far north, who understand things better than do we men. Kipling must havt; spent a long time studying their habits. He would have heard the stories told by the shikaris; he would have watched the elephants and noted the behaviour of the mahouts, as he lay on his back on the trail of the gun down in the lines. In a friend's bungalow, perhaps, he nüght have heard about the cobra in the bathroom and been shown the place where it was killed. Perhaps Rikki-Tikki-Tavi, the mongoose, came and sat on his shoulder and shared his breakfast. RUDYARD KIPLING In the summer of 1892 Kipling settled down in Vermont where his wife's family had long been established. During the next four years he wrote a number of stories, many of which were of a quality which only he could reach. It: was then that he wrote In the Rukh, in which Mowgli makes his first appearance. It was a propitious inspiration, for from it sprang the two jungle Books in which, to my mind, his great and varied gifts found their most brilliant expression. They show his wonderful talent for telling a story, they have a delicate humour and they are romantic and plausible. The device of making animals talk is as old as Aesop's fables, and for all I know, much older, and La Fontaine, as we know, employed it with charm and wit, but I think no one has performed the difficult feat of persuading the reader that it is as natural for animals to speak as for human beings more triumphantly than Kipling has done in The jungle Books.-From Somerset Maugham's Choice of Kipling's Prose.
