Abstract

The paper highlights the didactic purpose of The Jungle Book (1894) and The Second Jungle Book (1895) by stating that while they are primarily children’s books, they are secondarily educational species and that Kipling is being didactic as well as entertaining in the sense that he takes his two Books as a warning to British imperialists against boastful arrogance, which would lower them to the level of those unworthy who are “without the Law” (Knoe, 379). The verses in the paper are set at the beginning to raise the kinds of issues this paper will explore. They demonstrate that the assertion of irreconcilable difference dividing East and West is immediately qualified: the encounter between men, between "two strong men", can transcend cultural difference. One can note that Kipling here asserts his faith in enabling virtue of fraternal or co-operating bonds. The paper highlights the didactic purpose of The Jungle Book (1894) and The Second Jungle Book (1895) by stating that while they are primarily children’s books, they are secondarily educational species and that Kipling is being didactic as well as entertaining in the sense that he takes his two Books as a warning to British imperialists against boastful arrogance, which would lower them to the level of those unworthy who are “without the Law” (Knoe, 379). This paper was published in a conference at The Faculty of Arts Ain Shams University 2003 .
