1897ref. 211Kipling Rudyard. Hindu Tales In Black and White. Translated from English by V.N. Ofrosimov. St. Petersburg 1897 107 pp. 22 x 15 cm. Kipling is the most "Russian" of all Western writers of the 20th century not in terms of character or worldview but in terms of the intensity of his influence. No other country in the world loved The Jungle Book so much the best cartoon based on it was made in the USSR the best music for the radio play was written by Gubaidulina herself children of all Soviet generations played Mowgli Bagheera and Shere Khan and by the way we correctly adjusted the gender of Kipling's two main characters. The cat who walks by himself became a cat in our version and the fairy tale became more accurate funnier and more sarcastic and Bagheera who was also a brave young man in Kipling's version turned into a cunning queen of the jungle sometimes protecting Mowgli sometimes in love with him; a kind of Catherine with a young favorite. But most importantly Kipling became the foremost poet in Russia. At the same time he is rather marginal in England and even more so in the United States where incidentally his favorite was Eliot an avant-gardist and certainly not an imperialist; "A bad poet who writes excellent poems" he said of Kipling and this is a very accurate description. Despite Kipling's popularity in the USSR translations of his works began long before the October Revolution and the establishment of Soviet power. The first translations appeared in 1896 and at the beginning of the 20th century several new translations were published each year. In 1916 an 11-volume collection of his works was released. The book on offer Hindu Tales 1897 is one of the first translations of Kipling into Russian. It is in decent condition with a worn cover from the era and the stamp of a private collector.

On penserait à la vie militaire si l'on n'avait pas connu aussi aux premières années de ce siècle la vie d'un élève interne dans un lycée de préfecture française. Tout ce qu'évoque le mot « caserne » c'est là que je l'ai connu à 10 ans au lycée Pothier rue Jeanne d'Arc : un juriste une rue noble et froide droite et raide comme la justice tirée d'un rigoureux cordeau entre la rue Royale et la cathédrale Sainte-Croix. J'y ai pour consolation le goût très vif de la camaraderie et le prodigieux trésor qu'est la lecture » qui lui ouvre un autre univers. Jules Verne l'ennuie il s'enthousiasme pour Sans famille d'Hector Malot avant de se plonger dans London ou Kipling. in Maurice Genevoix Chemins de mémoire.
