| | Rudyard Kipling - Bwiki |
 | | After a spell at a boarding school, the United Services College, which provided the setting for his schoolboy stories of Stalky and Co., Kipling returned to India, to Lahore (in modern-day Pakistan) where his parents were then working, in 1882. |
 | | However, Kipling's writings are considered essential reading in Indian universities (as anywhere else) for the purpose of studying imperialism itself, and inevitably "caused", in part, the emergence of post-colonial literature. |
 | | After the death of Kipling's wife in 1939, his house, "Batemans" in Burwash, East Sussex was bequeathed to the National Trust and is now a public museum dedicated to the author. |
