In Black and White Part 2Legacy of Great Minds 465
조셉 러디어드 키플링Part 2 shifts focus to more personal and political stories that reflect on identity, power, and moral ambiguity within empire. Themes include generational disillusionment, racial prejudice, and bureaucratic absurdity, often told with biting satire. Characters are placed in morally complex situations, showing how colonial roles distort personal values. There’s a notable increase in introspective narration and critique of British hypocrisy. Stories like “The Amir’s Homily” and “Pagett, M.P.” expose tensions between public persona and private conscience. The tone leans more reflective, with less action and more commentary on imperial impact. Kipling presents empire not as glorious, but as deeply flawed and often tragic.
