The Poetry of Kipling: Character, Craftsmanship, Contrasts

—Linda Tania Abrams

Course Description:

A consummate yet controversial craftsman, Rudyard Kipling was a Nobel Laureate and ascerbic social critic. Though an old-school English gentleman, his verse was beloved by common folk, and ranged from social satire to passionate paeans to human greatness. His "If—" was Rand’s favorite poem. This dramatic reading will convey the character and context of Kipling’s best poetry. Linda Tania Abrams has been an internationally acclaimed performer for over a decade and is the founder and director of Past Times With Good Company, a professional living-history troupe.
