His dissertation was the Kipling Collections in the James McG. Stewart and the University of Texas Libraries: An Appraisal of Resources for Literary Investigation . He also edited the monumental and pioneering Rudyard Kipling: A Bibliographic Catalogue (Toronto: Dalhousie University Press and the University of Toronto Press, 1959), by James McG. Stewart. After receiving his Ph.D., Yeats taught for many years at Lamar University in Beaumont, Texas.

    Extractions: The renowned British poet, novelist, and short story writer Rudyard Kipling (1865-1936) discovered when he was seven that reading was a delight. While attending the United Services College of Westward Ho! in Devonshire, he also discovered the pleasure of writing. His talents were soon recognized by the school's headmaster, who gave the boy access to his extensive personal library. Rudyard was appointed editor of the school paper and soon became the acknowledged school bard. At the age of sixteen, Kipling rejoined his family in India, where he obtained the position of assistant editor of the Civil and Military Gazette in Lahore. There Rudyard threw himself into the exacting grind of daily newspaper writing. Encouraged by the editors to contribute his own impressions of Anglo-Indian society, Rudyard produced some witty and vivid pieces. Readers responded with enthusiasm. The poems and sketches were re-issued in the form of cheap paperbacks suitable for reading on the train. Kipling's Railway Library series carried the name of Rudyard Kipling across the breadth of India. At the early age of twenty-four, Kipling was widely acclaimed the best English writer in the colony.

88. RUDYARD KIPLING AND MUSIC By Philip Scowcroft: MusicWeb(UK)
    Article by Philip Scowcroft on the music inspired by Kipling with the incidental music written for screen adaptations of his prose works.  
    http://www.musicweb-international.com/classrev/2001/June01/Kipling.htm
    
    Extractions: RUDYARD KIPLING AND MUSIC. Rudyard Kipling (1865-1936) was the bard of [the British] Empire in all its manifestations. As he was born in India it is natural that many of his writings, poetry or prose, feature the sub-continent, but others recall the men, soldiers, sailors and so on, which bound the Empire together and If , apparently once set to music by Bantock , personifies the "stiff upper-lip" which built the Empire. This is not to say that Kipling was jingoistic. His poem Recessional appears indeed to foretell the decline of Empire. Both Sullivan and Elgar considered setting this to music, although neither got round to doing so (1); one may think, however, that Elgar 's Second Symphony catches its spirit faithfully enough. Many composers, Sullivan and Elgar included, set Kipling's words but we start this doubtless incomplete, fragmentary even, survey of music inspired by Kipling with the incidental music written for screen adaptations of his prose works. Curiously, perhaps, nearly all of them were American and most of these had scores composed by some of the all-time greats among Hollywood's music moguls: Captains Courageous Franz Waxman Wee Willie Winkie Alfred Newman Gunga Din Newman again)

    Extractions: Biographical notes by Blake Wilfong "Words are, of course, the most powerful drug used by mankind." British author Joseph Rudyard Kipling (1865-1936) needs no introduction. Winner of the 1907 Nobel prize in literature, he is today remembered for "Gunga Din" (1888), The Jungle Book Captains Courageous Just So Stories Kim (1905), and other imaginative and rousing works of fiction and poetry. Kipling's forays beyond the boundaries of conventional literature usually involved fantasy or the supernatural. But the few times he wrote genuine science fiction, the results rivaled his more famous works. His greatest contribution to the genre was the construction of a richly detailed "hard" SF world based on linked stories ("With the Night Mail" and "As Easy as A.B.C.") and brought to life with fabricated advertisements, news bulletins, letters, songs, etc. No one had done this before. Modern science fiction authorsespecially screenwriterscontinue to follow Kipling's lead. Though Kipling lived most of his life in England, he was born in and spent many of his childhood and early adult years in India (then part of the British Empire). In 1892 he married an American, then traveled the world, lived briefly in Vermont, and finally settled in England in 1903. His firsthand knowledge of other lands and their peoples, combined with meticulous research, lent realism to his writings. Upon his death, Kipling was given a burial in Westminster Abbeyone of England's highest honors.

90. Heretics -- On Mr. Rudyard Kipling And Making The World Small
    Chapter 3 of G. K. Chesterton s book Heretics in which he writes about Kipling.  
    http://www.cse.dmu.ac.uk/~mward/gkc/books/heretics/ch3.html
    
    Extractions: There is no such thing on earth as an uninteresting subject; the only thing that can exist is an uninterested person. Nothing is more keenly required than a defence of bores. When Byron divided humanity into the bores and bored, he omitted to notice that the higher qualities exist entirely in the bores, the lower qualities in the bored, among whom he counted himself. The bore, by his starry enthusiasm, his solemn happiness, may, in some sense, have proved himself poetical. The bored has certainly proved himself prosaic. We might, no doubt, find it a nuisance to count all the blades of grass or all the leaves of the trees; but this would not be because of our boldness or gaiety, but because of our lack of boldness and gaiety. The bore would go onward, bold and gay, and find the blades of grass as splendid as the swords of an army. The bore is stronger and more joyous than we are; he is a demigodnay, he is a god. For it is the gods who do not tire of the iteration of things; to them the nightfall is always new, and the last rose as red as the first. Now, the first and fairest thing to say about Rudyard Kipling is that he has borne a brilliant part in thus recovering the lost provinces of poetry. He has not been frightened by that brutal materialistic air which clings only to words; he has pierced through to the romantic, imaginative matter of the things themselves. He has perceived the significance and philosophy of steam and of slang. Steam may be, if you like, a dirty by-product of science. Slang may be, if you like, a dirty by-product of language. But at least he has been among the few who saw the divine parentage of these things, and knew that where there is smoke there is firethat is, that wherever there is the foulest of things, there also is the purest. Above all, he has had something to say, a definite view of things to utter, and that always means that a man is fearless and faces everything. For the moment we have a view of the universe, we possess it.

    Extractions: Poets: A B C D E F G H ... Y Z O H, East is East and West is West, and never the twain shall meet, Till Earth and Sky stand presently at God's great Judgement Seat; But there is neither East nor West, Border, nor Breed, nor Birth, When two strong men stand face to face, tho' they come from the ends of the earth! Kamal is out with twenty men to raise the Border side, And he has lifted the Colonel's mare that is the Colonel's pride: He has lifted her out of the stable-door between the dawn and the day, And turned the calkins upon her feet, and ridden her far away. Then up and spoke the Colonel's son that led a troop of the Guides: ``Is there never a man of all my men can say where Kamal hides?'' Then up and spoke Mahommed Khan, the son of the Ressaldar, ``If ye know the track of the morning-mist, ye know where his pickets are. At dusk he harries the Abazai-at dawn he is into Borair, But he must go by Fort Bukloh to his own place to fare, So if ye gallop to Fort Bukloh as fast as a bird can fly, By the favour of God ye may cut him off ere he win to the Tonuge of Jagai

    Extractions: home many pasts evidence www.history ... about us Go send your sons to exile To serve your captives' need To wait in heavy harness Your new-caught, sullen peoples, Half devil and half child In patience to abide To veil the threat of terror And check the show of pride; By open speech and simple An hundred times made plain And reap his old reward: The blame of those ye better The cry of hosts ye humour (Ah slowly) to the light: "Why brought ye us from bondage, Have done with childish days- The lightly proffered laurel, The easy, ungrudged praise. Comes now, to search your manhood Through all the thankless years, Cold-edged with dear-bought wisdom, The judgment of your peers! (Garden City, New York: Doubleday, 1929).
