| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | "Stories by English Authors: The Orient" by Rudyard Kipling et al. is a collection of short stories likely compiled during the late 19th century. The narratives present a colorful tapestry of characters and events set against the backdrop of the Orient, specifically focusing on English perspectives and experiences in this exotic land. The collection kicks off with Kipling's renowned tale of "The Man Who Would Be King," which follows two English adventurers who aspire to become kings in a remote region of Afghanistan. The opening of this collection introduces the character of the narrator who recounts his journey on a train to Mhow and his encounter with a beggar-like man, hinting at profound themes of aspiration, identity, and the complexities of colonialism. The scene unfolds in a humorous yet poignant manner as the two characters bond over their shared wanderlust and precarious situations. The narrative sets the stage for the adventures that follow, emphasizing the blend of camaraderie and the allure of power that will define the characters’ journey into Kafiristan. This opening segment effectively establishes Kipling's trademark style, combining wit with insight into human nature and the enigmatic allure of the unknown.
