作为英国第一位诺贝尔文学奖得主,约瑟夫·鲁德亚德·吉卜林的一生都与大英帝国紧密相连,他的作品大都渗透了浓浓的帝国意识,因此,吉卜林获得了“帝国诗人”、“帝国鼓手”等称号。但是,时移世易,他露骨的帝国立场使他受到冷落,他的名字逐渐变得陌生。上世纪90年代以来,随着后殖民主义文化批评的兴起,在沉寂近百年后,学界对吉卜林再一次兴趣盎然,各种学术刊物上,吉卜林的名字出现得频繁起来。2007年,为了纪念他获得诺贝尔奖一百周年,英国特别拍摄了根据其自传改编的电影《我的儿子杰克》。 As the first British Nobel Prize laureate in literature, Joseph Ruddard Kipling’s life is closely linked with the British Empire, most of his works permeate the deep sense of empire, so Kipling won “Empire poet”, “Empire drummer” and other titles. However, as time passed by, his explicit empire position left him cold-hearted and his name became unfamiliar. Since the 1990s, with the rise of post-colonialist cultural criticism, the academic community became interested in Kipling again nearly a hundred years after its silence. In various academic journals, Kipling’s name appeared frequently. In 2007, in honor of his 100th anniversary of winning the Nobel Prize, the United Kingdom made a special film “My Son, Jack,” based on her autobiography.
