The First Jungle Book (1894) is a collection of stories by the English author Rudyard Kipling. Most of the characters are animals such as Shere Khan the tiger and Baloo the bear, though a principal character is the boy or "man-cub" Mowgli, who is raised in the jungle by wolves. The stories are set in a forest in India; one place mentioned repeatedly is "Seonee" (Seoni), in the central state of Madhya Pradesh. A major theme in the book is abandonment followed by fostering, as in the life of Mowgli, echoing Kipling's own childhood.

Un escritor consagrado conoce a un muchacho con aspiraciones literarias, pero con talento escaso. Al hacerse amigos, el escritor descubre que el muchacho tiene visiones de sus vidas pasadas: es un esclavo griego, un remero de galeotes y el ayudante de un vikingo aguerrido. Al protagonista no le queda más que imponerse a una tarea sagrada: escribir «el cuento más hermoso del mundo». Fábula encantadora sobre el conocimiento y la vocación literaria, y una de las grandes joyas de Rudyard Kipling, uno de los mejores escritores ingleses del siglo XX.

Rudyard Kipling was one of the most popular writers of prose and poetry in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. He was awarded the Nobel prize for literature in 1907. Born in Bombay on December 30, 1865, both he and his sister were sent back to England when he was five, as was the custom of the British ruling elite in India. The ill-treatment and cruelty by the couple they boarded with in Portsmouth had one useful effect that Kipling himself suggested; it gave him an early impetus for a literary life.

La protagonista di questa racconto dalle tinte futuristiche è una nave mercantile di nome Dimbula, perno di un insolito racconto che ha al suo centro le tematiche della tecnologia e del progresso scientifico. All'interno del racconto, Kipling si diverte a dar voce al ponte, ai chiodi, ai bagli, agli argani, in un gioco di dialoghi surreali che alla fine daranno vita a una voce sola: quella della nave Dimbula che troverà se stessa nel suo primo viaggio da Liverpool a New York.

Quattro racconti – introvabili da tempo in Italia e mai raccolti insieme – caratterizzati da un preciso senso dell'avventura e da un graffiante umorismo venato di aspetti satirici. Uno dei lati meno noti e tuttavia originalissimi dell'autore di "Kim", "Il libro della giungla", "Capitani coraggiosi" e "L'uomo che volle farsi Re". A "Il diavolo e l'abisso", primo straordinario e travolgente racconto lungo, in una nuova traduzione, se ne aggiungono altri tre: "La nave che trovò se stessa", "La mia domenica in patria" e "Pane nell'acqua".

"Il diavolo e l'abisso" è uno straordinario e appassionante racconto lungo, pubblicato per la prima volta nel 1895 sul numero natalizio del settimanale The Graphic. Il racconto narra dell'avventura finale di un grande piroscafo adoperato per missioni piuttosto dubbie, che cambia continuamente nome. Un giorno, infatti, camuffato da baleniera e battente bandiera britannica, viene intercettato e, infine, braccato da una cannoniera nei mari dell'Indonesia, dove di balene, per l'appunto, non se ne sono mai viste.

"Imagine-toi qu'au temps jadis, l'Éléphant n'avait pas de trompe. Il n'avait qu'un nez noiraud, courtaud, et gros comme une botte. Il pouvait bien le tortiller de droite et de gauche, mais non pas ramasser des choses avec." "L'Enfant d'éléphant" (1902) est un conte racontant pourquoi la trompe de l'éléphant est si grande. Rudyard Kipling (1865-1936) était un auteur britannique. Né en Inde, il est surtout connu pour son roman "Le Livre de la Jungle". Il fut à la fois le premier anglais et le plus jeune lauréat (42 ans) à recevoir le Prix Nobel de littérature.
