Seminar paper from the year 2002 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: 1,8, University of Hannover, language: English, abstract: The Victorian period (1835-1903) describes an important time span in English history in social, political and cultural matters. Terms like "splendid isolation" (in the field of foreign-policy) or "laissez-faire" (in the field of economy) and the philosophical theories of Utilitarianism and Intuitivism were fundamental concepts to influence life in the "Empire" in the second half of the 19th Century.

One important author of Victorian literature was Rudyard Kipling (1865-1936). He achieved tremendous fame and his literary field stretched from newspaper-publications and essay-writing to novel writing and poetry. But the increasingly popular short story was the kind of literature he indulged in the most. It is interesting to see that he went through quite an unusual educational career before he rose to fame: Kipling lived in India (a British Colony until 1950, when it became a federal state of the Commonwealth) and wrote newspaper-stories (so-called "turn overs"). This is unusual, because most of the popular authors of the Victorian Age who came from the bourgeois middle-class, which was very powerful at that time, started out directly in their writing-career in England.. Some of those were Dickens, Stevenson, Thackeray,
