Hinterer Vorsatz mit Vokabeln. - Joseph Rudyard Kipling ['d???z?f '??dj?d 'k?pl??] (* 30. Dezember 1865 in Bombay; 18. Januar 1936 in London) war ein britischer Schriftsteller und Dichter, der 1907 den Literaturnobelpreis erhielt. Sein bekanntestes Werk ist Das Dschungelbuch. Kipling wurde außerdem bekannt als umstrittener Propagandist des britischen Kolonialismus. Dabei prägte er in einem Gedicht den Begriff the white man's burden" (zu deutsch: die Bürde des weißen Mannes). . Freimaurerei: 1886 wurde Kipling als Freimaurer in der Loge Hope and Perseverance in Lahore initiiert. Da er zu diesem Zeitpunkt noch keine 21 Jahre alt war, erteilte der Distrikts-Großmeister eine Ausnahmegenehmigung. Über dieses Ereignis schrieb Kipling in The Freemason am 28. März 1925, dass er dort für ein paar Jahre Sekretär der Loge war, die aus Brüdern aus mindestens vier verschiedenen Glaubensrichtungen bestand. Seine Aufnahme sei durch ein Mitglied von Brahmo Somaj (Hindu) erfolgt, seine Beförderung zum Gesellen durch einen Muslim und seine Erhebung zum Meister durch einen Engländer. Der Schneider der Loge sei ein indischer Jude gewesen. Seinen Mark Master Grad erhielt er in der Mark Loge Fidelity am 12. April 1887 und seinen Royal Ark Mariners Grad am 17. April 1888 in der Mt. Ararat Loge in Lahore. Als Kipling 1888 nach Allahabad versetzt wurde, affiliierte er bei der dort ansässigen Loge Independence with Philanthropy. 1889 nach England zurückgekehrt, war er 1927 Mitgründer der Silent Cities Lodge No. 4848 und ebenfalls der Author's Lodge No. 3456. In der berühmten Canongate Kilwinning Lodge No. 2 in Edinburgh wurde er nach alter Tradition zum Poet Laureate ernannt; ein Amt, das zuvor Robert Burns in ähnlicher Weise innehatte. Kiplings Novelle The Man Who Would Be King (siehe: englische Wikipedia und Der Mann, der König sein wollte) handelt von der Freimaurerei. In seinen Erzählungen The Wrong Thing, The Winged Hats und Brother Square Toes verarbeitet er Freimaurergebräuche. 1926 veröffentlicht Kipling eine Novellenreihe unter dem Titel Debits and Credits, in denen er freimaurerische Gebräuche, Ritualworte und Redewendungen verarbeitet. Diese Novellen, die im Ersten Weltkrieg spielen, lauten: In the Interest of the Brethren, The Janeits, A Madonna of the Trenches (Eine Erscheinung in den Schützengräben, 1924) und A Friend of the Family. Ebenfalls widmete er mehrere Gedichte der Freimaurerei, darunter The Mother Lodge, The Widow at Windsor, The Press, Banquet Night, Sons of Martha und The Palace. Das Hakenkreuz oder die Swastika: Da viele seiner Bücher ein Hakenkreuz auf dem Einband hatten, wird manchmal vermutet, Kipling sei ein Nationalsozialist gewesen. Hierbei handelt es sich aber um ein klares Missverständnis: Kipling meinte die hinduistische Swastika, nicht das nationalsozialistische Symbol. Die Haken konnten bei Kipling nach rechts oder auch nach links gebogen sein, während die des nationalsozialistischen Hakenkreuzes immer rechtsgebogen waren. Außerdem nutzte Kipling das Symbol bereits vor der Jahrhundertwende in völlig unschuldiger" Absicht. Nachdem Hitler an die Macht gekommen war und die Nationalsozialisten sich des Zeichens bemächtigt hatten, sah Kipling von der Verwendung des Symbols ab. .
