What do rudyard kipling's works reveal about his political views?

Hi!

The answer is that Rudyard Kipling's works revealed he favored colonization by the British

Explanation:

Rudyard Kipling was born in India, and he lived in a period that saw the British Empire reach its height and begin its decline.

Kipling's writings show enthusiasm and support for Eastern culture, and it's people, and they are also filled with racism, pro-imperial jingoism, and an undying belief in the white man's right to global rule. All of these support that he prefered india to be ruled by the British and that supports the argument that he favored their colonization.

first of all the mood needs to be defined: it is obviously a mood of deceitful relief and serenity. why? because the cape horn is one of the most violent maritime regions of earth and although it has been left behind, it is a personification of ahab’s delirium and the fact that the end of the passage speaks about it about being “hidden” but “raving” immediately conveys the feeling the calm is not permanent but fleeting.

furthermore, the oxymoron “mild stun'sails” is the first instance of such feeling as the adjective “mild” is associated with “stunned” underscoring the fleeting nature of this “tranquil” moment. and the contrasts keep piling up, with the opposition between “dark den” and “blessed light and air” to end with the final conclusion that leaves the reader with the uneasy knowledge that this is just a reprieve.

the difference of the poems of walt whitman and emily dickinson is that whitman uses personification, whereas dickinson avoids figurative language. whitman incorporates transcendentalism and realism in his works. on the other hand, dickinson's poems talks about death and immortality.
