吉百齡
英國作家
吉百齡（Joseph Rudyard Kipling，1865年12月30號—1936年1月18號）係英國作家同詩人。吉百齡響印度出世，佢因為佢嘅作出名，好似The Jungle Book (1894年)、The Second Jungle Book (1895年)、 Just So Stories (1902年)、 Puck of Pook's Hill (1906年)，重有小說Kim(1901年)，詩Mandalay(1890年)、Gunga Din (1890年)同 "If—" (1910年)；重有好多短篇，The Man Who Would Be King(1888年)，同書集Life's Handicap (1891年), The Day's Work (1898年), and Plain Tales from the Hills (1888年)。
吉百齡被譽為短篇小說藝術創新之人[1]。而佢寫畀細路睇嘅書更加係經典；佢至正嘅對白寫得多變，旁白寫得透澈[2][3]。
吉百齡係英國19、20世紀其中一個，好受歡迎嘅散文作家[1]。佢嘅才華影響過唔少作家[1]。1907年，佢重得到諾貝爾文學獎，而且佢重係第一個英文作家攞獎，同埋最後生嘅得主[4]。響芸芸榮譽中，佢質疑亦都拒絕咗英國御用詩人同封爵[5]。
之不過，吉百齡畀佐治奧威爾等人視為"大英帝國嘅先知"[6]好多人都批評過佢嘅作品有偏見同偏軍國主義[7][8]。咁就成個20世界都係講佢呢點有爭論[9][10]。
