;a  pair  of spectacles “as a sign of friendship between priest and priest” (12). Moreover, the vivid portrayal  of  harmonious  living  of  different  castes,  races  and  religions  in  the  Grand Trunk  Road  shows  Kipling’s  idealistic  vision  of  cultural  integration.  It  is  also evidenced  from  the  following  statement  from  the  Lama  to  Kim:  “‘Friend  of  all  the World,’ - the Lama looks directly at Kim -‘I am an old man - pleased with shows as are children.  To  those  who  follow  the  Way  there  is  neither  black  nor  white,  Hind  nor Bhotiyal. We be all souls seeking escape’” (217).

Conclusion 

In  Kim,  Kipling  portrays  the  ideal  relationship  artistically  between  Kim’s  double cultural  identities  in  order  to  express  his  idealism  in  the  identity  integration.  His protagonist Kim has so many similarities with him both in life and spirit. So Kim is the projection of Kipling into the novel. Idealizing the hero Kim is very helpful to heal the adult Kipling’s psychological wound which is caused by his painful childhood and it is permanently tied to the rest of his life and to his writing career. So from psychological perspective,  it’s  natural  for  Kipling  to  foster  idealism  to  serve  this  purpose. Characterizing Kim’s happiness in life and his enjoyment with people helps the author Kipling  to  meet  his  ideal  self-fulfillment.  From  the  postcolonial  theory  of  Homi Bhabha’s  “Third  Space”,  we  conclude  that  Kipling  makes  a  great  contribution  to  the ideal  integration  between  Indian  culture  and  British  culture,  which  is  though  unlikely to  happen  in  reality.  In  the  novel,  the  harmonious  relationship  of  Kim  and  the  Lama, Kim  and  Colonel  Creighton,  Mahbub  Ali  embodies  this  integration.  These  characters enjoy an ideal harmony in the “Third Space”. After all, a novel is just a literary work and so there is more than one history in it. Kipling’s greatest achievement is his vivid description  of  Indian  life  in  the  end  of  the  19th  century.  Because  his  journalistic experience  empowers  him  to  understand  the  Indian  daily  life,  his  wish  to  be  familiar with  Indian  culture  led  him  to  travel  across  almost  all  parts  of  Indian  subcontinent. Through  his  artistic  writing,  Kipling  could  stimulate  deep  sensitivity  in  his  readers. Kipling’s  feelings  for  India,  especially  the  本论文由英语论文网提供整理，提供论文代写，英语论文代写，代写论文，代写英语论文，代写留学生论文，代写英文论文，留学生论文代写相关核心关键词搜索。
