In "The Times" today 19 March, Kipling is mentioned in two unconnected
letters:
headed 'Morality, atheism and religious faith', Trevor Vaughan writes of
various creative geniuses feeling a creative experience as if dictated
from some outside source. well documented accounts include
Kipling, Coleridge, Poincare & S Spender.
Adjoining, headed 'Save the children', Nicky Baker recalled in childhood
scary nursery rhymes and trying to negotiate the plots and sub-plots of
C.S.Lewis and Kipling.
Has such juxtaposition of letters been noticed before?
