Question

What evidence from the text reveals that Rudyard Kipling did not walk the talk? ({The Interview}) 
 

Hint:

Practicing what one preaches is essential for genuine credibility.

Answer 1

Kipling’s actions contradicted his words as he supported imperialist policies, which were at odds with his portrayal of humanitarian ideals in his writings.He himself indulged in self-promotion by interviewing himself and publishing the interview. This contradiction shows that he did not practice what he preached, undermining his stated belief in writerly isolation.
