EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, taken from Rudyard Kipling's classic collection of short stories "Stalky & Co." published in 1899, depicts a pivotal moment in the tale of moral reform among the boys of the Doon School. In this scene, Beetle, Stalky, and McTurk, the story's three main characters, have taken it upon themselves to punish two bullies, Biscoe and Turveydrop, for their relentless torment of a younger student, Lotus Flower. The photograph captures the boys in the midst of their retribution, with Biscoe and Turveydrop tied up by their feet, a humiliating and effective means of restraint used by the gang to teach the bullies a lesson they will not soon forget. The boys' expressions are a mix of determination and satisfaction, as they stand over their defeated foes. Rudyard Kipling's "Stalky & Co." is a seminal work in the history of children's literature, and this image offers a unique glimpse into the world of these iconic characters. The stories, which were first published in various magazines before being compiled into a book, were inspired by Kipling's own experiences at the United Services College in England. The tales follow Stalky, Beetle, and McTurk as they navigate the challenges of school life, often employing unconventional methods to deal with bullies and other adversities. This photograph, with its powerful imagery and historical significance, is a testament to the enduring appeal of Kipling's work and the timeless themes of friendship, morality, and coming of age.
