It is becoming significant for individuals to find their own individual
identities, as the today’s ongoing globalization has become much more
complicated. A similar situation occurred when the British Empire
influenced the world politically, economically, and culturally in the
nineteenth century. In order to grasp human intrinsic identities, my thesis
aims to use postcolonial theories to examine characters’ identities in a
nineteenth-century British novel, Kipling’s Kim (1901).
In Kipling’s Kim, I examine Kim, an Irish boy who experiences racial
identity confusion by living in British India. Kim’s identity is ambiguous as
his background is complicated: his parents are Irish, Kim was born in India,
he was educated in a British school, and he participated in the Great Game.
It would prove inadequate to try to see Kim’s identity based on binary
oppositions, as Kim’s identity is neither British nor native Indian. Aside
from simply being a person named Kim, Kim’s identity consists of being
someone who has cultural hybridity. Through the main character of Kim,
Kipling suggests that a Brit who understands the local Indian culture and
society, as Kim does, would govern India with ease. Overall, Kipling’s Kim
elaborates on why or how India should be governed by Britain and also
seems to justify the British rule of India.
In Kim, Kipling creates the main character of Kim, who has cultural
hybridity and whose process of personal growth throughout the novel
depicts Kipling’s ideas on how to govern India easily. In order to justify
British rule in India, Kipling also depicts how British-Indian society was
developed by Britain, also through the character of Kim. Looking into
characters’ identities throughout nineteenth-century British novels helps
modern readers who live in this complicated world to grasp human intrinsic
identities.
