    The XIX century was marked by the imperial race and consequently the economic growth. Between 1880-1914 most part of the world except from Europe and America were divided in territories governed directly or under the political domination of other Nations. Among the one who defines themselves as empire, Great Britain and France were the two great empires of that time, by subjugate others, they were the ones who have most extended their territories and increased their economy. Though, the imperialist run was not just an economic and political phenomenon, but also cultural, it was constantly represented on different literary genres: Romance, poetry, flyers, etc. During British Empire, writers such as Joseph Conrad, T. E. Lawrence, Jane Austen, Gertrude Bell and Rudyard Kipling, could with mastery, consolidate those domination in the works they produced, even though unconsciously. From those writers, the most notorious was Rudyard Kipling, considered by some critics as the “Imperialism poetry”, who supported openly the domination and expansion of the British Empire on East, above all on India. Had Kipling impose primitivism to the East on his works? Were that imposition limited to India, your homeland, or extend to other countries? The analysis object of this research, the book The man who would be king and others stories, gathers the most important works from the author, showing not only romances and innocent children's stories, but reveals the ideology of a man, which defended the interesting of a society that supports the domination and imperialistic expansion.
