  in india poem by nissim ezekiel: INDIAN POETRY IN ENGLISH : CRITICAL ESSAYS ZINIA MITRA, 2016-07-01 Indian poets who wrote in English—a small middle class minority—were divided from the regional language poets by more than language for long. The English poets had a selected readership, were known unto themselves, in academic circles if they were widely published, but were looked down upon with a kind of derision by regional writers. However, the scenario has changed now. From English being spurned as a colonizer’s tongue that was nobody’s language, it has now become everybody’s language with English medium schools, English movies, ads, soaps and serials. For a generation living in a global village, genuine readership and appreciation of English poetry is no longer an encumbrance. This book, in its second edition, continues to educate the students with diverse and thought-provoking essays that vary from personal to argumentative to objectively discursive English literature and to those who are genuinely interested in Indian English poetry. The Fourteen poets selected in this anthology are Michael Madhusudan Dutt, Toru Dutt, Rabindranath Tagore, Aurobindo Ghosh, Sarojini Naidu, Jibanananda Das, Nissim Ezekiel, Jayanta Mahapatra, A.K. Ramanujan, Arun Kolatkar, Rajagopal Parthasarathy, Kamala Das, and Dilip Chitre. The poets included are all on the syllabi of major universities in India.

  in india poem by nissim ezekiel: The Bloodaxe Book of Contemporary Indian Poets Jeet Thayil, 2008 Jeet Thayil's definitive selection covers 55 years of Indian poetry in English. It is the first anthology to represent not just the major poets of the past half-century - the canonical writers who have dominated Indian poetry and publishing since the 1950s - but also the different kinds of poetry written by an extraordinary range of younger poets who live in many countries as well as in India. It is a groundbreaking global anthology of 70 poets writing in a common language responding to shared traditions, different cultures and contrasting lives in the changing modern world.Thayil's starting-point is Nissim Ezekiel, the first important modern Indian poet after Tagore, who published his first collection in London in 1952. Aiming for verticality rather than chronology, Thayil's anthology charts a poetry of astonishing volume and quality. It pays homage to major influences, including Ezekiel, Dom Moraes and Arun Kolatkar, who died within months of each other in 2004. It rediscovers forgotten figures such as Lawrence Bantleman and Gopal Honnalgere, and it serves as an introduction to the poets of the future.The book also shows that many Indian poets were mining the rich vein of 'chutnified' (Salman Rushdie's word) Indian English long before novelists like Rushdie and Upamanyu Chatterjee started using it in their fiction. It explains why Pankaj Mishra and Amit Chaudhuri have said that Indian poetry in English has a longer, more distinguished tradition than Indian fiction in English. The Indian poet now lives and works in New York, New Delhi, London, Itanagar, Bangalore, Berkeley, Goa, Sheffield, Lonavala, Montana, Aarhus, Allahabad, Hongkong, Montreal, Melbourne, Calcutta, Connecticut, Cuttack and various other global corridors. While some may have little in common in terms of culture (a number of the poets have never lived in India), this anthology shows how they are all bound by the intimate histories of a shared English language.

  in india poem by nissim ezekiel: Indian Love Poems Meena Alexander, 2005-01-25 According to the Kama Sutra, the erotic handbook written two thousand years ago, when the wheel of ecstasy is in motion “there is no textbook at all, and no order.” Indian Love Poems is a unique gathering of poems from across more than two and a half millennia that attempts to catalog the disordered ecstasies of love, ranging from the Kama Sutra and earlier works up to present-day India and the poets of the Indian diaspora. Indian Love Poems features works from the classical languages of Sanskrit and Tamil and such later languages as Hindi, Urdu, Malayalam, Bengali, and English. Emerging from many Indian cultures and eras, the poems collected here reflect a variety of erotic and spiritual passions, and celebrate the powerful role of desire–both male and female–in the intricate dance of existence. From the twelfth-century female poet Mahadeviyakka to the twentieth-century Nobel Prize winner Rabindranath Tagore to such contemporary poets as Kamala Das and Vikram Seth, this glittering tapestry of lyric voices beautifully and sensually evokes the transfiguring force of love.
  in india poem by nissim ezekiel: Marginalized: Indian Poetry in English Smita Agarwal, 2014-01-02 Indian writing in English, especially fiction, continues to capture the attention of readers all over the English-speaking world. Conversely, the strong and flourishing tradition of poetry in English from India has not impacted the contemporary world in the same manner as the fiction. This book creates a debate to highlight the well-grounded and confident tradition of Indian Poetry in English which began almost two hundred years ago with the advent of the British. Individual essays on poets before and since the Indian Independence focus on the poetry of Derozio, Tagore, Aurobindo and Naidu right down to the modern and contemporary poets like Ezekiel, Mahapatra, Ramanujan, Kolatkar, Das, Moraes, Daruwalla, de Souza, Jussawalla and Patel who ushered in a change both in terms of subject matter and style. On either side of the Atlantic, this book which includes a substantial Introduction, Select Bibliography and Index is of value to scholars, teachers and researchers on Indian Poetry in English.
  in india poem by nissim ezekiel: Contemporary Indian English Poetry Kanwar Dinesh Singh, 2008 The Present Book Is A Detailed Exposition Of The Multiple Dimensions Of Creativity In Men And Women Vis-À-Vis The Difference Of Sexuality And Gender As Mirrored In Their Texts. This Innovative And Perceptive Study Confronts The Essentialist Biodeterministic Standpoint That Men And Women Are Out And Out Different, Dissimilar And Divergent. By Discussing The Texts Of The Post-Independence Men And Women Poets Of India And Drawing Comparisons Between Them, It Asserts That, Despite Certain Biological Differences, Men And Women Are Similar In Many Ways. By Employing Theoretical Approaches Based On Psychoanalysis, Linguistics, Poetics, Reader-Responses And Cultural And Gender Studies, The Book Expounds That Gender Or Sexuality Can Make Some Difference To The Aesthetic But It Cannot Solely Determine The Content. The Social, Cultural And Political Milieu Of The Day Plays A Crucial Role In Deciding The Content And Object Of Writing, Besides Conditioning The Psyche And Thought Process Of The Author, More Than Gender Or Sexual Difference Does. This Study Provides New Insights Into The Varied Aspects Of Man-Woman Relationship, The Nitty-Gritty Of Different Family Relations, The Milieu, Human Correlation With Nature, And Metaphysical Questionings Of Life, Death, God And Human Existence, Besides Analyzing The Influence Of Gender And Sexual Difference On Poetic Craft, Particularly On Language, Style And Technique.It Analyses The Poems Of Over Twelve Major Indian Men And Women Poets And Compares Them In Terms Of Diverse Themes, Diction And Idiom, And With Particular Focus On The Workings Of Gender And Sexual Difference. The Major Poets Discussed Are Nissim Ezekiel, A.K. Ramanujan, Keki N. Daruwalla, Shiv K. Kumar And Jayanta Mahapatra Among Men And Monika Varma, Kamala Das, Gauri Deshpande, Sunita Jain, Suniti Namjoshi, Mamta Kalia And Eunice De Souza Among Women.Since These Authors Are Prescribed In The English Syllabi In The Universities Of India, This Study Will Be Extremely Useful To The Students And Teachers. The General Readers Who Are Interested In Indian Literature In English Will Find It Interesting And Informative.

  in india poem by nissim ezekiel: ANIMALS IN INDIAN ENGLISH POETRY Dr. Gajanan T. Hivale, 2019-06-27 Indian English poetry is not addition of English poetry. It is essentially Indian because it portrays Indian cultural and linguistic unity. It is an outcome of Indian literature which has been written in various Indian languages. Therefore, Indian English poetry is one of the parts of Indian English Literature which depicts the socio-political, religious, domestic and economical picture of Indian people. Gauri Deshpande states: We are right in asserting that we are Indian poets writing in English. Our landscape is Indian, our thought is moulded by our political, social, economic and philosophic scene. (Chindhade, p.10). Indian English poetry has accomplished both richness and excellence of craftsmanship.
