Indian English Poetry

Indian English poetry, which after independence breathed the air of freedom with an identity of its own, is rich in conception and execution. The charge that mere rubbish is being dished out in the name of Indian English poetry is not true. The poets who are rich in content as well as form remain in the field. The present anthology that includes twenty five articles and research papers attempts to evaluate the marginalized poets besides the established ones. Some poets that are discussed in the anthology are Derozio, Toru Dutt, Aurobindo, Tagore, Sarojini Naidu, Dom Moraes, Nissim Ezekiel, Ramanujan, Kamala Das, jayanta Mahapatra, Shiv K. Kumar, Daruwalla, O.P. Bhatnagar, Sujata Bhatt, Niranjan Mohanty, Bibhu Padhi, D.C. Chambial, R.K. Singh, I.K. Sharma, I.H. Rizvi and R.C. Shukla. Besides these poetic colums of Indian English Poetry, some general papers that focus on the survey of Indian English poetry, poetry of women empowerment and Marxist idiom in Contemporary Indian English Poetry have been included to make the anthology interesting and thought-provoking not only for the teachers, scholars and researchers but also for the general readers who will certainly discover several unexplored aspects of the Indian English poetry.
