About the Book
This anthology brings together papers presented at a seminar organized by the Sahitya Akademi in March 1998, offering a comprehensive overview of Indian poetry over the five decades following Independence. The collection explores key conceptual questions, examines paradigm shifts in the literary scene, and interrogates established canons by foregrounding marginalized voices.
The papers delve into the evolution of modern sensibility in Indian poetry, examining how it connects to broader cultural issues and the impact of post-colonial avant-garde movements, including feminist and Dalit movements. The papers are categorized under three main themes:
-
Modernism in Retrospect – Explores the historical, political, and aesthetic aspects of modernism.
-
After Modernism: Articulating Resistance – Focuses on alternative trends that challenge mainstream poetry.
-
Poetry as Discourse: Some General Issues – Discusses contemporary issues in poetry, including the challenges of translation.
Contributors include prominent figures like Dilip Chitre, E.V. Ramakrishnan, Ramesh Chandra Shah, Makarand Paranjape, Rukmini Bhaya Nair, Chandrakant Patil, M.
