Academic literature on the topic 'Bengali Patriotic poetry'

History, it seems, has to attain a degree of scientificity, resident in the truth-value of its narrative, before it can be called history, as distinguished from the purely literary or political. Invoking the work of Jacques Rancière and Hayden White, this essay investigates the manner in which history becomes a science through a detour that gives speech a regime of truth. It does this by exploring the nineteenth-century relationship of history to poetry and to truth in the context of the emerging discipline of history in Bengal. The question is discussed in relation to a patriotic poem, Palashir Yuddha (1875), accused of ahistoricality, as well as to a defense made by Bengal's first professional historian, Jadunath Sarkar, against a similar charge in the context of Bankimchandra Chatterjee's historical novels. That the relationship of creativity to history is a continuing preoccupation for the historian is finally explored through Ranajit Guha's invocation of Tagore in History at the Limit of World-History (2002).

Sri Aurobindo is one of the foremost writers in the field of Indian writing in English in general and Indo-Anglian drama in particular. He is an institution in himself; he was a great patriot, the fiery evangelist of Nationalism, a great scholar, the interpreter of the Veda, Upnishadas and The Geeta, the critic of life and literature. Here we consider him as a man of letters in Excelsis, a master of prose art, and a dramatist and poet of great power and adaptability. With his wonderful mastery over languages like English, Sanskrit and Bengali, “Sri Aurobindo produces in one the impression that he is a born lord of language.” All his writings bear testimony to his genius and knowledge of the Eastern and the Western thought. This research paper is focusing on his poetic skills on describing the beauty of meeting of twin souls, being a yogi how wonderfully he painted a beautiful picture of love and its meeting, Satyavan and Savitri meet each other in the forest in where there is a cool and sensible breeze in the air of spring and the love of them groves. Reading this destined meeting of Satyavan and Savitri defiantly leads us into the different word where Shree Ram meets Seeta and Shree Krishna to Radha.
