Rocks and Rain: Poetry of Jayanta Mahapatra

Manish Singh Bhadauria

4.9/5 (14061 ratings)

Description:Jayanta Mahapatra drew his own starting line to begin as poet and the Physicist in him created his own metaphysical world studded with myths, imagery and symbols. He took a very late; rather one can say a delayed entry in to poetic world. But he compensated his late beginning with continuous writing and contributing to various world renowned journals and periodicals of the time. Jayanta Mahapatra belongs to a famous trinity of modern Indian English poets including Nissim Ezekiel and A.K Ramanujan. These poets created their own ethnic flavors acclimatizing the English language to the Indian soil and gave a new voice to local traditions, culture and their own emotions. Jayanta Mahapatra has handled and is still handling a mental duel between binary cultures i.e. Physics versus Metaphysics, Western and Indian Culture and Christian identity and Hindu search for it. These contrasts travel like condensation and rarefaction in his poetic voice. He has used these divergent lines in his poetic world that runs parallel to his surroundings, his memories and his eyes making gyroscopic observation of his land and history. He narrates his own experience of giving voice to his mental pictures which travel on the virtual chords of waves passing through heart and arousing visions."Life is a painful, the process of writing a poem is painful, and then poetry is going into and finding the centre of yourself, and I suppose you can't do this if you don't give up your own self. It sounds quite ambiguous, but you are always aware of the silence which occupies your soul or whatever, and words only go on to make us more aware of this silence which suspends all life, keeps you hanging..."The human in him keeps wondering in crowded streets bearing a cross of identity as born Christian; searching reasons why his grandfather was made to change his religion, why he feels alone and unwelcomed in celebration world of his being, he finds the reasons and logic of weird customs and rituals. Mahapatra weaves his poetry with warps and wefts derived from his multifarious visions of myths, cultures, society, and pain inside and around him dipped in his imagery studded with physics and religious, natural and abstract symbols and vision.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
