Selected Poems
Jibanananda Das' lyricism is unparalleled in Bengali literature. His early poems are vivid, eloquent celebrations of the beauty of Bengal; his later works, written in the 1940s and 50s, are darker, comments on political issues and current affairs like the Second World War, the Bengal Famine of '43 and Hindu - Muslim riots at the time of Partition. Born in 1899, Jibanananda belonged to a group of poets who tried to shake off Tagore's poetic influence. While he is best known for poetry that reveals a deep love for nature and rural landscapes, tradition and history, Jibanananda is also strikingly urban, and introspective, his work centring on themes of loneliness, depression and death. He was a master of word-images, and his unique poetic idiom drew on tradition but was startlingly new.

Gitanjali
Gitanjali by Rabindranath Tagore is a timeless collection of 103 poems that express a profound spiritual journey. Written in Bengali and later translated into English by Tagore himself, Gitanjali earned him the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1913, making him the first non-European laureate. In this collection, Tagore explores themes of devotion, the relationship between the divine and the human, and the beauty of nature. Each poem resonates with simplicity yet carries deep philosophical undertones, inviting readers to connect with the infinite in their everyday lives. This edition, enriched with insightful commentary and a glossary by संस्कृतम् Publication, aims to provide readers with a deeper understanding of Tagore’s spiritual and philosophical musings. The poems are presented with clarity and thoughtfulness, appealing to modern readers who seek inspiration and contemplation in a rapidly changing world. Perfect for lovers of poetry, philosophy, and spirituality, Gitanjali continues to inspire readers across generations with its universal themes of love, devotion, and the search for inner peace.
Modern Bengali Poetry
The seventh-most spoken language in the world, Bengali is home to some of the most distinctive poetry ever written anywhere. Starting with the later poems of Nobel Laureate Rabindranath Tagore, there has been a long and continuous line of modern poetry in the language, its span ranging from lyrical love poems to passionate political verse, from expressions of existential anguish to psychological explorations. This volume celebrates over one hundred years of this poetry from the two Bengals--the eastern Indian state and the country of Bangladesh-- represented by over fifty different poets and a multitude of forms and styles.
