Humanism in the Selected Poems of Rabindranath Tagore and G. Sankara Kurup – A Critical Comparison

Dr. Joseph Thomas

Indian Poets from Different Regions

Rabindranath Tagore and G. Sankara Kurup are two Indian poets belonging to two different states and cultures, sharing common views on many sociological issues. Though they did not see eye to eye on all issues, both have a humanistic yearning to settle burning issues concerning the suppressed and working classes caught in the clutches of their masters. They are ready to champion the cause of the down-trodden women. It is amazing to note that both these romantic poets of the Indian Renaissance had a message to convey. Tagore, the Nobel Laureate, reached out to readers across the world and W. B. Yeats got a new awakening through his reading of the Gitanjali.

G. Sankara Kurup from Malayalam Literature was the first poet to be honoured with the Gnanapeeth award. Both of them are humanists. A comparative study of the poets from a humanistic angle will be rewarding and profitable.
