A Mandala of Words : Cultural Realities in the Poems of Ashok Vajpeyi, Paperback / softback Book

A Mandala of Words : Cultural Realities in the Poems of Ashok Vajpeyi Paperback / softback

Part of the Studies in East Asian Literatures and Cultures series

Paperback / softback

Description

This book is a hermeneutic analysis of the main poetic spaces in the work of Ashok Vajpeyi, a poet and a critic recognized among the eminent contemporary Hindi writers.

The four parts of the book are devoted to major anthropological questions, instrumental for the poet who - while searching for the principle of unity with the world - causes language to become an extension of existence.

The author shows how, by combining both the Indian and Western cultural traditions, Vajpeyi locates his poetry "between civilizations", where it remains a self-contained projection of discourse taking the form of original and engaging patterns of poetic communication.

The book portrays a significant case of the cultural encounter of East and West in the modern globalized world.
