Abstract:
The present research aims to explore the representation and portrayal of women in the selected poems of Jayanta Mahapatra, one of India’s most profound and prolific contemporary English poets. His compelling depictions of women often encompass and transcend the boundaries of traditional Indian cultural norms and societal structures, thus requiring a detailed, nuanced investigation. His poems deal with the alienation of women from themselves and from the society. The atrocities that are exerted on women is explicitly exposed by the poet. They were not only termed as weaker sex by the patriarchal society but also made them as such. The poet stands by the deprived section of the society and acts as a voice of them, as the silent screaming is not heard by the world. His works serve as a bridge between the world of man and the world of woman. The pivotal focus of this study is an examination of Mahapatra’s depiction of women, ranging from symbolizing pure innocence and tradition to epitomizing complex modern experiences and gendered identity. The research critically investigates how the poet’s use of imagery, metaphors, and symbolic language paints a vivid picture of women across his poems, thereby adding another dimension to the thematic concerns of his poetic oeuvre. Moreover, the paper scrutinizes the elements of socio-cultural context, gender constructs, and feminist perspectives within Mahapatra's poetic descriptions. Through this examination, it seeks to analyze the intertwining of the personal, social, and cultural experiences of women in the poet's picturization. The study further delves into Mahapatra's poetry’s use of nature and its metaphorical connections to femininity, while considering Indian societal realities and dynamics. Mahapatra’s depiction of women in his poetry transcends from being merely characters to profound representations of societal paradigms and discourses, reflecting the inherent challenges and conflicts that women face in a patriarchal society.

Abstract:
Jayanta Mahapatra’s impregnation of socio-cultural backdrops that he discerns in his locale fetches him face to face with history and myth when his “self” is connoted in the act of attention. The intimacies amid the self and reality - the reality that flees but comprises self and culture form the bedrock of Mahapatra’s poetry. To him, it is the investigation of myths and it is leashed with the world of art and sculpture. He keeps on his quest for a divine spirit and for charm in the relationship between man and man, and God and God, men and sculptured art. Mahapatra holds forth to have the condemnation that tradition is and continuance, it is entirety and one has to fathom the present in terms of the past and the past in terms of the present. There is a dense token of introspection in his poetry. The elementary poetry of Mahapatra is a satiric repercussion on past and current racial, religious, cultural, and societal life. The poet's attempt to extract meaning from his emotional and intellectual existence is often shown in Oriya culture. He exercises the Oriya life caught in the current of time as the impulsive millstone for his poetry. Keywords: Indian culture, social introspection, poetry, sensibility, self-exploration, discovery

Abstract:
Much of modern poetry speaks about contemporary life and society. Poems of today are short and compact. They deal with various aspects of common life. Delicate feelings and personal notes are handled deftly. Creative work in poetry is a discovery of oneself at a particular moment which just happens and it does not follow a particular programme. Poetry is discovered, not invented. It is a free and natural blooming that takes place in a language rather than a planed composition meant to be accommodated in a framework, already existing. The poet creates a new form which helps him know himself, see himself, and analyse himself. It is like self-creation and self-realisation, which reveal the beauty of poetry that flows from the heart of the poet. Poets like Jayanta Mahapatra pictures the live and vital nature of earth and society and the themes of their poems bring forth and present the important places of Orissa. English Poetry in India, today makes the English language more malleable to change with ease and naturalness. The poets draw their themes, with conscious efforts, out of the glorious ancient Indian culture. The collage of concrete images derived from the multi-dimensional learning of science, economy, geography, philosophy, psychology, ethics, scriptures and so on vindicates the realistic trends that pervade modern poetry. It is in this context, the researcher feels that a study has to be undertaken on Jayanta Mahapatra who has carved a niche for himself in Indian poetry in English by merging the inward and outward modes of expression.

Abstract:
Jayanta Mahapatra is a well-known, distinguished, Indo-Anglican writer whose poems and short stories are acknowledged worldwide. He was awarded the Sahithya Akademi Award for his work Relationship in 1981, which enabled him to gain the name of one of the doyens of Indian English Poetry. His major themes are all linked with his native place Orissa. His poems mentions Puri, Konarka, Chilika lake, Bhubaneswar recurrently and each of them are pictured in detail. An Ecocritical study on his poems is worth probing as it deserves more attention and consideration in the current state of environmental crisis. His sole inspiration is his interaction with the nature and his intimate relationship to it. As ecocriticism rightly perceives it as the study of the relationship between human and nature, deserves a detailed study with his poems. River daya in his poem takes the role of a bearer of history and is the memory of the past valor and glory of Orissa. The study here focuses on the elements of ecocriticism in his selected poems.

Abstract:
Jayanta Mahapatra is widely celebrated as an iconic figure and revered as the Father of Modern and post-modern Indian English poetry. He is known for his unique blend of imaginative realism and profound philosophical insights in his poetry. This research paper presents a comprehensive exploration of the visionary poet Jayant Mahapatra's literary works, focusing on the intertwining themes of realism and philosophy within the rich tapestry of Indian literature. His profound poetical works serve as a cornerstone in any discourse on Indian English Poetry, vividly portraying themes of social discrimination and the erosion of moral values. Internationally acclaimed, Mahapatra's masterpieces such as "Hunger," "Myth," and " Summer" are hailed as flawless examples of majestic poetry that compel readers to grapple with profound societal truths. Delving deeper into his repertoire, his philosophical musings in poems like "The Moon Moments" and "Total Solar Eclipse" resonate with a stark realism that captivates and mesmerizes audiences worldwide. An immersive and enlightening reading of Mahapatra's poetic oeuvre, sheds light on how his imaginative realism and philosophic insights offer a deep understanding of contemporary Indian society, its complexities, and the human condition at large. His poetry is remarkable for its profound depth of emotions and true poetic imagination, which spans a wide variety of themes. His work evokes intense emotional connections with the world around him, as he skillfully transforms everyday events into verse. To quote Robert Frost: “Poetry is when an emotion has found its thought and the thought has found words.” Mahapatra's imaginative canvas powerfully delves into the human condition, where a brooding landscape, heavy bodily passions, and interior compulsions intertwine with the agonizing strands of human existence, offering a profound and thought-provoking exploration of our innermost struggles. He himself stated “I fell in love with English. I played with words, turning them over and over again until they were heavy with meaning.”

Abstract:
The recipient of the very first Sahitya Akademi Award for English poetry for his anthology Relationship in the year 1981, Jayanta Mahapatra is a physicist by profession and at heart he has always been a poet. He has almost touched every emotion of the mankind through his poetry. The touch of the culture of the Orissa state can be seen largely in his poetry as he belongs to that region. If we talk about him being feminist or not, then the answer can directly be a “yes”. He has been an observer of the trauma and sufferings that women face in the contemporary Indian society. It pisses him off that women have to go through traumatic experiences on a daily basis just to survive in society which is driven by men. In his poems like, “Indian Summer”, “Logic”, “The Whorehouse in a Calcutta Street”, “Dawn’, “A Missing Person”, etc. he paints a picture of Indian women in different roles and how they still have to struggle in their day to day life and how their lives become pathetic in the social set up India which is patriarchal in nature. The present paper aims to analyze Mahapatra’s poetry through the lens of feministic concern and how his poetry makes people understand the situation of women around.

Abstract:
Jayanta Mahapatra is one of the doyens of Indian English literature. Being an Indo- Anglican writer, he came to the literary arena in his later half of his life. He was then conferred with Sahitya Akademy award for his seminal work Relationship in 1981. This gave him the title of a modern Indian writer among the international literary circle. Most of his works are bound to the culture of Orissa and his works are rich in images picked from Bhubaneswar, Konarka, Puri and Chilka lake. He is a patron of Indian civilization and an ardent ghter against environmental concerns, social issues and political inequalities. Reading Mahapatra’s poems under Ecocritical praxis is an interesting realm of inquest where he has penned his genuine concerns and cultural tracks through his poems. Eco-poetic aspects are abundant in his poems that Mahapatra reconnects the human activity with nature and also resist the current human intervention in this exploitive capitalistic world. Cultural ecology has a deep connection in his poems that his characters are the testimonies of the reconnection between man and nature. Irrespective of his age, he is still an ardent writer who has a vision for optimistic posterity.

Abstract:
Reading or writing poems could be a good way to spend one’s time or express one’s thoughts and emotions but ultimately poems written by certain individuals might not appeal to many individuals, and lines of poetry could easily be read, enjoyed, and then forgotten. The present paper with the help of a few poems by Jayanta Mahapatra on Odisha would try to argue that poems at most times serve only the writer, who gives vent to his emotions on paper while enjoying the process of writing, and have anything but a momentary impact on the readers.

Abstract:
The poetry of JayantaMahapatra is an expression of certain kinds of crises that have been witnessed by their generations. He is profoundly and explicitly preoccupied by the predicament of his generation, and his poems have become objects of the expression of that predicament and weariness. His poems are profoundly marked by contemporary crises and disillusionment, which are prevailed in his respective social panorama. His poems are the dark glasses through which life is seen with strange clarity. Life seen through those dark glasses is grey, monotonous, desolate, empty, grotesque, paralyzed and hopeless with full of weariness and fatigue. Mahapatra is deeply and philosophy concerned with the predicament of his generations, which have been, the victims of squalor, decadence, malaise, morbidity, profligacy, dissipation, depravity and agony of spiritual lapse due to the disillusionment prevailed in his age. The poems are the expression of a devastating analysis of the society of his time which suffers from the psychic blow. The researcher has tried to discuss some of his poems which reveal such images.

Abstract:
Indian English poetry since the culmination of the colonial phase took a decisive and deliberately marked shift from the slavish imitation of the romantic writers like Keats, Byron, Shelly, and Wordsworth to a more progressive and experimental style with methodical and thematic innovativeness. It was known as post-independence poetry which heralded the arrival of a new way of composing poems with an indigenous ‘Indianness’ essence, sabotaging the strong clutches of its colonizer’s English mother tongue. Some of the greatest contributors include Nissim Ezekiel, Dom Moraes, P. Lal, Adil Jussawalla, A. K. Ramanujan, R. Parthasarathy, Gieve Patel, Arvind Mehrotra, Pritish Nandy, Kamala Das, K. N. Daruwalla, Shiv Kumar, Jayanta Mahapatra, Meena Alexander, Agha Shahid Ali, Vikram Seth, Manohar Shetty, etc. A large section of poetry produced by these avant-garde writers was based on raw human experiences and expressions with overtones of psychoanalysis, existentialism, surrealism, etc. Another major experimentation conducted by the modern Indian poets was the incorporation of symbols and metaphors, which made an allusive reference to the unvoiced pathos of the survival guilt of the modern Indian man. With the emergent uncertainties and disillusionment of the post-independence scenario, themes like an identity crisis, alienation, feminist concerns, Marxism, etc were projected as close allies with the existential concerns of the era. Using Foucault’s discourse of society on ‘subject’ and ‘power’ in the molding of the individual’s self, the present study marks an attempt to demonstrate how the two selected poets Jayanta Mahapatra and Keki N Daruwalla try to reflect their existential concerns and post-colonial ‘angst’ by meticulously employing differently disabled bodily metaphors.

Abstract:
This paper takes a close look at confessional poetry, a type of writing where poets share their personal and inner experiences, in modern literature. We focus on the works of four well-known poets: Charles Bukowski, Kamala Das, Jayanta Mahapatra, and Sylvia Plath. Each of these poets has a unique way of sharing their stories and emotions. By looking at these poets together, this paper shows how confessional poetry can be different but also shares common themes, making it an important and relatable part of today's literature. We see how each poet's work gives us a deeper understanding of personal experiences and feelings, making confessional poetry a powerful way to connect with readers across the world.
