Ecological Implications in the Poetry of Nissim Ezekiel, A. K. Ramanujan and Gieve Patel: An Ecocricial Approach to Indian English Poetry

Rakeshkumar Ramubhai Patel


Abstract: Indian English poetry is the oldest form of Indian English literature and has been a rich contribution to the world of literature. "Indian poets writing in English have succeeded to nativize or indianize English in order to reveal typical Indian situations" (Wikipedia). An ecocritical approach entails how we look at the literary works with special reference to the depiction of nature and environment. This research paper tries to study the ecological implications in the poetry of Nissim Ezekiel, A. K. Ramanujan and Gieve Patel dealing with their sensitivity towards nature and the environment. The aim of the study is to evaluate how their poetry reflects the eco consciousness in broader sense of the term. It is not merely the aesthetic beauty of nature and the landscape the poets are concerned in the poetry, but they are more concerned with the deterioration of ecology due to man?s actions. Their poetry serves as an eye-opener to show the man a true picture that he is just a part of nature and not the master of it.
