ABSTRACT | ||
Subrata Mukhopadhyay (1950–2020), a distinguished writer, emerged as a prominent literary figure of the 1970s. His works adeptly depict the political landscape of Bengal in the seventies, eighties, and nineties of the 20th century, addressing issues such as land and agriculture, the deprivation of common people, the struggles of marginalized lower classes, and the vibrant yet challenging lives of rural folk. He skillfully portrays the essence of life in his works, capturing the complexities of everyday existence with remarkable depth. Additionally, he highlights the spiritual resilience of the unwavering Brahmin community. Mukhopadhyay’s literature gives artistic expression to the eternal beauty of human civilization, emphasizing human integrity above all else in an effort to uncover the profound beauty of the human heart. Through his narratives, he vividly illustrates the hardships of the rural lower class, portraying their crises, daily struggles, and social challenges. His stories explore themes of boundless heroism and resilience among those without physical or financial support, including the disabled, blind, crippled, lepers, and beggars. Moreover, his short stories intricately weave the perpetual relationship between humans and nature. This article aims to examine the artistic beauty embedded in the inner lives of the poor and needy in rural areas, as well as the seamless blend of worldly experiences in Mukhopadhyay’s storytelling. By analyzing selected short stories such as Badyakar, Vishahar, Kakcharitra, Shaman, and Kuthobabara Chaillen, this study seeks to explore the depth and engagement of his literary illustrations. | ||
