Back Cover

This book explores Romantic poetics through a comparative study of nature and love across Sanskrit, Telugu, and English literary traditions, revealing their universal resonance and cultural distinctiveness. Focusing on Kālidāsa, the towering figure of classical Sanskrit poetry, and Percy Bysshe Shelley, a major voice of English Romanticism, the study examines how nature functions as both setting and emotional catalyst. In Kālidāsa’s works, the natural world is intricately bound to human feeling, reflecting a deep ecological and aesthetic consciousness. Telugu literature enriches this dialogue by embedding nature and love within regional sensibilities and cultural memory, offering nuanced poetic expressions rooted in lived sceneries.

Description

This book explores Romantic poetics through a comparative study of nature and love across Sanskrit, Telugu, and English literary traditions, revealing their universal resonance and cultural distinctiveness. Focusing on Kālidāsa, the towering figure of classical Sanskrit poetry, and Percy Bysshe Shelley, a major voice of English Romanticism, the study examines how nature functions as both setting and emotional catalyst. In Kālidāsa’s works, the natural world is intricately bound to human feeling, reflecting a deep ecological and aesthetic consciousness. Telugu literature enriches this dialogue by embedding nature and love within regional sensibilities and cultural memory, offering nuanced poetic expressions rooted in lived sceneries. Shelley’s poetry, marked by vivid imagery and philosophical intensity, celebrates nature as sublime and transformative. By juxtaposing these traditions, the book highlights thematic continuities alongside cultural particularities, demonstrating how poets across time and geography articulate a shared reverence for nature as an intimate expression of human love and emotion.
