Book Description
Excerpt from Gleanings From the Poets: For Home and School While school education especially alms to develop the understanding and form good mental habits, it must not neglect to interest the imagination and refine the taste. There is a delicacy of taste and of sentiment, and an intellectual richness, which can be perfected only by an intimate acquaintance with nature and art and the human soul; and the foundation of these may be most successfully laid in childhood by the study of poetry, - of the finest thoughts clothed in the most attractive garb. It is with this design of presenting beauty, both moral and natural, in its manifold shapes, as it is shown to us in the universe, that the present collection has been made. The pieces chosen are, with very few exceptions, entire, because passages are always injured by being taken from their connection, and because young persons like to know the whole of a thing. They are short, and selected from the whole range of English and American standard authors; it being thought better to offer sentiments as they arise in a great variety of minds, and "mould themselves into gentle verse." They are not exclusively of one school or time, - for beauty is not to be prisoned. The artist finds it not complete in one model, but studies it in all Us appearances, and then, though he paint but one face or one landscape, he gives us the wealth of a world.

Pages : 140
Book Description
In this collection of his old and new poems, Bimal Ghosh reflects upon a rich variety of topics-as he had in his previous volume, Through the Eyes of My Mind (2015). The poems are grouped into six clusters: yearnings for a better world; self-portrait and introspection; twilight in life; death and darkness; the beauty of never-ending change; and anniversary wishes from a loving father. While the sentiments underlying these poems are intensely personal, they are also universal, as they touch the chord of common human feelings of sadness and joy, despair and ecstasy, hopes and frustrations, and anger and empathy. Consistent with their universality, they also seek to bring some solace to people in distress, and to lift up the spirits of those struggling against deprivation or injustice. Alongside the diversity of topics, the cadence of each cluster comes together to create a harmonious symphony of human emotions and enduring truths.
