Universal Appeal of KoborComparing to Western Elegies
Ahmad Mahbub-ul-Alam, Mohammad Ehsanul Islam Khan, Nafisa Ahsan Nitu
Abstract: The paper endeavors to comprehend the liberal humanism of literature in respect of time and place. Poets, whether eastern or western, being the emotional class, present the natural, simple and ordinary things in some extraordinary manners with their literary intellect, linguistic genius, and philosophic depth. In every language, there is mourning for the dead; especially presented by the poets in their elegies, the poems of lamentation. In fact, an elegy is not just a few lines with some mere mourning or lamentation for the dead; rather, it mirrors life of the common people. In this regard, elegies of all languages have a universal connection with each other. Considering all these, the present study reveals to set an attachment of Jasim Uddin’s poem Koborwith Elegy Written in a Country Churchyard by Thomas Gray, Lycidas by John Milton and Adonais by P. B. Shelly. Both in the western elegies and in the Bengali poem Kobor, the eternal philosophy of arrival and departure of human being is vividly presented.

Crisis of Modernity in ‘The Second Coming’ and ‘AdbhutAndharEk’ (A Strange Darkness)
Ali Akber
Abstract: Both William Butler Yeats and Jibanananda Das experienced the British subjugation in their respective countries and were deeply concerned with the plague of the modern society. ‘The Second Coming’ is Yeats’ one of the greatest poems. Here he laments over the pathetic condition of modern people who ‘fall apart’, with systems collapsed and spiritually bareness for which he foresees the upcoming endless cruel danger in the form of sphinx rather than the hopeful second coming of the Jesus Christ. Whereas, Jibanananda Das envisions the polluted picture of the society of Bengal in his short poem ‘AdbhutAndharEk (A Strange Darkness)’. Das’s portrayal of the society here is dominated by the evil people who are devoid of efficiency, morality, honesty and sympathy. The influential evil people of the society are treading down the good fellows. Thus, the society is in the eminent darkness where the evils rule supreme. Now in this paper, there will be an attempt to make a comparative study of ‘The Second Coming’ by William Butler Yeats and the poem ‘AdbhutAndharEk (A Strange Darkness)’ byJibanananda Das.

Integrated Democracy as a Weapon of Interpersonal Skill in Walt Whitman’s Poetry
Md. Shah Alam Chowdhury
Abstract: American democracy draws Whitman attraction most. This was the ever-burning theme of his poetry. He embraced it and expressed it in its all manifestation-fields, trees,animals, birds, farms, light, air, sea, men, women, and their politics and social transactions, factories, workshops, offices, stories, streets, critics, plains, the countryside and what not. Whitman considered these and many more items as the integral parts of democracy in America. Whitman envisioned democracy not just as a political system but as a way of experiencing the world. In the early nineteenth century, people still harbored many doubts about whether the United States could survive as a country and about whether democracy could thrive as a political system. Whitman tried to remove all kinds of confusion regarding this issue. Whitman tried to be democratic in both life and poetry. He imagined democracy as a way of interpersonal interaction and as a way for individuals to integrate their beliefs into their everyday lives.

A Green Study of Tagore’s Gitanjali
Mili Rahman
Abstract: Relation between human race and non-human part of nature is as old as human consciousness. The most recent approach to this relation is depicted through theory of eco-criticism. Nature is represented in literature in many different ways and arguably two important viewpoints are romanticism and transcendentalism. Among them Romanticism was patronized by Wordsworth and transcendentalism was promoted by American think-tank Ralph Waldo Emerson. Emerson’s idea of Ecocriticism refers to American part and Wordsworth’s idea of Romanticism is a green study of British counterpart. Interestingly both viewpoints are found in Gitanjali. This study highlights the natural aspects reflected in Gitanjali with focus on the idea that Tagore not only floats above the material world in some aesthetic atmosphere, rather, plays a vital part in an immensely complex global system, in which energy, matter, and idea interact.
