ABSTRACT
Achintyakumar Sengupta is a prominent poet of the Kallol era in Bengali literature. During this time, a world was both destroyed and reborn. As we enter the realm of his poetry, we also witness a stir surrounding the magazine 'Kallol,' which played a significant role in the Bengali literary scene. Sengupta's approach to poetry sets him apart from his contemporaries; for him, poetry represents self-confidence. He believed that poetry brought about a miraculous awakening, revealing profound truths akin to the words of the Supreme God. To Sengupta, the Supreme God embodies the most remarkable poem—poetry is a form of revelation, a blossoming.
He compared poetry to the light of a lamp, illuminating a poet's life. Additionally, there are some unpublished poems in his bibliography. The Kallol poetry group aimed to bring a sense of uniformity to Bengali literature. At that time, Bengali poetry was heavily influenced by Rabindradarshan and Jeevanbhavana, which made it challenging to break free from their dominance. The Kallol group initially maintained an oppositional relationship with Rabindranath Tagore, which later evolved into a respectful acknowledgment. Achintyakumar Sengupta was a pioneer on this path, entering Bengali poetry with the promise of discovering a new world.
In his early work, his poetry was characterized by romanticism, rebellion against Rabindranath, and sentimentality. However, towards the end of his career, themes of God-consciousness and spiritual awareness emerged. This consciousness had been latent in his earlier poetry. We see a gradual development of his belief in God starting from the poem "Ajnma Suravi," which becomes more pronounced in "Uttarayan." He expressed the complex relationship between man and God—both the unity and distance—through his verses.
The poets of the Kallol period employed rebellion and romanticism as mediums to convey their ideas. Yet, while Achintyakumar Sengupta was part of this era, he concluded his poetic journey not with Rati (love), but with Aarti (worship). Along this path, he emerged as a solitary traveler, presenting himself uniquely amidst an epochal crisis.
