Kumaran Asan - Poetic Discourses in Renaissance and Transcendentalism
Karunakaran B Shaji
Abstract :
This paper offers a socio–political and historical analysis of the major poetic works of Kumaran Asan, one of the most influential poets of Malayalam. It can be seen that in Asan two distinct streams of influence are at work. Arguably the most perceptive influence on the poet had been that of Sree Narayana Guru, Social Reformer, Scholar and Poet. But at the same time, the pro–active role that Asan took over by challenging the upper caste hegemony too left its mark on his poetry.
