Abstract

After Rabindra Nath Tagore a huge number of poets tried to leave the beaten track of simple narrative and dared to try something new Krittibas the magazine just created a platform for those who practiced it So critics marked them as decadents who wrote poems without any meaning and their works are nothing but hodge-podge Later when a new generation of readers admired these poets particularly Sunil Gangopadhyay and Shakti Chattopadhyay a new chapter was added in the history of Bengali Poetry Nowadays no one can ignore the contribution of the magazine and the Shakti-Sunil duo Without following any western ism they just changed the surface of poetic culture Remembering those days their contribution seems much more effective for the budding poets Their Confessional tone of poetry is an established genre and demands much attention
