Beauty in the Words: Exploring Comparative Aesthetics in Poetry

By Suresh Thankappan Janardhanan

It is an attempt to explore certain areas of intersection between the Indian and Western aesthetic theories on the response to poetry. The exploration will shed considerable light on some significant aesthetic problems by bringing out hitherto unsuspected affinities. The central idea underlying the present study is that the Indian concept of 'rasa', interpreted dialectically, that is, as one that unites and integrates opposites, solves some of the outstanding aesthetic problems discussed in the West.
