Description
The Spirit of Oriental Poetry, by Puran Singh, is a classical literary text first published in 1926 during the colonial age. Engaging productively with a wide range of texts including those composed by Shakespeare, Tagore, Goethe, Walt Whitman, Okakura Kakuzo, Hafiz, Jaidev, Bhai Vir Singh and many more, the book offers a fine blending of poetic sensibilities of diverse literary traditions. Using the strokes of his lyrical pen, the author vividly celebrates the mystical awe that engulfs these literary works of art.
