| Abstract: | One of the strongest voices from the North-east Mamang Dai is a famous poet and novelist from Adi Tribal Community representing the indigenous, disappearing culture and customs. Dai’s poetry is the poetry of landscape— rivers, mountains, the flash of summer, starry skies, and incessant rain form central motifs in almost all her poems. Nature here is mysterious, verdant with myth and dense with sacred memory. Amidst the delightful portrayal of beautiful landscape with facile, fluid lyricism, the poetess upholds the theme of human mortality, temporary and ephemeral nature of human life, the continuous cycle of life and death and contrasts it with the permanence of ‘Nature’. The strength of the poetry is its unforced clarity, its ability to steer calm of easy flamboyance. In her poem “Small Towns and The River”, (River Poems, 2004) Padmashri Mamang Dai—a true born literary artist of Arunachal Pradesh, voice of modern women writers of Indian writing English contrasts the Perishability of human life with the Permanence of rituals and Nature. |
