Nazrul in World literature

Nazrul wrote an essay in Paush, 1340 (Dec 1933) in "Bulbul" where he discussed about the nature of the world literature titled, "Bartaman Bishwa Sahitya". This essay described about the knowledge of Nazrul in world literature. He said that there are two types in the world , such as, Shelley (   Percy Bysshe Shelley ,4 August 1792 – 8 July 1822, was one of the major English Romantic poets and is regarded by critics as among the finest lyric poets in the English language) who wrote a poem like "To a skylark" depicting an idea of leaving this world in search of a new beautiful one and the other view is to encircle the world with arms. In one side there are litterateurs like Neguchi, Yeats, Rabindranath and in the other Gorkee (Alexei Maximovich Peshkov  (28 March 1868 – 18 June 1936), primarily known as Maxim (Maksim) Gorky (Russian: Макси́м Го́рький), was a Russian and Soviet writer, a founder of the Socialist Realism literary method and a political activist). Nazrul said;

Nazrul described Keats as a dreamer and Hutman as a simple and forbearing person. John Keats (John Keats (/ˈkiːts/; 31 October 1795 – 23 February 1821) was an English Romantic poet. He was one of the main figures of the second generation of Romantic poets along with Lord Byron and Percy Bysshe Shelley, despite his work only having been in publication for four years before his death)

Walt Whitman (Walter "Walt" Whitman (May 31, 1819 – March 26, 1892) was an American poet, essayist and journalist. A humanist, he was a part of the transition between transcendentalism and realism, incorporating both views in his works. Whitman is among the most influential poets in the American canon, often called the father of free verse_.

Nazrul described the day 14th Dec 1825 as a Historical Date. Because on that day, hundreds of poets and litterateurs , banished in Siberia, were slaughtered at the order of the barbarous king of Russia, Nicholas I (Nicholas I (Николай I Павлович, r Nikolai I Pavlovich; 6 July [O.S. 25 June] 1796 – 2 March [O.S. 18 February] 1855) was the Emperor of Russia from 1825 until 1855. He was also the King of Poland and Grand Duke of Finland. He was the younger brother of his childless predecessor, Alexander I. Nicholas inherited his brother's throne despite the failed Decembrist revolt against him, and went on to become the most reactionary of Russian monarchs).

(Fyodor Mikhailovich Dostoyevsky, 11 November 1821 – 9 February 1881), sometimes transliterated Dostoevsky, was a Russian novelist, short story writer, essayist and philosopher. Dostoyevsky's literary works explore human psychology in the context of the troubled political, social, and spiritual atmosphere of 19th-century Russia. He began writing in his 20s, and his first novel, Poor Folk, was published in 1846 when he was 25. His major works include Crime and Punishment (1866), The Idiot (1869), and The Brothers Karamazov (1880). His output consists of eleven novels, three novellas, seventeen short novels and numerous other works. Many literary critics rate him as one of the greatest and most prominent psychologists in world literature)

Siberia gave birth to the litterateurs like Dostoyvsky, who created Crime and Punishment, Idiot etc.

Then appeared  Maxim Gorky, Chekov etc.

 ' At the end of this essay he mentioned about the other litterateurs of Scandinavia, Europe etc.
