Description
In an essay entitled Ethnographic poetry in North-East India and South-West China published in rocky Mountain reviews special issue 2012 Prof. Mark Bender of Ohio State University makes a comparative analysis of the poetry written in these two regions.
The poems are composed within the waves of dynamic change variously influencing a vast array of cultures in North-East India and South-West China, two areas in close geographical proximity and with ancient cultural linkages but de-linked not only by difficult terrain but by borders imposed by modern nation states. Individual poets draw on strategies of expression that often seem extensions of feelings and concerns of their respective groups.
