Abstract

Poet Binay Majumdar (1934 - 2006) is a wonder-person in the modern Bengali poetry genre. Binay Majumdar, who was really the star of Bengali poetry in the 60s, was not much discussed at the time; but controversy in life and creation never spared him. He left his high-ranking Govt.-job to pursue poetry. His relatives and aquaintances almost all considered him crazy, scorned or avoided him. He living alone for a whole life, living poetry alone ─ this is a great terrible achievement! He is almost a unique figure in history of modern Bengali poetry. His effortless move from modernism to post-modernism, in the constant review of poetry, broke style of poem by one line poetry, sometimes he gave it to a longer poem; Ambiguity of expression in sometimes strange arrangement of thoughts has pushed his creation into unknown circles. His creations are interspersed with the practical applications of mathematical theories.
