|  | | Aesthetic of John Keats: An Indian Approach
Keats' conception of Beauty was holistic and transcendental being closer to the Indian concept summed up in the expression - satyam shivam sundaram. It had multichromatic grandeur of a rare imaginative quality known as synaesthesia. Keats believed that the real object of Beauty can provide pleasure to the senses, happiness to the mind and joy to the spirit simultaneously. This book is a study of aesthetic in his poetry with an Indian approach.

| |  | | Contemporary Indian Spiritual Poetry in English: Critical Explorations
Spiritualism is an integral part of literature. And poets have been regarded as sages and seers since the time of the Vedas and Upanishads. They have produced poetry in the form of incantation and enriched Indian poetry with their spiritual vision.

Indian ethos and ethnicity are the essential elements in Indian poetry in English. The early Indian English poets explored the mythical, traditional and cultural characteristics as the themes of their poetry and succeeded in establishing themselves as true poets. The wide recognition of Indian English poetry paved the ground for new poets to come up with varied themes. The poetry written, published and read in the English language has surpassed all poetry written in other languages today. This fact has given rise to a wider scope of Indian English poetry for study and research purposes.

“English has become the world’s way of communicating internationally and inter-culturally just as the Christian Calendar is the world’s way of tracking time and as the Indo-Arabic numbers are the world’s way of counting.” So the importance of the English language is inevitable.

The Melodies of Immortality is a collection of poems contributed by fifty one established as well as the budding poets of India.
The book is meant to promote creative writing as it is considered a derelict area and no heed is paid to this genre of literature. In modern time prose writing has its vast readers unlike that of poetry. Prose is the reflection of experiences whereas poetry is the songs of soul. Prose makes one wise whereas poetry makes one generous. The beauty of poetry touches the soul and makes one soar in the realm of delight where sky is no limit. Every poem has its own soul. And every poet has his/her own vision. Early poetry began by the seers or sages. In some cases those poets were even addressed as g | |  | | The Social, Cultural and Spiritual Dimensions of Modern Indian Poetry in En
