Prominent scholars from India and abroad discuss the poetry of Charu Sheel Singh who has emerged as a major Indian English poet of the eightecs. The canon of Indian English Poetry is in crisis. The poetry which be called Indian is masquerading as the mainstream Indian English Poetry. Charu Sheel’s poetry thoroughly Indianises this poetic tradition by its scriptural consciousness and mythographic imagination. Singh uses a highly post-modernist Idiom to make the antiquated contemporary. Prof. Singh has evolved a new poetic genre in the process which substitutes the epic proper and renovates upon the traditional forms of poetry. The postmodernist idiom, moreover, does not destroy the sublime which is the very essence of the Indianness. Such poetry canonizes itself in the eternity of time without the distinctions of he past, present or the future.
