About the Book
Anugalper Utsha O Gatiprakiti (Bengali Version) is a pioneering critical study that explores the origin, evolution, characteristics, and literary significance of the Bengali Anugalpa or micro-story. Compact in form yet profound in impact, the Anugalpa represents a unique literary genre that combines the emotional resonance of a short story with the brevity and suggestiveness of poetry. Within its limited space, it can express ideas, emotions, philosophies, observations, and imaginative insights with remarkable intensity.
In this comprehensive work, Shambhunath Bandopadhyay traces the roots of the Anugalpa to ancient literary and oral traditions, including Vedic expressions, aphorisms, riddles, proverbs, folk narratives, moral tales, and other concise forms of communication. The book demonstrates how these influences gradually evolved into a distinct literary genre possessing its own identity and artistic principles.
The author also examines the relationship of Anugalpa with various forms of literature and art, including poetry, drama, songs, essays, novels, letters, painting, and dance. Through insightful analysis, the book highlights how a micro-story can condense vast emotional and intellectual experiences into a few carefully crafted words, creating what the author describes as an “atomic explosion” of thought within the reader’s consciousness.
An invaluable resource for students, researchers, writers, and literature enthusiasts, this book offers a deep understanding of one of the most dynamic and increasingly popular forms of modern Bengali literature.
