Jibanananda's grandfather Sarbānanda Dāśagupta was the first to settle permanently in Barisal. His ancestors came from the Bikrampur region of Dhaka district, from a now-extinct village called Gaupara in the kumarvog area on the banks of the river Padma. Jibanananda Das was born in 1899 in a Baidya family in the small district town of Barisal. poetry does not contain a complete reconstruction of what we call reality we have entered a new world. Poetry and life are two different outpouring of the same thing life as we usually conceive it contains what we normally accept as reality, but the spectacle of this incoherent and disorderly life can satisfy neither the poet's talent nor the reader's imagination. A film inspired by Das's short story Jamrultola, named 'Sunder Jibon' directed by Sandeep Chattopadhyay ( Chatterjee), produced by Satyajit Ray Film And Television Institute won the National Film Award for Best Short Fiction Film at the 50th National Film Awards with Shantanu Bose in the lead. Das's Shrestha Kavita won the Sahitya Academy Award in 1955. ĭas received Rabindra-Memorial Award for Banalata Sen in 1953 at All Bengal Rabindra Literature Convention. Das's early poems exhibit the influence of Kazi Nazrul Islam, but in the latter half of the 20th century, Das's influence became one of the major catalysts in the making of Bengali poetry. His notable works include Ruposhi Bangla, Banalata Sen, Mahaprithibi, Shreshtha Kavita. After his death, it was discovered that apart from poems, Das wrote 21 novels and 108 short stories. Most of his work were hidden, and only seven volumes of his poems were published. ĭas was very underrated poet in his time he wrote profusely, but as he was a recluse and introvert, he did not publish most of his writings during his lifetime.
Some deem the accident as an attempt at suicide. The witnesses said that though the tramcar whistled, he did not stop, and got struck. Das died on 22 October 1954, eight days after being hit by a tramcar. He settled in Kolkata after the partition of India. He taught at many colleges but was never granted tenure. He had a troubling career and suffered financial hardship throughout his life. īorn in Barisal to a Vaidya- Brahmo family, Das studied English literature at Presidency College, Kolkata and earned his MA from Calcutta University.
While not particularly well recognised during his lifetime, today Das is acknowledged as one of the greatest poets in the Bengali language.
