A.K.Ramanujan: A Study Poem by Bijay Kant Dubey

A.K.Ramanujan is an expatriate academician dealing with vyangya, vakrokti, hashya, with irony, humour and caricature. Outwardly he seems to be a professor of English, but is in reality one of South Asian, Dravidian languages as because the folks stuffs are strong in him.

To read him is to be reminded of astrologers, horoscope-makers, astronomers, alchemists and fortune-tellers. Generally, family matters and samsakaras engage him. To use irony with undertones, overtones, to joke with his chief property.

A master poet of the oblique approach he is satiric and ironical as he laughs down seeing them, sometimes tries to correct what it ails our society. Men and manners engage him and rites and rituals come up for a purview and understanding.
