Practice of Humanism and Human Relations in Select Poems

Arnold has said in his immortal word¿----- that poetry at bottom is a criticism of life; that the greatness of a poet lies in his powerful and beautiful application of ides to life-to the question How to live?¿ This book proposes humanism of three poets Whitman, Hughes and Dove. Moreover, the modernists and progressive thinkers shape the perspectives of the three poets and their positive concepts and notions accept and acknowledge humans in their irrational and rational behaviour, and in the passionate as well as civilized nature. They voices for the fundamental tenets of equality before law, equality of opportunities, order, unity freedom and the democratic process. Their poems depicts the denotative and connotative character. They reach out to the mind and art of the perceptive and critically oriented readers, and they create the experience the unexpected pep poems. The poor poetic vendors sold humanity in the form of poems at the music market. It is no wisdom to remain stuck to the past, when future beckons us.
