Description
Summary:This article surveys religious thought during India's colonial history in the era of poetry that is classified as the modem period of literature which dates from circa 1860 and within the context of this paper, till independence. The poetry of major Hindi poets is assessed to determine what was the thinking on religion amongst the Hindi literary intelligentsia during the rule of British India. The modem period of literature is divided into three categories, each evolving from the preceding era and the categories are as follows: 1. Bharatendu era; 2. Dwivedi era and 3. Post dwivedi era.
