INTRODUCING NAZRUL ISLAM

This book is designed to serve as a brief introduction to the life and works of Nazrul Islam. Although it was first published in 1955, the present edition is substantially different from the first.

I have read with profit most critical and biographical writings on Nazrul Islam by those who wrote before me, and I owe them a debt of gratitude.

There are a few printing errors in the book. The punctuation mark has been misplaced and the article dropped in a number of places. 1835 (p. 36 1.15) should read 1823. On p. 17 (1. 5) ‘Soon after’ should havu been ‘Afterwards’.

‘Oppression’ has been misspelt in 1. 13 p. 12. ‘His’ has become ‘its’ in 1. 15. p.54. I regret these and such other errors aa might have escaped my notice.
