Abstract

The analysis of the present work is based on sets of poems, which contains selected poems. The main thrust of the current work is on the history of love and protest, is to pick or choose the sets of poems from the poet that have tended to understand the meaning of love and protest. The present researcher had to do more to use the collection of poetry by Kamala Das as Die's anthologies with other poets such as Suresh Kohli, Pritish Nandi and other Indian poets were conveniently rendered accessible than their individual anthologies. The only anthologies by Das were to find the original touch. Therefore, it was attempted to access the anthologies containing the selected poems after completing the list of Das poems. When selecting the poems of Kamala Das, special attention was devoted to the poems related to love and protest, betrayal, desire, spiritual love, love-lust and love-hate.
