Education Edit

Later, Ramanujan became a Fellow of Deccan College, Pune in 1958–59 and a Fulbright Scholar at Indiana University in 1959–62. He was educated in English at the University of Mysore and received his PhD in Linguistics from Indiana University.[6]

Answer:
A.K Ramanujan's poem "The Striders" is a well-known poem that provides a deconstructive analysis of Indian sensibilities poets. This poem describes a human being who is extremely powerful in every way. Strider is the name given to a small water insect in New England.
Explanation:
Although the insect is small, he explains it from a unique perspective. In the first stanza of the poem, he discussed his physical appearance and used it as a source of inspiration. Despite the fact that the insect was strange, he made it a point to study it. Later, he described a water bug as having a bubbled eye, which made it dynamic rather than static. Human ideas, like bubblers, have a short lifespan and come and go. He spoke about Indian tradition, connecting ancient times to the present, and describing the energy of an insect gained through yoga, which allowed him to walk on water without sinking.
