Question

write a critical appreciation of tonu Dutt's poem Sita 10 marks .​

Answer 1

Answer:

The poem "Sîta" is from Dutt's Ancient Ballads and Legends of Hindustan (1882). It tells the story of "Three happy children in a darkened room" being told the legend of Sîta by their mother. The mother tells the children all about the scene of Sîta's abandonment, ranging from the animals in the woods to the presence of the "poet-anchorite" Valmiki, who wrote the Ramayana. The children sympathize with the plight of Sîta, but in the middle of the story, the mother is "hushed at last" by an unknown figure, likely her husband. The poem ends with a description of the children, rapt with attention at their mother's story, and the last two lines consist of the speaker's nostalgia for the days when she—likely one of the children herself—would gather around her mother and listen intently to stories.
