Kabita Sinha, (b. Kolkata,1931–1999), Bengali poet, novelist, feminist and radio director. She is noted for her modernist stance, rejecting the traditional housebound role for Bengali women, a theme echoed later in the work of other poets including Mallika Sengupta and Taslima Nasrin. ==Life== Born into a literary family, she started writing as a child. In 1951, while a student of Botany at the Presidency College, Calcutta, she married author and editor Bimal Roy Choudhury, against the wishes of her family. A rebellious spirit, she was involved in dissidence movements in the 1950s. In the process, she never finished her bachelor's degree - this she would complete many years later, from Asutosh College. She worked for some years as a schoolteacher before joining the West Bengal government as an editor. In 1965 she joined All India Radio and was at one point station director at Darbhanga, Bihar. In 1966 she started the poetry magazine ''dainik kabitA'' with her husband. In 1981, she was invited to the Iowa International writer's workshop. In the 1980s she launched a number of programs involving the youth in All India Radio. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kabita Sinha」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
