Sharatchandra Chattopadhyay PDF Cetak E-mail
Sharat Chandra Chattopadhyay (Bangla: শরত্চন্দ্র চট্টোপাধ্যায় Shôrotchôndro Chôţţopaddhae), also known as Saratchandra Chattopadhyay or Sharat Chandra Chatterjee (15 September 1876 - 16 January 1938) was an author from India. In the early part of the 20th century, he was considered the most popular Bengali novelist and story-teller after Rabindranth Tagore.

Background and writing

Swagato Ganguly (2005) and Sreejata Guha (2002) both note that Sarat Chrandra was born into poverty (which Guha describes as "dire" on page vi) in Debanandapur, Hooghly, India. Though his family was occasionally supported by other family members, Saratchandra's lack of financial stability would influence his writing in years to come. Although he began as a fine arts student, Saratchandra left his studies due to his persistent state of poverty. He got his early education residing at his paternal uncle's (Pishemosai) house.

His work represented rural Bengali society and he often wrote against social superstitions and oppression. For a short period, he was a sanyashi, a Hindu ascetic who abandons the material and social worlds. His first published story was, 'Mandir'.

He died in Kolkata of liver cancer in 1938.
