It is an ancient form of poetry in which words and phrases are recited or sung. Poetry is a powerful way to express thoughts, ideas, and viewpoints without relying on any one written language. Indeed, most languages have their own form of poetry that is often more complex than the regular written language. This diversity in style and form is what makes it such a powerful artform: anyone can create or understand poetry in their native tongue no matter how different it seems from the common tongue. And though many poets choose to publish their work for personal satisfaction or renown amongst other poets, there are many cases where they don’t want to make any profit off of their work (such as writing politically charged poems). In this way, the works of a poet may not be as readily available to the public as they would like. In India, Kalidas is often hailed as the 'Shakespeare' of the Sanskrit language. His work has been acclaimed since antiquity and his major influence on Sanskrit poetry can still be seen today. During his lifetime he was given very little recognition for his work due to the lack of a social media presence. In this way, many of his poems have been lost forever with no record of their existence outside of scholars' notes on them. Kalidas was born in 7th century AD in the city of Shakatakulya, now known as Shrivardhan, roughly southwest of modern Lucknow in Uttar Pradesh, India. It is an ancient city that is now part of the district Sagar, though it was important enough to be mentioned by Ptolemy in his geographical guide "Geography" ("Geographia"). Kalidas' family was small so he grew up during a time where he had to help his father earn money. He began learning about Sanskrit grammar at a very young age, which included learning how to compose poetry. He would study what he called the four Vedas of knowledge, the four Bhagavad Gita, of which he is best known for, and more famously the Mahabharata of his time. Kalidas wrote almost all his poems in Sanskrit. He is one of the earliest writers to have used Sanskrit as a common language around the world, where it was widely accepted by intellectuals of both Hinduism and Buddhism. He has written many love poems about Radha, Krishna's consort in the epic Mahabharata. His work is often compared to Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet due to their similar themes of romantic tragedy. Before Kalidas, many of the poems in India existed only in the oral tradition. People would compose poems to be recited during festivals and other events such as weddings. Poets were often considered artists and regarded highly by society because they composed such fantastic works. Poetry was often used to teach moral lessons about Hindu religious beliefs, but sometimes it was solely for entertainment purposes. Not much is known about Indian poetry before Kalidas' lifetime, nor is it likely that any works from that time period still exist today, though some believe that some Buddhist and Jain poetry could have survived to today. cfa1e77820
