A talk on a superannuated life may not draw much readership, yet the
talk should go on to unfold new mission of this phase of the life. The
people who fought like anything to look after their family found hardly
any time to look beyond earning money and meeting needs of their loved
ones at home, it is unlikely they would find interests in spending time
in cultural practices like average individuals visible here and there.
Interestingly, these averages or the ordinaries are unfortunately
the majority in work shops and offices who unless forced upon never
liked to lay interest in trade union movement or take part in political
activities.
In sharp
contrast to present day Bengal, in our time i.e. during 1970s, 1980s,
1990s, the white colour jobs produced many world class intellectuals
having made their pen mightier than the sword. The communist progressive
ideology inspired those intellectuals to contribute new thoughts in
building a new human society free from exploitation from capitalist
exploitation, free from religious vandalism and superstition and hatred
among the human race. The faith was for building a new world order comfortable to all human race other than those few stooges of crony
capitalism and imperialism.
A bunch of young intellectuals was born to follow the path left by their predecessors. The readers started to hear stories and poetries in different form and content, the painters drew colours on canvas on a different stroke. The singers were able to change the taste of the songs and brought down the listeners from the unreal heaven of love to the loveless ones suppressed under existing repressive system of the society. In finer words, the golden period of Bengal had inspired and created a generation who learned to look beyond their petty personal interests of life. A new set of values came in our way to cherish. But those days are gone without bringing in any qualitative changes in thoughts process of the present generation. Yet a talk of post-modernism is displayed on the world of intellectualism.
