Disruption of Nature And  Modernism in Germain Droogenbroodt's Poetry

Dr. Manoranjan Das 

        Germain Droogenbroodt, the contemporaneous great poet of Belgium appraises thatthe disruption of nature is significant because it leads to a cascade of severe and often irreversible negative consequences for the environment, the global economy, and human well-being, and, these disruptions threaten the very foundation of life on Earth by undermining essential ecosystem services such as clean air, fresh water, food security, and climate regulation. He performs through his poetry that the nature like river, water  where indoctrination is sometimes attached about.Thus, he writes,

'Rivers overflow their banks
Houses are demolished cars swept away
By the raging waters:
Man has disrupted nature.

In vain
Wisdom's warning words.

Would a chip, implanted in the brain
Offer more wisdom or even more blindness
And indoctrination?'1
         Eventually speaking, Germain Droogenbroodt places his thought that healthy ecosystems like forests and wetlands act as vital carbon sinks, and, their destruction releases stored carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, while the loss of trees means less CO2 is absorbed, thus accelerating global warming and extreme weather events like floods, droughts, and heatwaves.Thus, he int akes,
        'Ecosystem services are crucial for agriculture.    
      ........................

Land degradation and water pollution reduce soil fertility and the availability of fresh drinking water, threatening food security for billions of people.'2
           Germain Droogenbroodt is an internationally known poet, yearly invited at most prestigious international poetry festival. He is also translator, publisher and promoter of modern international poetry
He wrote short stories and literary reviews, but mainly poetry, so far 17 poetry books published in 31 countries, honored with dozens of international poetry awards. As founder of the Belgian publishing house POINT Editions, he published 80 collections of mainly modern international poetry festivals in Spain. He also set up the internationally greatly appreciated project Poetry Borders, publishing twice a modern poem from all over the world in more than 30 languages. Germain Droogenbroodt visited countries time the Far East which  left deep traces in his philosophical poetry. The Chinese pretend his poetry is Taoist and ZEN. The Indian publisher Thachom Royil Rajeevan compared his poetry with the poetry pf kRabindtanath Tagore. Gemain Droogenbroodt has been recommanded in 2017 for the Nobel Prize in Literature.

        Profoundly speaking, Germain Droogenbroodt glimmers thatmodernism is significant for its radical departure from traditional forms, leading to a global transformation in art, literature, and design that reflected the rapid changes of the early 20th century,and, its influence is seen in the embrace of new techniques like stream of consciousness in literature, or new materials and functional design in architecture, all while exploring themes of alienation, individualism, and the search for new meaning in a world shaken by industrialization and war. Thus, he assigns

        'Modernism marked a definitive break from Victorian morality and traditional realism, which were seen as
outdated in the face of a rapidly changing world.
      .........................
Artists and writers experimented with new styles and narrative techniques, such as cubism and surrealism in painting, or the use of stream of consciousness and fragmented plots in literature.'3
      Wellifyingly speaking, Germain Droogenbroodt artifies that modernist works often explored themes of urban life, industrialization's effects on people, and a loss of faith in established institutions, leading to narratives that reflected inner consciousness and psychological complexity. He adores that the modenism reaches to smart phone where the number of notable expectation fascinates all the time.Thus, he writes,

' In the waiting room
Sits a large number of travellers.
With one notable exception
All of them are busy
With a little thing called smart phone
That fascinates them all the time.'4

           Accurately speaking, Germain Droogenbroodt  brightens his thought through poetry in such a way that modernism or present situation is put to moment or time where another readiness is owed to make anything.Thus, he trusts,
      ' Try to be happy in this very present moment; and put not off being so to a time to come; as though that time should of another make from this, which is already come, and is ours.'6

         Knowledgeably speaking, Germain Droogenbroodt craftifies that there was a belief where  design could improve society, which led to a rejection of ornamental old excess in favor of prioritizing function and simplicity, and,  modernism served as a direct response to the massive social and technological transformations of the era, from industrialization and urbanization to new scientific theories like Einstein's theory of relativity. He imposes on the above idea that time with the meaningful stories through modernism that is to be worldified.Thus , he writes,
'With two thumbs at the same time
They write their stories,
Meaningful or not they are written,
And sent out into the world.
Only one person does not write, but reads,
He reads a book.
Does not he have anything to say?'6
        Countifiebly speaking, Germain Droogenbroodt has drawn and widen his idea through poetry where the material object is multiplied with disruption of nature and modernism.
