The Composition of Kap Yani 11 in the Opinion of Nai Phi

Abstract

“Nai Phi” (AssaneePolachan) composed certain KapYanee (11-syllable verse-form) as “poems for life” with the principle of perfection, which depicts a particular concept as to balancing forms of art and content. Such a basis underlines ideas and materials as primary and also creates the forms that appear appropriate for these factors. Consequently, this enhances the poems in encouraging thoughts as well as creating social consciences in agreement with Nai Phi’s aims. Futhermore, his poems have affected successive poetic generations regarding a variety of poety for life, especially those of KapYanee.
