Kant Ke Darshan Ka Tatparya

Acharya has given a special terminological form to the terminology. Krishnachandra Ji also elaborates on his definitions. Acharyas presentation is also very tight, his threads of thought intricately intertwined with each other, deeply interwoven within its fabric. I dont need to remind you that Acharya Krishnachandra Bhattacharya proclaimed freedom of thoughtSwarajduring the freedom movement. He did so in English, which became the language of thoughtand still is. But his statement was naturally both eloquent and expressive: the path to such Swaraj requires the door of ones own language. In this essay, he has presented a completely independent formulation of Kants philosophy, which is unique in its own way. He has also used his own language for this. As far as I know, this is his only work in Bengali. But this single work alone makes it clear that he could give witty expression to the rest of his thoughts in Bengali as well. This mature writing of his offers a clear, rich indication of the possibilities of language. Acharya was a master of Sanskrit. His vocabulary here naturally veers towards the old, refined words. But he seems to be following this path not only naturally, but also with a Swarsen (swarsen). The old vocabulary is not merely conventionalas any vocabulary isit possesses considerable flexibility. Acharya gives this vocabulary a new direction, a new scope, a new dimension.
