Mahadevi Varma
Mahadevi Varma, renowned Hindi poet, freedom fighter, educationist and women’s rights activist, received the prestigious Gyanpeeth Award for her invaluable contribution to literature on April 27, 1982, which recognizes outstanding contribution to Indian literature, on this day in 1982.
Varma was a transformative poet, essayist and advocate for women’s rights in India. Her writings often draw the spotlight towards the experience of being a woman.
Mahadevi Varma is considered one of the spearheads of the Chhayavad movement in Hindi literature. The movement (1914-1938) marked a period of romanticism in Hindu poetry. She is widely regarded as the "modern Meera".
She was the Principal, and then the Vice-Chancellor of Prayag Mahila Vidyapeeth, a woman's residential college in Allahabad.
Varma was awarded the Padma Bhushan in 1956 and the Padma Vibhushan in 1988. She was the recipient of the Sahitya Akademi Fellowship in 1979.
Mahadevi Varma was born in 1907 and grew up near Allahabad in Uttar Pradesh. Her father, a professor, encouraged her to pursue her education. Her mother, in particular, inspired her to learn both Sanskrit and Hindi. She married at the age of nine, but continued to reside with her parents.
Her collection of short stories, ‘Sketches from My Past’, portrays her experiences while being principal of an all-girls school.
Varma has been celebrated by several popular Hindi poets, including Suryakant Tripathi Nirala, Sumitra Nandan Pant, and their contemporaries. She died in 1987.
