Abstract

G. B. Senanayake could be identified as a poet who was stingy critiqued within the Sinhalese poetic field. He succeeded in signifying his own identity, approaching a different turn than the independent device which prevailed in the second poetic generation of the Colombo era. He introduced free verse to Sinhalese Literature. His short stories and poetic composition titled ‘paligenema’ is considered a landmark in the Sinhalese poetic field. Therefore, it could be concluded that there lies a possibility of paying special attention to words that identity the poetic dictum of G. B. Senanayake.
