  William Shakespeare

  William Shakespeare was an English playwright, poet, and actor. He is widely regarded as the greatest writer in the English language and the world's pre-eminent dramatist. He is often called England's national poet and the "Bard of Avon" (or simply "the Bard"). His extant works, including collaborations, consist of some 39 plays, 154 sonnets, three long narrative poems, and a few other verses, some of uncertain authorship. His plays have been translated into every major living language and are performed more often than those of any other playwright.

  Rabindranath Tagore

  Awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1913 "because of his profoundly sensitive, fresh and beautiful verse, by which, with consummate skill, he has made his poetic thought, expressed in his own English words, a part of the literature of the West."
  
  Tagore modernised Bengali art by spurning rigid classical forms and resisting linguistic strictures. His novels, stories, songs, dance-dramas, and essays spoke to topics political and personal. Gitanjali (Song Offerings), Gora (Fair-Faced), and Ghare-Baire (The Home and the World) are his best-known works, and his verse, short stories, and novels were acclaimed—or panned—for their lyricism, colloquialism, naturalism, and unnatural contemplation. His compositions were chosen by two nations as nat

  Akhteruzzaman Elias

  আখতারুজ্জামান ইলিয়াস ছিলেন একজন বাংলাদেশি ঔপন্যাসিক এবং ছোটগল্পকার। তিনি মাত্র দুটি উপন্যাস রচনা করলেও সমালোচকরা তাঁকে একজন শ্রেষ্ঠ বাঙালি ঔপন্যাসিক হিসেবেই বিবেচনা করেন। এই দুটি উপন্যাসের বাইরে ইলিয়াস মাত্র তেইশটি ছোটগল্প এবং বাইশটি প্রবন্ধ লিখেছেন। ইলিয়াস সমাজ, রাষ্ট্র এবং জনগণের একজন একাগ্র পর্যবেক্ষক ছিলেন। তিনি তাঁর লেখার চরিত্রগুলোকে বিভিন্ন সামাজিক শ্রেণি এবং অবস্থানের প্রতীক হিসেবে সুদক্ষভাবে রূপায়ন করতেন। লেখার সময় তিনি চেষ্টা করতেন ঐতিহাসিকভাবে নির্ভুল থাকতে, ফলে তিনি পাঠকের স্বাচ্ছন্দ্যের চেয়ে লেখার অন্তর্নিহিত গুরুত্বকেই বেশি প্রাধান্য দিয়েছেন সবসময়। ক্যান্সারে আক্রান্ত হয়ে অকালমৃত্যুর ফলে তাঁর সৃজনশীল জীবন খুব দীর্ঘা‌য়িত হতে পারেনি, কিন্তু তাঁর লেখাগুলো বাংলা সাহিত্যে ধ্রুপদী সৃষ্টি হিসেবে স্থান পেয়েছে।
