Sisir Kumar Das (1936-2003) was a poet, playwright, translator, comparatist and a prolific scholar of Indian literature.
•
Although he was awarded the prestigious Rabindra Puraskar by the Government of West Bengal twice (for The Shadow of the Cross in 1976 and for The Artist in Chains in 1987), it was for his scholarly rather than literary works.
•
An integrated history of Indian literatures remained unwritten until Sahitya Akademi undertook the project and Das was entrusted with the task.
