Abstract:
Keki N Daruwalla is one of the very well known modern India poets writing in English whose poems gives a picture of plethora of ideas of ecological consciousness. Hawk and Wolf are his very stricking poems which suggest how anthropocentric activities by man without any ethical considerations have continued to create a havoc in the ecological system. The excess of anthropocentric desires overlooked intrinsic value and worth of non human life. The paper will attempt to draw attention to the anthropocentrism with lack of ethical considerations in context of poems Hawk and Wolf. It reveals an ethical necessity and the requirement of a biocentric worldview.
