The article presents how the notion of the ‘free’ poets in Hindi literature of the 17th–18th centuries, the Rītikāl, developed in the first half of the 20th century with influence from the Hindi Neoromanticism, Chāyāvād. It shows the exaggerated nature of today’s dominant view, which presents the ‘free poets’ as a poetic movement in revolt against the ‘stagnant and imitative’ nature of the poetry of their days. It also looks at some Chāyāvādī ideology that can be paralleled with ideas attributed to the poets free from convention
