Henry Louis Vivian Derazio
(A persona of new thinking)
Henry Louis Vivian Derazioheralded from heaven like a subtle drop of bliss to his parents, Francis Derazio and Sophie Johnson Derazio in April 1809. He is popularly known to be a radical thinker of his times and have contributed unfathomably to the world of self-thinking and learning. Said that, he can be reverently called someone not less than a pioneer who introduced western education, especially the literature and the science part of it, vehemently to the fresh vivacious minds of India. He’s much more than an iconoclast and a resolutory thinker – he is a young driving force in the sphere of knowledge-seeking excursion.
Henry Louis Derazio isn’t just a name of high honor and rendezvous in the world of poetry. This name is synonymous to spectrums of revolutionary mindset. His short span of personal as well as professional life reckons at the philosophy of living less but living best. He’s said to be one of the youngest minds who joined the galaxy of new age poetry. He began sparking up his poetic art at a time when India was still struggling to run out from the hegemony of the Britishers and her bigotry.
Being a patriot at heart, he was a marvel of English language especially when it came to twinkling the language with a touch of fresh fancies. To add to this, he euphorically operated on his brooding and brought it out to the reach of classes of students when he began teaching students at a jovial age in a prestigious institution where professors thrice his age taught. His journey essentially throws a contemplative light upon the mushrooming of ideas – igniting ideas, which was never proportional to his age.
Derazio enjoyed the commandability from the garden of poets, but then, he was not less spiritly received by classes of students, and consequently,he was commended the elite class of society too for his unpayable contribution to the heart of education. His perspectives, be it in poetry or teaching, largely hailed the cultivation of self-analysis.
Derazio, in all possible manifestations, represented the igniting culture of brooding. He sailed on the river of driving ideas throughout his life and prompted others to follow the same culture.
Hence, Derazio Mission School always happens to seek out its roots in the above thinking-oriented voyage of the undisputed thinker, writer, and educator, in his timeless vision of a creation-based learning pivotally.
This institution has fundamentally one simple mission and it is to stimulate learners to extract his own sense out of what he reads and is taught round the clock, within and without academic circumference.
In most precious words, Henry Derazio Mission School is soulfully committed to turn the learning into an exquisite process of self-discovery, both in the heart and the mind, which eventually liberates everyoneand helps view his true self and thereby undertake the responsibility which he exists for.
