Synopsis
In this compelling collection of essays, Rabindranath Tagore, poet, philosopher, and the first Asian Nobel Laureate, offers a profound critique of aggressive nationalism. Written during a time of global unrest and colonial rule, Nationalism urges readers to look beyond narrow patriotism and instead embrace a universal spirit of humanity. Drawing from the contexts of India, Japan, and the West, Tagore reflects on how unchecked nationalism can stifle culture, conscience, and creativity.
