Synopsis

Rabindranath Tagore is India's greatest modern poet and the most brilliant creative genius produced by the Indian Renaissance. Tagore's poetry has an impressive wholeness: a magnificent loving warmth, a compassionate humanity, a delicate sensuousness, an intense sense of kinship with nature and a burning awareness of man's plave in the universe. This substantial selection of Tagore's poems and songs has been translated with an illustrated introduction, notes and glossary by bilingual writer Ketaki Kushari Dyson.

About the Author

Born in 1861, Rabindranath Tagore was a key figure of the Bengal Renaissance. He was a household name in Bengal as a poet, a songwriter, a playwright, an essayist, a short story writer and a novelist. In 1913 he was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature and his verse collection Gitanjali came to be known internationally. Tagore was a pioneering literary figure, renowned for his ceaseless innovations in poetry, prose, drama, music and painting, which he took up late in life. His works include novels; plays; essays on religious, social and literary topics; some sixty collections of verse; over a hundred short stories; and more than 2500 songs, including the national anthems of India and Bangladesh. He died in 1941.
