Book excerpt: A Collection Of Short Stories, She Gives Us A Glimpse Of Some Of The Women In Rabindranath Tagore'S Writing. Through These Stories We Also Come To Know The Social Conditions In Which Women Were Placed, Almost Always The Victims, And More Interestingly, Responding Differently Yet With The Same Dignity, How Each Handled The Pressure Associated With It. The Treatment Of Women And Their Position In Society Was A Serious Concern To Rabindranath Tagore. Being A Sensitive Man And The Supreme Romantic Poet Of Bengal, He Understood Women In All Their Joy And Sorrow, Hope And Despair, Their Yearnings And Their Dreams. The Violence, Both Psychological And Physical, Against Women In Bengali Society Was All-Pervasive, Cutting Across Class, Caste, Rural And Urban Divide. Its Functioning Was Sometimes Blatant But Often Subtle, Insidious And Invisible. What Was Worse Was That The Society As A Whole, Even The Women, Seemed To Have Got Used To This Slow Poisoning Without Realizing The Effect It Cumulatively Had On It. There Was Very Little Protest And The Poison Gradually Had Settled In The 'Body-Society'. Tagore Saw In The Women Of His Country An Immense Wealth - Their Courage Against All Odds, Their Power Of Survival Under The Worst Possible Conditions And Oppression, Their Forbearance, Their Self-Sacrifice And Gentleness. It Pained Him To See Such Colossal Waste Of So Much Human Treasure.

Download or read book Selected Poems written by Rabindranath Tagore and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2005-03-31 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The poems of Rabindranath Tagore (1861-1941) are among the most haunting and tender in Indian and in world literature, expressing a profound and passionate human yearning. His ceaselessly inventive works deal with such subjects as the interplay between God and the world, the eternal and transient, and with the paradox of an endlessly changing universe that is in tune with unchanging harmonies. Poems such as 'Earth' and 'In the Eyes of a Peacock' present a picture of natural processes unaffected by human concerns, while others, as in 'Recovery - 14', convey the poet's bewilderment about his place in the world. And exuberant works such as 'New Rain' and 'Grandfather's Holiday' describe Tagore's sheer joy at the glories of nature or simply in watching a grandchild play.
