Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poet, novelist, painter and musician, Rabindranath Tagore (1861-1941) is the grand master of Bengali culture. Written during the 1890s, the stories in this selection brilliantly recreate vivid images of Bengali life and landscapes in their depiction of peasantry and gentry, casteism, corrupt officialdom and dehumanizing poverty. Yet Tagore is first and foremost India's supreme Romantic poet, and in these stories he can be seen reaching beyond mere documentary realism towards his own profoundly original vision.

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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tagore's supressed book now available in an English-Bengali edition For the first time in English, here is the sequence of poems Nobel laureate Rabindranath Tagore (1861–1941) worked on his entire life—the erotic and emotionally powerful dialogue about Lord Krishna and his young lover Radha. These "song offerings" are the first poems Tagore ever published, though he passed them off as those of an unknown Bengali religious poet. As the first and last poems Tagore wrote and revised, they represent the entrance and exit to one of the most prolific literary lives of our contemporary world. The translation rights to Tagore’s poetry were tightly guarded until 2001, when they entered the public domain, making publication of this book possible. These English versions are the result of a five-year collaboration between Bengali scholar Tony K. Stewart, who provided richly associative literal translations, and the celebrated poet Chase Twichell, who shaped the poems into English. This bilingual Bengali-English edition also includes the "biography" Tagore wrote of the unknown religious poet who supposedly authored these poems. Rabindranath Tagore was born in Bengal, the youngest son of a religious reformer and scholar. He wrote successfully in all literary genres and is the author of the national anthems for both India and Bangladesh. In his mature years he managed the family estates, which brought him into close touch with common humanity and increased his interest in social reforms. He participated in the Indian nationalist movement, and was a devoted friend of Mahatma Gandhi. Tagore received the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1913; he was knighted in 1915 by the British Government, but later resigned the honor as a protest against British policies in India.
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.
