Tagore As Philosophical Voyager: A Critical Study Of Gitanjali

A multi-faceted creative personality, Rabindranath Tagore is one of the greatest stalwarts of both English and Bengali literatures. He created a Renaissance in India, where people were awakened by the great corpus of creative work produced during the country's struggle for independence from the British. Tagore was undoubtedly a champion of this literary protest. He produced masterpieces in Bengali literature and later translated them into English. Gitanjali, his masterpiece collection of poems with a foreword by William Butler Yeats, is renowned for its rhythmic, optimistic, and lyrical nature. It won Tagore the Nobel Prize for Literature, the first awarded to an Asian writer, and a knighthood. In this landmark study, noted Indian scholar P. V. Laxmiprasad offers the most comprehensive critical study of Tagore's work to date.
