In Creative Unity (1922) we have some of the finest and wisest of Tagore’s collected essays in English. Essays like The Poet’s Religion and The Creative Ideal reveal some of his fundamental tenets of art and aesthetics, of life and religion, and of the religion of the poet. The essays in Sadhana (1913) tell us of the ancient spirit of India, as revealed in our sacred texts and manifested in the life of today. Man consists of a lecture delivered in 1933 at Andhra University. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt speaks about the Supreme Man, who is an immediate object of the most intimate awareness and challenges man to strike after perfection. Personality (1917) is a more structured exposition of Tagore’s spiritual thoughts. In Nationalism in India (1917) he criticize the nation-state in both East and West and offers his vision of a society independent of it. Crisis in Civilisation (Sabhyatar Samkat) was the last public address delivered by Tagore on 14 April 1941. The essays incorporated from The religion of Man (1941) are an extensive and commanding exposition of Tagore’s understanding of the meaning and significance of religion in the cultural history of man. Greater India (1921) deals with the Swadeshi Movement in Bengal, one of the turbulent periods in Indian history.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eContents\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCREATIVE UNITY\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Poet’s Religion\u003cbr\u003eThe Creative Ideal\u003cbr\u003eThe Religion of the Forest\u003cbr\u003eEast and West\u003cbr\u003eThe Modern Age\u003cbr\u003eThe Nation\u003cbr\u003eAn Eastern University\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSADHANA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Relation of the Individual to the Universe\u003cbr\u003eThe Problem of Evil\u003cbr\u003eThe Problem of Self\u003cbr\u003eRealization in Love\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMAN\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLecture II: Supreme Man\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePERSONALITY\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhat is Art?\u003cbr\u003eThe World of Personality\u003cbr\u003eWoman\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNATIONALISM\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNationalism in India\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCRISIS IN CIVILISATION \u0026amp; OTHER ESSAYS\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCrisis in Civilisation\u003cbr\u003eCivilisation and Progress\u003cbr\u003eThe Religion of an Artist\u003cbr\u003eThe Principle of Literature\u003cbr\u003eMessage to the Parliament of Religions\u003cbr\u003eThe Philosophy of Leisure\u003cbr\u003eIdeals of Education\u003cbr\u003eThe Educational Mission of the Visva-Bharati \u003cbr\u003eRace Conflict\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTHE RELIGION OF MAN\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMan’s Universe\u003cbr\u003eThe Creative Spirit\u003cbr\u003eSpiritual Union\u003cbr\u003eThe Vision\u003cbr\u003eThe Music Maker\u003cbr\u003eThe Artist\u003cbr\u003eThe Meeting\u003cbr\u003eThe Baul Singers of Bengal\u003cbr\u003eNight and Morning\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGREATER INDIA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEast and West in Greater India\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The India Club","offers":[{"title":"Rabindranath Tagore \/ Rupa \/ Paperback","offer_id":40776283357353,"sku":"12843","price":33.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/1048\/4393\/products\/12843_6f31a6c9-b05b-4b5e-bafd-267f730e5f59.jpg?v=1625524414"},{"product_id":"12972-the-king-of-the-dark-chamber","title":"The King of The Dark Chamber","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAuthor: Rabindranath Tagore\u003cbr\u003ePublisher: Macmillan\u003cbr\u003eYear: 2001\u003cbr\u003eLanguage: English\u003cbr\u003ePages: 184\u003cbr\u003eISBN\/UPC (if available): 0333903510\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e Description\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe queen wants to see the King, whose visits are only during the night, in daylight.

A sort of kindred relationship born of compassion and affection, kindness and conciliation is expressed in the words of prayer that tell a new truth: man is never along. The joys and sorrows, agonies and ecstasies, of the human mind seek consolation not merely within oneself but in an intimate association with all in and around one. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhat makes Tagore’s prayer so vibrant and arresting, living and pulsating? How does he come closet to our diverse thoughts and emotions through his songs of prayer? How does he remain an eternal iconoclast in dealing with the prayers of the human heart? Perhaps love is the only key to negotiate all these and other allied questions as Tagore marvelously spells out in his exquisite songs of prayer. Here is a creator of songs par excellence who unfolds the glory of love in course of prayer of an enviably inimitable manner. In fact, love opens the unknown vista of the human heart that never yields to desolation, disappointment, dullness,, depression, dissociation or death.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eContents\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA NOTE ON TRANSLATION\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRABINDRANATH TAGORE: A BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eINTRODUCTION\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSONGS\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePlease accept me now, O Lord\u003cbr\u003eAmidst the world, shower drops of peace\u003cbr\u003eSing shall I with thy tune\u003cbr\u003eWith thy own hands enkindle the lam\u003cbr\u003eThou hast come, O Light\u003cbr\u003eBeneath that seat\u003cbr\u003eAwake, my mind, in the world of goodness\u003cbr\u003eI could not offer thee all I have\u003cbr\u003eIn the temple of the heart\u003cbr\u003eIn thunder your flute plays on\u003cbr\u003eStealthily do thou comet\u003cbr\u003eGive a touch in life\u003cbr\u003eO with kindness\u003cbr\u003eWith joy of love\u003cbr\u003eHow long shall I remain seated\u003cbr\u003eEveryday shall I sing thy pleasant song\u003cbr\u003eTrue, good and full of love\u003cbr\u003eUnite me with them\u003cbr\u003eMy voice beckons Him\u003cbr\u003eTime and again did you turn me away\u003cbr\u003eWith the light of the new sun\u003cbr\u003eSeated am I at the door\u003cbr\u003eLord, many a play have I played\u003cbr\u003eIn the journey of new life\u003cbr\u003ePardon me, too\u003cbr\u003eThe orphan and the distressed\u003cbr\u003eThus Have I received\u003cbr\u003eIn the distressed heart, O Lord\u003cbr\u003eTake, take, take up from the ground\u003cbr\u003eMy message touches my heart\u003cbr\u003eO with great hopes\u003cbr\u003eIf like the cloud of a storm\u003cbr\u003eO Lord of Life\u003cbr\u003eIf you wish\u003cbr\u003eIn wealth and people\u003cbr\u003eO keep me close to the door\u003cbr\u003eTreading on the way\u003cbr\u003eO Great Life\u003cbr\u003eEffulge my heart\u003cbr\u003eGive strength\u003cbr\u003eStand before my eyes\u003cbr\u003eWhere you are\u003cbr\u003eI seek Him alone\u003cbr\u003eIf thou dost not give love\u003cbr\u003eThat sweet countenance flashes\u003cbr\u003eWhat a hesitation\u003cbr\u003eI know Him\u003cbr\u003eMy lamp is put out\u003cbr\u003eIn silence would you remain\u003cbr\u003eWho is that intoxicator\u003cbr\u003eWith thy love\u003cbr\u003eDrown this darkness\u003cbr\u003eO Lord OF the World\u003cbr\u003eHow far more away\u003cbr\u003eWhat would I offer thee\u003cbr\u003eComplete Works of Rabindranath Tagore\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The India Club","offers":[{"title":"Mohit Chakrabarti \/ New Age Books \/ Paperback","offer_id":40776445296809,"sku":"19480","price":14.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/1048\/4393\/products\/19480_24916d4d-d426-4fc4-a98a-2be984ee51e0.jpg?v=1625497462"},{"product_id":"19847-gurudev-rabindranath-tagore-biography-with-gitanjali","title":"Gurudev Rabindranath Tagore  -  Biography with Gitanjali","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAuthor: Rekha Sigi\u003cbr\u003ePublisher: Diamond\u003cbr\u003eYear: 2006\u003cbr\u003eLanguage: English\u003cbr\u003ePages: 143\u003cbr\u003eISBN\/UPC (if available): 8189182900\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e Description\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRabindranath Tagore was such a poet whose passion was to depict human emotions and sentiments as such.

The events in the novel deal with the period 1905-7, a period of tremendous political unrest in Bengal.  The public upheaval takes place alongside another revolution-that of women’s emancipation and a new gender equation.  Ghare Bhaire (The Home and the World ) is the first fictional exploration of the tangled web of crucial issues related to the two spheres, the home and the world, in early twentieth century Bengal.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTowards Freedom is a collection of critical essays on the issues raised by Tagore’s novel in a contemporary world where differences of religion, region, class, caste, gender, etc., constantly demand to be addressed.  It focuses upon the crafting of the novel out of complex historical contexts of caste, class and gender politics.  By examining the play of ideologies in this novel, the anthology aims to help students recognize the importance of locating imaginative literature within its histories.  Given that most of these structured hierarchies of oppression function powerfully in our lives even today, Towards Freedom stresses the continuing relevance of engaging with the issues raised by a novel which looks at the private and the political as intertwined.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEDITORS:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSaswati Sengupta, Shampa Roy and Sharmila Purkayastha teach English at Miranda House, Delhi University.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCONTRIBUTORS:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNiharranjan Ray, Sambuddha Chakrobarti, Shampa Roy, Saswati Sengupta, Shirshendu Chakrabarti, Sharmila Purkayastha, Sumanta \u003cbr\u003eBanerjee, Sekhar Bandyopadhyay.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eContents\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAcknowledgements\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNotes on Contributors\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIntroduction \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Role of Tagore’s Literature\u003cbr\u003eNIHARRANJAN RAY\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHOME\/GHARE\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAndare Antare: Inner Worlds\u003cbr\u003eSAMBUDDHA CHAKRBARTI\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTeaching the Wife: Miss Gilby, the \u003cbr\u003eEnglish Women and the Antahpur\u003cbr\u003eSHAMPA ROY\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGoddesses, Women, and the Clutch of \u003cbr\u003eMetaphors in Ghare Baire\u003cbr\u003eSASWATI SENGUPTA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBeyond the intricate Web of Words: An Essay on\u003cbr\u003eTagore’s Ghare Baire\u003cbr\u003eSHIRSHENDU CHAKRABARTI\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWORLD\/BAIRE\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eContesting Modernities: The Two Men in Ghare Baire\u003cbr\u003eSHARMILA PURKAYASTHA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Peasant in Ghare Baire\u003cbr\u003eSUMANTA BANERJEE\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUnderstanding Panchu: Swadeshi, Ghare Baire, and\u003cbr\u003eThe Lower-Caste Peasants of Eastern Bengal\u003cbr\u003eSEKHAR BANDYOPADHYAY\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMirjan from the Margins\u003cbr\u003eSASWATI SENGUPTA, SHAMPA ROY,\u003cbr\u003eSHARMILA PURKAYASTHA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSelect Bibliography\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIndex\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The India Club","offers":[{"title":"Saswati  Sengupta \/ Orient Longman \/ Paperback","offer_id":40776495890601,"sku":"22282","price":20.1,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/1048\/4393\/products\/22282_6eebfa4a-c122-4d94-8362-537d2a137aa2.jpg?v=1625517539"},{"product_id":"23397-all-time-great-stories-of-rabindranath-tagore","title":"All Time Great Stories of Rabindranath Tagore","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAuthor: Rabindranath Tagore\u003cbr\u003eTranslator(s)\/ Edito: B.

So, naturally his stories too contain a deep emotional content. The human relationships have been worded delicately in them. The poetic imagination of the writer lifts the stories to the heights of idealism and at the same time, the earthly thoughts keep them tethered to ground realities. These stories woven with poetic craft, deft words and embroidery of emotional feelings turn them into a very fascinating tapestry that leaves deep impression on the reader’s mind.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt took a long period for Tagore’s creations to reach the non-Bangla readership in vernacular section.
