Moving, heart-felt prose poems by the beloved and much admired Bengali poet and mystic who first achieved international fame (and a Nobel Prize) in 1913 with his translation of these moving poems. Reminiscent of Blake and Gibran, they include many works that are almost biblical in their rhythms, phrasing and images.

Notă biografică

Rabindranath Tagore was born in Calcutta, India, in 1861. A poet, novelist, short-story writer, playwright, composer, educator, philosopher, and artist, he became one of the central figures of the Bengali Renaissance. Educated largely at home, Tagore began writing at an early age and eventually transformed Bengali literature through his use of natural speech, psychological realism, and close attention to ordinary life.Tagore wrote poetry, novels, plays, essays, songs, and hundreds of short stories. His best-known works include Gitanjali, The Home and the World, The Gardener, and The Post Office. His short fiction frequently explores village life, social inequality, women's experiences, childhood, family obligations, and the conflicts between tradition and modernity. He also founded an experimental school at Santiniketan that later developed into Visva-Bharati University.In 1913, Tagore received the Nobel Prize in Literature, becoming the first Asian recipient of the award. The Nobel committee recognized the sensitivity and beauty of his verse, but his achievement extended far beyond poetry. He also composed songs that became the national anthems of India and Bangladesh. Tagore died in 1941, leaving behind an immense body of work that continues to influence literature, music, education, and cultural thought around the world.
