Rabindranath Tagore (1861 - 1941)

  

 

A TRIBUTE TO  RABINDRANATH  ON THE SESQUICENTENNIAL BIRTH ANNIVERSARY 

The first Indian Noble Laureate for Literature (1913). Tagore was labeled the "King of Poets" for his book 'Gitanjali'.

This year, 2010, we celebrate the 150th birthday of the Poet, Philosopher, Musician, Writer and Educator. He played a large role in the artistic and cultural renaissance of India; fusing the spirituality of the East with the scientific progress of the West.

 
     

Kuthibari - Shelaidaha

In 1890, Tagore along with his family moved to Shelaidaha, now in Bangladesh. He was known as 'Zamindar Babu' and travelled dozens of miles across the 'Padma' river on his barge. The villagers revered him and celebrated his presence among them with feasts in his honour. It was during this era that he mirrored the Bengali life style in a new form of writing   known as the short story. This was a novel way of expressing the Bengali scenario during Tagore's generation.
