Rabindranath Tagore’s View of Education in His Poems The Child Angel, When and Why, and Benediction. Yogyakarta: English Language Education Study program, Faculty of Teachers Training and Education, Sanata Dharma University. This study is conducted to analyze Tagore’s view of education from his three poems. They are The Child Angel, When and Why, and Benediction. These poems are the part of Tagore’s The Crescent Moon which was written in 1913. In these poems, the poet reveals some of his ideas on education. There are two main questions which are going to be discussed in this study, namely (1) What is the explication of Tagore’s poems, entitled The Child Angel, When and Why and Benediction? and (2) What Tagore’s views of education are as reflected in his three poems, The Child Angel, When and Why and Benediction? The study uses library research to gather the data. The primary source was taken from the poems. Some books, articles, the poet’s biography, reviews on Indian education in 1913, and some sources from the internet were selected as the secondary sources. This study uses socio-historical approach and biographical approach. The first approach was employed to answer the first question. This approach was used to find the explication of Tagore’s three poems. The second approach was employed to answer the second question. This approach was used to find Tagore’s view of education. Through the analysis, the study discovers the explication of the poems. As any other poems in The Crescent Moon, these three poems present Tagore’s relation to child. The explication of The Child Angel shows Tagore’s love to the youth. In When and Why, Tagore presents his close relation to nature and the child. Then, Benediction shows Tagore’s spirituality that needs God’s help. In addition, the study found some of Tagore’s view of education. In The Child Angel, education is viewed as giving parents-children attention to the students. When and Why presents education that must be built based in a good atmosphere and long life learning. Benediction views education that needs spirituality. In this poem, the presence of God’s help must not be forgotten. The last, the application of the poems in education. The study used the poems to teach reading. It focuses on the language program of the third grade of senior high school. vii PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI ABSTRAK Sudartomo, Martinus. 2009. Rabindranath Tagore’s View of Education in His Poems The Child Angel, When and Why, and Benediction. Yogyakarta: Program Study Pendidikan Bahasa Inggris, Fakultas Keguruan dan Ilmu Pendidikan, Universitas Sanata Dharma.

Ketiganya merupakan bagian dari The Crescent Moon yang ditulis pada tahun 1913. Melalui ketiga puisi tersebut, penyair mengungkapkan ide-idenya tentang pendidikan. Ada dua permasalahan mendasar yang akan dibahas dalam studi ini, yaitu (1) Apa explikasi dari puisi-puisi Tagore yang berjudul The Child Angel, When and Why dan Benediction? dan (2) Apa pandangan Tagore tentang pendidikan dalam ketiga puisinya, The Child Angel, When and Why, dan Benediction? Studi ini menggunakan studi pustaka untuk menggali data. Sumber utama dari studi ini adalah puisi-puisi tersebut. Beberapa buku, artikel, biografi penyair, tinjauan tentang pendidikan di India tahun 1913, dan beberapa sumber dari internet digunakan sebagai sumber lain. Studi ini menggunakan pendekatan formalistik dan pendekatan biografi. Pendekatan pertama digunakan untuk menjawab pertanyaan pertama.

Dalam When and Why, Tagore menunjukkan kedekatannya dengan alam dan anak. Sebagai tambahan, studi ini menemukan pandangan Tagore tentang pendidikan. Dalam The Child Angel, pendidikan berarti memberikan perhatian orangtua-anak kepada para murid.

  • Rabindranath Tagore: a Social Thinker and an Activist a Review of Literature and a Bibliography Kumkum Chattopadhyay, Retd
    2018 Heritage Vol.-V Rabindranath Tagore: a Social Thinker and an Activist A Review of Literature and a Bibliography Kumkum Chattopadhyay, Retd. Associate Professor, Dept. of Political Science, Bethune College, Kolkata-6 Abstract: Rabindranath Tagore, although basically a poet, had a multifaceted personality. Among his various activities his sincerity as a social thinker and activist attract our attention. But this area is till now comparatively unexplored. Many scholars in this area have tried to study Tagore as a social thinker. But so far the findings are scattered and on the whole there is no comprehensive analysis in the strict sense of the term. Hence it is necessary to collect the different findings and to integrate and arrange them within a theoretical framework. This article is an attempt to make a review of literature of the existing books and to prepare a short but sharp bibliography to introduce the area. Key words: Rabindranath Tagore, society, social, political, history, education, Santiniketan, Visva-Bharati Rabindranath Tagore (1861 – 1941) was a prolific writer, a successful music composer, a painter, an actor, a drama director and what not. Besides these talents, he was also a social activist and contributed a lot to Indian social and political thought, although this area has not been very much explored till now. Tagore was emphatic upon society building. So he tried to develop all the component elements which were essential for developing the Indian society. He studied the history of India to follow the trend of its evolution. Next he prepared his programme of action – rural reconstruction and spread of education.

    Everant.in/index.php/sshj Survey Report Social Science and Humanities Journal Tagore’s Song Offerings: A Study on Beauty and Eternity Dr. Tinni Dutta Lecturer, Department of Psychology , Asutosh College Kolkata , India.

This strain of thinking is found also in an exquisite poem written in old age.

  • PAPER VI UNIT I Non-Fictional Prose—General
    PAPER VI UNIT I Non-fictional Prose—General Introduction, Joseph Addison’s The Spectator Papers: The Uses of the Spectator, The Spectator’s Account of Himself, Of the Spectator 1.1. Introduction: Eighteenth Century English Prose The eighteenth century was a great period for English prose, though not for English poetry. Matthew Arnold called it an "age of prose and reason," implying thereby that no good poetry was written in this century, and that, prose dominated the literary realm. Much of the poetry of the age is prosaic, if not altogether prose-rhymed prose. Verse was used by many poets of the age for purposes which could be realized, or realized better, through prose. Our view is that the eighteenth century was not altogether barren of real poetry. Even then, it is better known for the galaxy of brilliant prose writers that it threw up. In this century there was a remarkable proliferation of practical interests which could best be expressed in a new kind of prose-pliant and of a work a day kind capable of rising to every occasion. This prose was simple and modern, having nothing of the baroque or Ciceronian colour of the prose of the seventeenth-century writers like Milton and Sir Thomas Browne. Practicality and reason ruled supreme in prose and determined its style. It is really strange that in this period the language of prose was becoming simpler and more easily comprehensible, but, on the other hand, the language of poetry was being conventionalized into that artificial "poetic diction" which at the end of the century was so severely condemned by Wordsworth as "gaudy and inane phraseology." 1.2.

D. Scholar on the Films of Rituparno Ghosh. His area of interest includes Gender and Queer Studies, Nationalism, Postcolonialism, Postmodernism and Film Studies. He has already published some articles in prestigious national and international journals. Abstract The paper would focus on the cultural nationalism that the Indians gave birth to in response to the British colonialism and Ghosh’s critique of such a parochial nationalism. The paper seeks to expose the irony of India’s cultural nationalism which is based on the phallogocentric principle informed by the Western Enlightenment logic. It will be shown how the idea of a modern India was in fact guided by the heteronormative logic of the British masters. India’s postcolonial politics was necessarily patriarchal and hence its nationalist agenda was deeply gendered. Exposing the marginalised status of the gendered and sexual subalterns in India’s grand narrative of nationalism, Ghosh questions the compatible comradeship of the “imagined communities”. Keywords Hinduism, postcolonial, nationalism, hypermasculinity, heteronormative postscriptum.co.in Online – Open Access – Peer Reviewed – DOAJ Indexed ISSN 24567507 5.i January 20 postScriptum: An Interdisciplinary Journal of Literary Studies 26 India‟s cultural nationalism was a response to British colonialism.
