This essay, published in ‘Lensight’ (Jan-Mar, 2015 issue), was presented at a JNU conference titled ‘Rethinking Tagore’ in November, 2011.The essay that follows is a modified version of that presentation. TAGORE, CINEMA AND THE POETRY OF MOVEMENT Indranil Chakravarty Introduction It must have been almost impossible to be a writer in the twentieth century in any part of the world without some kind of response to the new and emerging narrative form called cinema or ‘motion pictures’. As cinema’s birth coincided with the onset of the 20th century, its own development and growth as an art form as well as an industry went almost hand-in-hand with the vicissitudes of social, political and cultural developments in the past century. The popular and frivolous base of cinema led most ‘high brow’ writers to turn their back towards it and many of them were oblivious of the extraordinary narrative experimentations that were being explored in this new form of expression. Whether cinema could at all be considered a valid ‘art form’ was debated till the 1960s though through the 1920s and 1930s, there was a sporadic phenomenon – mainly in Europe and USA - of painters, theatre directors and writers collaborating on film projects.

  • Buddhist Humanism of Rabindra Nath Tagore
    [VOLUME 5 I ISSUE 3 I JULY – SEPT 2018] e ISSN 2348 –1269, Print ISSN 2349-5138 http://ijrar.com/ Cosmos Impact Factor 4.236 BUDDHIST HUMANISM OF RABINDRA NATH TAGORE Bhumida Sharma Dev Samaj College for Women, Ferozepur City. Received: May 15, 2018 Accepted: June 24, 2018 Rabindra Nath Tagore, a poet, novelist, playwright, essayist, singer, musician, religious thinker and the founder of an experiential school Shantiniketan, was the first non-European to be awarded the Nobel Prize for literature. Perhaps the most important figure in Bengali literature, he is a name famous outside of India as well. A self-confessed disciple of Gautam Buddha, Tagore as a believer in the idea of humanity and a worshipper of the religion of man, had strong admirations for Buddha and his doctrines. In his collection of essays Sadhana, the Realization of Life, Tagore says how much he is influenced by Upanisada as well as the great teacher Buddha; "To me the verses of the Upanisads and the teaching of Buddha have ever been things of the spirit, and therefore endowed with boundless vital growth; and I have used them, both in my own life and in my preaching, as being instinct with individual meaning for me, as for others and awaiting for their confirmation, my own special testimony, which must have its value because of its individuality'' .1 Born on May 7, 1861, Tagore went through all the important stages of Indian culture. Beginning from the Vedic age, he reflected on the Buddhist period, the age of the great epics the Rámayana and the Mahábharata, and the age of the mystic saints of the Middle Ages.

  • New Humanism and Partisan Universalism in Rabindranath Tagore Select Plays
    IASET: Journal of Linguistics and Literature (IASET: JLL) ISSN(P): Applied; ISSN(E): Applied Vol. 1, Issue 2, Jul - Dec 2016, 1-8 © IASET NEW HUMANISM AND PARTISAN UNIVERSALISM IN RABINDRANATH TAGORE SELECT PLAYS G. SANKAR, T. RAJESHKANNAN, K. LAVANYA & A. AKILA Assistant Professor, Department of English, Vel Tech Dr. Rangarajan & Dr. Sagunthala Engineering College, Avadi, Chennai, Tamilnadu, India ABSTRACT History reveals that institutions or artifacts produced by human beings can lead to the exploitation or the loss of freedom of other human beings. Thus the celebration of the good life of an Athenian citizen in Plato’s time can hide the wretchedness of vast numbers of slaves whose labor made it possible for the few free citizens to enjoy that good life. Our criteria then must apply to all, or at least the vast majority of the vast of the human group concerned, if they are to lay claim to universality. Amiya Kumar Bagchi, Perilous Passage 1 KEYWORDS: New Humanism and Partisan Universalism in Rabindranath Tagore Select Plays INTRODUCTION The story of Indo-Anglican literature is the story of yesterday, of a little more than a century, and today. One of the natural results of the British rule in India is the rise and development of literature. The term “Indo-Anglican” was first used in 1883 when a book published in Calcutta that bore the title Indo-Anglian Literature .

  • SPIRITUALISM in TAGORE's NATIR PUJA and MUKTADHARA Vibhavari S Kulkarni (Assistant Professor, Dept of English, Karnatak Arts College, Dharwad, Karnataka.)
    VEDA’S JOURNAL OF ENGLISH LANGUAGE AND LITERATURE (JOELL) Vol.7 Issue 1 An International Peer Reviewed (Refereed) Journal 2020 Impact Factor (SJIF) 4.092 http://www.joell.in RESEARCH ARTICLE SPIRITUALISM IN TAGORE'S NATIR PUJA AND MUKTADHARA Vibhavari S Kulkarni (Assistant Professor, Dept of English, Karnatak Arts College, Dharwad, Karnataka.) DOI: 10.333329/joell.7.1.x ABSTRACT Rabindranath Tagore is famous for his treatment of spiritualism and mystic experiences in his literary works.This is evident in his Geetanjali a collection of poems that got for him the prestigious Nobel Prize.Many of his short stories and poems address the spiritual experience of human life. It appears that Tagore found drama as a more effective literay form to explore the theme of spiritualism. His illustrious plays, Natir Puja and Muktadhara, like his several other plays, stand witness to this fact. Natir Puja explores the spiritual experience of a palace dancer, who achieves spiritual freedom and attains fulfillment of life through her dance. Through her, Tagore illustrates how attainment of spiritual experience can transform an ordinary and ignoble person into a superior personality. Simialarly, in Muktadhara, the central character of Abhijit attains spiritual experience and fulfillment of life through his death, thus rendering spiritual glory to his life as well as death. The paper intends to study these two plays from this perspective. Keywords: Spiritualism, Mystic experience, Fulfillment, Spiritual glory.

  • Chapter -1 Tagore: Life & Works
    CHAPTER -1 TAGORE: LIFE & WORKS LIFE Rabindranath Tagore, fourteenth child of Debendranath Tagore and Sarada Devi, was bom on the 7* of May 1861 at Jorasanko in Calcutta. According to the Bengali calendar the date was the 25'*' of Vaishaka, 1268. The Tagore family was living very simply at the time of Rabindranath's birth. Rabindranath did not even have the care and attention of his mother, Sarada Devi, head of the large household. Rabindranath's care became the responsibility of the family servants. His movements were restricted by them to make their job easier. Very often Rabindranath would spend his hours shut alone in a room seated quietly by a window. The world outside grew more and more mysterious and strange to the child. Rabindranath was even deprived of his share of milk as the servant mismanaged to take a major share of it. But this servant indirectly contributed to Rabrindranath's development & growth as a literary artist, because when he read out parts of Ramayana and Mahabharata to the other servants, Rabindranath listened with keen interest. Cut off as he was from the grown-up world and the outside world, the world of his imagination become real to him. Insularity from the external world made Rabindranath's mind more sensitive to the workings of a child's mind. Listening to his elder brothers talk of school, made Rabindranath's heart yearn to go to school, but once there he realized that the closed room was nothing like the colourfiil world of imagination; going to school, he felt, was no better than being punished in a heartless prison.
