Rabindranath Tagore and Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi: Sitting side by side
Rabindranath Tagore's very own, Gitanjali, and Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi's effortless but truly ingenious planning in the leading towards the independence of India made both of them marked philanthropists of the great Peninsula.
Geetanjali (or, Gitanjali) was first published in Bengali, on the 14th of August, 1910
Gitanjali
(By Rabindranath Tagore)
(By Rabindranath Tagore)
‘Gitanjali’
means 'the offering of melody or poetry.' It is usually melody which is introduced through series of symbolic verses: these vary from verse
to verse and may reside fully on themes that are attached to nature, human
behaviour, and the various phases undergone by man in his lifetime.
Gitanjali's poetic epic with its splendid lyrics at
the summit of the themes taken up by Rabindranath Tagore expanded Hindustani
literature to its very utmost limits with many insightful briefings that were
notably about: the beauty and the fragility of nature, human beings'
sensitivity to causes and actions, and the beauty and marvels of life. Literary
written crafts by Rabindranath Tagore were namely: The Home and The World (published
in 1916), Shesher Kabita (or, Farewell Song—published in 1929), Gitanjali (or, Song
Offerings—published in 1910), Chokher Bali (published on the 5th of
April, 1903), The Religion of Man
(1931), My Reminiscences (1912), The Cycle of Spring (1917), Fruit Gathering
(1916), The Hungry Stones and other stories (1916), The Crescent Moon (1903), and Sadhana: The Realization of life (1915).
