A creative artist of the highest order Rabindranath shows rare insight in assessing the historical, literary as well as the moral and ethical significance of these epics. Like his innumerable predecessors in Bengali and other Indian languages Rabindranath also drew inspiration from them and recreated some of the characters and situations interpreting them in his own way.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003e My attempt in these two articles has been threefold: to examine Tagore’s opinions and ideas about the origins of Valmiki Ramayana and Vyasa Mahabharata; to analyse the literary assessment made by Rabindranath and thirdly to examine the nature of Rabindranath’s adoption from the epics in respect of his own creation.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003e Rabindranath’s works are mostly in Bengali and hence the quotations taken from his works had to be translated into English.
