Tagore was, of course, right in stressing the uniqueness of Iswar Chandra's personality and in contrasting it with the familiar docility of the Bengali character. Didn't he lament elsewhere, Oh mother Bengal, you have let your seven crore children remain as \"Bengalis\" and not taught them to grow up as \"men\"! Obviously, at this stage, in Tagore's estimate manliness was conspicuous by its absence in the average Bengali character. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e What Tagore, however, did not note then but would fully recognise later, was that a highly promising cultural revolution had already begun in Bengal the starting point of which went beyond Iswar Chandra's birth in 1820.2 Not only missionaries, traders and free booters, but also seeds of the European renaissance had begun to reach Bengal creating the possibility of a fecund interface. The founding of the Asiatick Society by Sir William Jones (1746-94), an outstanding representative of the European Aufklarung (Enlightenment), was a major landmark. So too was the founding of the vernacular printing press in Bengal by Charles Wilkins (1750-1836).\" \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cb\u003e\u003cfont size=\"5\" color=\"red\"\u003e**Contents and Sample Pages**\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.exoticindia.com\/images\/products\/original\/books-2019\/uav884b.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003ccenter\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.exoticindia.com\/images\/products\/original\/books-2019\/uav884c.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003ccenter\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.exoticindia.com\/images\/products\/original\/books-2019\/uav884d.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003ccenter\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.exoticindia.com\/images\/products\/original\/books-2019\/uav884e.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003ccenter\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.exoticindia.com\/images\/products\/original\/books-2019\/uav884f.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003ccenter\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.exoticindia.com\/images\/products\/original\/books-2019\/uav884g.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003ccenter\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.exoticindia.com\/images\/products\/original\/books-2019\/uav884h.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003ccenter\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.exoticindia.com\/images\/products\/original\/books-2019\/uav884i.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003ccenter\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.exoticindia.com\/images\/products\/original\/books-2019\/uav884j.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003ccenter\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.exoticindia.com\/images\/products\/original\/books-2019\/uav884k.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003ccenter\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.exoticindia.com\/images\/products\/original\/books-2019\/uav884l.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003ccenter\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.exoticindia.com\/images\/products\/original\/books-2019\/uav884m.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003ccenter\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.exoticindia.com\/images\/products\/original\/books-2019\/uav884n.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Occultnthings","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44648842658093,"sku":"UAV884","price":24.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2094\/2117\/products\/uav884.jpg?v=1677950435","url":"https:\/\/occultnthings.com\/it\/products\/isvar-chandra-vidyasagar-story-of-his-life-and-work-old-and-rare-book-uav884","provider":"Occult-N-Things","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
