About The Book

This selection of Tagore's writings provides only a whiff of his genius for those who cannot read him in the original. This commemorative volume contains selections from short stories, essays, poems and one each of a full-length novel and drama. The notes at the end of the book provide a comprehensive bibliography of the collection. The selection aims to present the myriad writings to attract readers to discover Tagore anew.

Foreword

The usefulness of a collection of representative writings of an author of the calibre of Gurudeva Rabindranath Tagore is well understood and need not be emphasized. Accordingly VISVA-BHARATI has, from time to time, published anthologies of selected writings-prose and poetry of Gurudeva-the latest being Vichitra and Dipika. These anthologies have received immense popular approbation. It has occurred to the Publishing Department of VISVA-BHARATI that the publication of a collection of English translations of some representative writings of Gurudeva will greatly help the non-Bengali reading public to appreciate the delicate beauty and the wide sweep of the thoughts that find expression in his writings. Accordingly, the present volume is published mainly for the mental edification of non-Bengali readers.

In the preparation of this volume VISVA-BHARATI has received co-operation and support from many eminent men of literature and culture. Our special thanks are due to Sri Kshitish Chandra Sen, Dr. Amiga Chakravarty, Sri Hirendranath Datta and Dr. Sushil Ray for the pains they took in selecting the pieces to be included in this volume.

It is hoped that this volume will serve the purpose for which it has been issued.
