Meer over het boek

Renowned for reshaping Bengali literature and music, Tagore was a multifaceted artist who made significant contributions to Indian art through Contextual Modernism. His acclaimed work, Gitanjali, showcases his deeply sensitive and beautiful verse, earning him the distinction of being the first non-European Nobel laureate in Literature in 1913. While his poetic songs are celebrated for their spiritual essence, his prose and poetry have remained relatively obscure outside Bengal, earning him the title "the Bard of Bengal."
