Aprašymas

Nationalism' by Rabindranath Tagore is a compilation of lectures written in lucid, metaphoric, poetic prose during the 'First World War' and the 'Swadeshi movement' in India. It explicates the idea of moral and spiritual growth for the welfare of people, making it even more relevant in today's environment of violence. These lectures bear testimony of its eternity and cannot be wrapped or concealed under the influence of ancient limitations of historical consideration.

Rabindranath Tagore (1861-1941) was a renowned poet, musician, polymath, Ayurveda-researcher and an artist who recast music, Bengali literature and Indian art in the late 19th and early 20th century. Author of the "profoundly sensitive, revolutionary and beautiful

verse" of Gitanjali, he became the first non-European to win the Nobel Prize in Literature in the year 1913.

Rabindranath Tagore was also referred to as 'the Bard of Bengal'. His compositions "Jana Gana Mana" and "Amar Sonar Bangla" were embraced by two nations as their national anthems respectively.
