This unusual collection brings together Rabindranath Tagore's writings on forms of difference based on gender, caste, class, nation, community, religion, language, art, literature, philosophy, social custom and political belief. Via new translations, along with Tagore's own writings, lectures and conversations in English, this illustrated anthology presents his complex, dynamic approach to commonly perceived dualities -such as life/death, nature/culture, male/female, tradition/modernity, East/West, local/universal, urban/rural etc. - to highlight his humanistic vision and its significance for us today. The accompanying Audio Visual material, Tagore & His World, provides a broader context for Tagore's evolution as a thinker and artist, offering glimpses of his life, travels, educational vision and creative experiments in the visual and performing arts. Through a range of contemporary adaptations from diverse sources and in different languages, it marks how Tagore's spirit lives on today, his legacy undiminished, for the world at large.
