Rewriting the Gita: Tagore’s Mystical Poetics in Gitanjali: Interpreting Transcendence Through Song and Scripture (Bengali Literary Traditions) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

This book emerged from a decades-long conversation between two passions: my love for Rabindranath Tagore’s luminous prose and my fascination with the human psyche’s hidden contours. While Tagore’s works are often celebrated for their spiritual and aesthetic brilliance, this project seeks to unearth a quieter, more intimate dimension—the subterranean currents of longing, conflict, and transformation that pulse beneath his stories. By weaving psychoanalytic theory into literary analysis, I aim to illuminate how Tagore’s characters—the grieving widow, the restless artist, the disillusioned patriot—mirror our own unspoken struggles.
This is not a definitive study but an invitation. It is written for fellow seekers who, like me, find in literature not just beauty but a mirror for the soul’s unquiet depths. Whether you approach Tagore as a scholar, a devotee, or a curious reader, I hope these pages offer fresh pathways into his world—and perhaps, into your own.
