Riassunto

This volume is part of 'The Oxford Tagore Translations' series, a prestigious project undertaken by Oxford University Press in collaboration with Visva-Bharati to publish English translations of a wide range of Tagore's writings including his poetry, non-fiction prose, and fiction.
The 150 poems in this volume, including many new translations, cover the entire span of Tagore's life and illustrate his work in many significant genres and forms. Within the covers of a single volume, they offer a more representative range than ever before in English of Tagore's output in the field of poetry, which was a primary marker of his identity. The volume also includes a detailed introduction and extensive notes.
