Gora (1910) is Tagore's fifth novel and is considered his masterpiece. Canvassing the social, cultural, religious and political life of nineteenth century urban middleclass Bengali, it is a landmark in the history of the Bengali novel. The novel is believed to be an expression of Tagore's own transition from Hindu revivalism to universal brotherhood, from nationalism to internationalism, from the acceptance of rigid Brahmanism and Hinduism to the religion of man. Gora was translated into English by W.W. Pearson in 1924.

Paperback. Condizione: Good. Gora (1910) is Rabindranath Tagore's fifth novel and is widely regarded as his masterpiece. Exploring the social, cultural, religious, and political life of nineteenth-century urban middle-class Bengal, it stands as a landmark in the history of the Bengali novel. The story reflects Tagore's own transition from Hindu revivalism to universal brotherhood, nationalism to internationalism, and rigid Brahmanism to a more humanistic spirituality. The novel was translated into English by W.W. Pearson in 1924. More than just a novel, Gora is an epic portrayal of India in a period of profound change, capturing the intellectual awakening and social upheaval experienced by the new intelligentsia. No other work offers such a masterful analysis of India's complex social fabric, with its deep contradictions, or the character of Indian nationalism--rooted in resurgent Hinduism yet reaching toward universal humanism. Despite the extensive philosophical debates inherent to its themes, Tagore skillfully maintains a compelling narrative that keeps readers engaged until the very end. Codice articolo CIN817167755XG
