When Tagore won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1913 for his own English translation of Gitanjali (Song Offerings), he became the first non-European to do so, achieving immediate fame.Translations in other languages of this and other works followed. Reams were written on his writings, and his personality. As aworld citizen, Tagore aimed at bringing the East and the West together for an inclusive humanism. His was assumed to be the Voice of India-indeed of Asia and the colonised world. The Nobel Prize gave him the authority to speak, and the intellectual elite of many countries listened. The editors of Rabindranath Tagore: One Hundred Years of Global Reception had asked Tagore experts worldwide to narrate how the Bengali author was received from 1913 until our time. Their thirty-five essays arranged by region or language group inform us about translations, the impact of Tagore s visits, and his subsequent standing in the world of letters. Tagore s reception while often enthusiastic was not always adulatory, occasionally undergoing dramatic metamorphoses, and diverse political and social milieus and cultural movements responded to him differently. This nuanced global reception is for the first time dealt with comprehensively and systematically in this volume presented as a work of reference. These essays remind us that Tagore s works keep being reprinted or retranslated for he continues to be relevant to modern readers.…

Hardcover. Condizione: New. 1st Edition. As a global figure, Tagore transcends the boundaries of language and reaches out to people distant both in time and space. His art took inspiration from contemporary Western trends and became a powerful means to connect with people beyond Bengal. Word, image, song, and text were his tools of communication, as also his extraordinary presence in a sartorial garb of his own design. A littérateur in many genres, the impact of his work was determined both by the material he presented, and by its simultaneously local and global contexts. Now, when his international reputation has spanned over more than a hundred years, it is important to revisit the sites of Tagore's eminence, and ask to what extent he was a 'living text' in the century that witnessed him as a global intellectual. Accordingly, this volume investigates how Tagore's writings and art are linked to the metalinguistic domains of the psychological, medical and mythical; how he was received in various cultures outside India; how his art was determined by individual circumstances and global aspirations; and how he acted as an inspiration to his contemporaries and subsequent generations including modern Indian writers and artists. …

This Bundelkhandi author composed hundreds of short, gemlike quatrains, called Kabittas, which swept through the lively Brajbhasha literary scene during the last decades before it began to take on western ideas. At the beginning of the nineteenth century, Brajbhasha courtly literature was flourishing across central and northern India, in centres both large and small. Circulated by word of mouth and by manuscript, this poetry escaped the limitations of court patronage and reached learned people in towns and villages over the vast area of the Gangetic valley. Thakur was favourite of nineteenth-century anthologists and in the twentieth century, he came to be known as one of the few authors in the highly stylized world of Riti-poetry who wrote with an identifiably personal voice. Today, he can be considered a powerful exponent of an early modern Indian sensitivity through his emphasis on individual sentiment and through his search for a simple style that bends towards realism. In his kabittas, furthermore, one finds innovations in theme, style and tone that are usually thought to emerge only in later Hindi poetry under the influence of colonial modernity. The critically edited Hindi text contains collated readings from almost a hundred handwritten, lithographed or printed anthologies. The annotation addresses the grammatical and literary intricacies of the Bundeli regional version of Brajbhasha and can be read by students and scholars of Old Hindi alike. Reading Thakur opens new paths into the hardly accessible world of Brajbhasha poetry. This volume also makes Thakur's quatrains accessible to readers who are unfamiliar with Old Hindi. It includes a detailed introduction, an edition of more than three hundred quatrains, and a translation of a large selection of verses to arrive at an authoritative work on Thakur. (jacket).…

Hardcover. Condizione: New. Literary Cultures in Early Modern North India: Current Research grows out of over a 40-year tradition of the triennial International Conferences on Early Modern Literatures in North India (ICEMLNI), initiated to share 'Bhakti in current research.' This volume brings together a selection of contributions from some of the leading scholars as well as emerging researchers in the field originally presented at the 13th ICEMLNI (University of Warsaw, 18-22 July 2018). Considering innovative methodologies and tools, the volume presents the current state of research on early modern sources and offers new inputs into our understanding of this period in the cultural history of India. This collection of essays is in the tradition of 'Bhakti in current research' volumes produced from 1980 onward but reflecting our current understanding of early modern textualities. The book operates on the premises that the centuries preceding the colonial conquest of India, which in scholarship influenced by orientalist concepts, has often been referred to as medieval. However these languages already participated in modernity through increased circulation of ideas, new forms of knowledge, new concepts of the individual, of the community, and of religion. The essays cover multiple languages (Indian vernaculars, Sanskrit, Apabhramsha, Persian), different media (texts, performances, paintings, music) and traditions (Hindu, Jain, Muslim, Sant, Sikh), analyzing them as individual phenomena that function in a wider network of connections at textual, intertextual, and knowledge-system levels.…
