Modernism and Tagore /
Ayyub, Abu Sayeed
Modernism and Tagore / Ayyub, Abu Sayeed & Ray, Amitava (Tr.) - New Delhi : Sahitya Akademi, 2017. - 222 p. ; 21 cm.
The Book Is A Major Critical Attempt That Tries To Evaluate Tagore�S Literary Genius In The Background Of Modernism Which According To The Author Chiefly Consists In A Single-Minded Preoccupation With The Body Of Poetry With The Consequent Belief In The Self-Sufficiency Of Language And In An Oppressive And Overwhelming Consciousness Of Evil In The World. The Author Tries, Following The Great Poet�S Own View Of Criticism, To Understand The Way In Which The World Expresses Itself In The Body Of Tagore�S Poetic Creation. He Examines How The Awareness Of Evil Grows In Tagore�S Work Until It Becomes Pervasive In His Final Phase. The Critic Shows How The Poet Moves From Romantic Effusion And Melancholy To The Self-Processed Tranquillity Of Divine Love And From There Towards Western Humanism On The One Hand And To A Realisation Of �The Gracious Aspect Of The Terrible� On The Other.
