USED BOOK TOWARDS UNIVERSAL MAN RABINDRANATH TAGORE 1961 HARDCOVER

Rabindranath Tagore’s contributions to religious and educational thought, politics and social reform, moral regeneration, and economic philosophy are as significant as his contribution to world literature. His conception of the aim of education as the development of an integrated personality, his emphasis on the role of the individual in social and political reform, his synoptic view of religion, and his internationalism—all reflect the fundamental tenet of his philosophy: the unity of life.

Throughout his writings, one finds a deep awareness of the great diversity of life and thought, and of the need to preserve all elements of value within a harmonious synthesis. The eighteen essays in this volume represent a collection of his extra-literary writings. They contain a timeless message for humanity—one that remains valid and relevant.
