Book Summary
Drawing on a range of visual archives and personal collections, this book casts
Rabindranath Tagore as the "Dancing Poet"--in whom the contours of a pan-Indian
diversity seek to merge, albeit selectively, with that of the world, eschewing
most emphatically the territorial borders of the nation-state while reiterating
civilizational strands. The book outlines the contradictions and possibilities
in such aspirations, central to the new cultural texts that Tagore seeks to
produce in lyric, songs, dance, image, or narrative. These are strategic
juxtapositions that may yet yield new insights into our old debates on
modernity.
Focusing on the first four decades of the twentieth century, the book evokes an
international backdrop
