Rabindranath Tagore Long Life (18611941) Was Marked By Ceaseless And Torrential Flow Of Creativity Manifested In The Richness And Variety Of All Kinds Of Literary And Artistic Forms.
In His Philosophy Of Life The Best Of The East And That Of The West Are Reconciled Into A Harmonious Whole.
His Inclusive Mind Aspired After The Universal Man Shining In The Glory Of Creation And Joie De Vivre.
With The Passage Of Time, Tagore, Our First Nobel Laureate, Has Only Grown In Stature And Is Now Reckoned As An Increasingly Significant And Rich Personality And A Genius For All Times.
Among Rabindranath S Major Fictional Works, Gora (1910), The Sixth In The Chronological Order, Is Remarkable For Its Superb Handling Of Certain Topical Social Religious Political Controversies While Reflecting At The Same Time Some Of The Authors Major Preoccupations And Convictions Like The Value Of Truth, Freedom And Dignity Of The Individual.
The Novel Is Set Against The Atmosphere Of Political Excitement And Religious Debates That Characterized The First Decades Of The Last Century In Bengal And India.
In The Words Of As It Bandyopadhyaya: Gora Is Not Only An Epoch Making Novel Of Modern Indian Literature, It Is Certainly Comparable With Any Epic Novel Of Europe In Shape And Size, In And In Execution.
Sukumar Sen, The Renowned Scholar, Hailed It As A Mahabharata Of Modern India, While Tagore S Biographer Krishna Kripalani Praised The Novel As The Epic Of India In Transition, And Compared It With Tolstoy S War And Peace.
Tagore S Consistent, Profound And Lifelong Exploration Of The Two Issues Religion And Nationalistic Necessarily Got Intersected During Those Days Of Newly Awakened Cultural Nationalism, Found Reflection In The Novel.
His Own Idealism And Ideals About India, His Thoughts, Activities, His Anguish, His Dreams And Disillusionment, All Work Together Behind Gora.
The Translators Have Attempted To Strike A Fine Balance Between Fidelity And Freedom By Conveying The Spirit Of The Original And Yet Conforming To The Genius Of English Language.
It Will Enable Those Who Do Not Know Bengali Or Do Not Have Enough Proficiency In Bengali To Enjoy A Novel Written By No Less A Mighty Literary Figure Than Rabindranath Tagore.
