En savoir plus sur le livre

Exploring themes of love, devotion, and the divine, this collection of poems draws inspiration from medieval Indian lyrical traditions. Initially published in 1910, it gained international acclaim after Tagore shared his English translation in England, where it was championed by notable figures such as William Rothenstein and W. B. Yeats. The collection received widespread praise from prominent literary figures and ultimately led to Tagore becoming the first Eastern writer to win the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1913. Gitanjali remains a treasured classic globally.
