Rabindranath Tagore

Peace in an Enchanted World

This book explores Rabindranath Tagoreâ s distinctive argument for peace â in spiritual rather than in political terms. Drawing on seminal texts by Tagore, the book presents the reader with a comprehensive overview of Gurudevâ s seemingly contradictory notions of individual freedom, universal love for humanity, and nationalism.
