Prize in Economics Rabindranath Tagore The Nobel Prize in Literature 1913 Biography Rabindranath Tagore (1861-1941) was the youngest son of Debendranath Tagore, a leader of the Brahmo Samaj, which was a new religious sect in nineteenth-century Bengal and which attempted a revival of the ultimate monistic basis of Hinduism as laid down in the Upanishads . He was educated at home; and although at seventeen he was sent to England for formal schooling, he did not finish his studies there. In his mature years, in addition to his many-sided literary activities, he managed the family estates, a project which brought him into close touch with common humanity and increased his interest in social reforms. He also started an experimental school at Shantiniketan where he tried his Upanishadic ideals of education. From time to time he participated in the Indian nationalist movement, though in his own non-sentimental and visionary way; and Gandhi, the political father of modern India, was his devoted friend. Tagore was knighted by the ruling British Government in 1915, but within a few years he resigned the honour as a protest against British policies in India. Tagore had early success as a writer in his native Bengal. With his translations of some of his poems he became rapidly known in the West. In fact his fame attained a luminous height, taking him across continents on lecture tours and tours of friendship. For the world he became the voice of India's spiritual heritage; and for India, especially for Bengal, he became a great living institution.

Two years later he was awarded the knighthood, but he surrendered it in 1919 as a protest against the Massacre of Amritsar, where British troops killed some 400 Indian demonstrators. Tagore's influence over Gandhi and the founders of modern India was enormous, but his reputation in the West as a mystic has perhaps mislead his Western readers to ignore his role as a reformer and critic of colonialism.

Debendranath Tagore was himself an influential Bengali and member of the Brahmo Samaj. Although very wealthy he had an underlying spirituality, qualities which to a large extent were inherited by his youngest son Rabindranath. As a young boy Rabindranath Tagore was asked to sing by his father. Debendranath was so impressed with the soulfulness of his singing that he credited his son with a valuable gift. Rabindranath wrote his first poem at the age of 6 and as a young boy studied the classical poetry of Kalidasa . He also studied the Upanishads, languages and modern sciences. In 1878 he travelled to England in the hope of becoming a barrister. However in 1880 he left University College London and returned to India because his father had arranged his marriage to Mrinalini Devi. Thus Tagore returned home to get married and look after his family’s estates. This enabled a productive period of writing poetry, plays and short stories. In 1901 Tagore moved to Santiniketan (West Bengal) where he found an ashram, dedicated to returning educational traditions of ancient India. Later this school was to be expanded and given the name of Shriniketan — "Abode of Peace" This project was dear to Tagore’s heart throughout his life.

In the evening of his life he also turned his attention towards art. A project dear to his heart was his school at Santiniketan (Abode of Peace) Tagore spent most of his life there and here he also completed much of his writings. Rabindranath Tagore was also famous in the West, in particular the Irish poet W.B. Yeats was very fond of Tagore's writings and this helped raise his profile. In the beginning Tagore received higher honour in the West than in his own native country. It was an unfortunate experience for Tagore that before his Nobel Peace Prize in 1913 he was unappreciated in his own homeland. A funny story relates to how a Bengali newspaper editor mercilessly criticised the writings of Tagore. However shortly afterwards Tagore was awarded the Nobel Prize the very next week the same newspaper editor offered his heartest congratulations and appreciation

Rabindranath Tagore: Highest Price The Golden Boat My Song back to the Fat Poetry Book Index Highest Price translated by William Radice "Who will buy me, who will buy me, rid me of my cares?" Thus I shout and thus I wander through my nights and days; And with each day that passes My basket presses Upon my head more heavily. People come and go: some laugh; some watch me tearfully. At noon I make my way along the king's great stone-paved road, And soon he comes in his chariot, sword in hand, crown on his head. "I'll buy by force," he says And grabs me, tries To drag me off. I wriggle free With ease; the king climbs into his golden chariot and rides away. In small back lanes I wander past bolted and shuttered doors. A door opens; an old man with a money-bag appears. He examines what I have And Says, "I'll give You gold." He returns again and again, Empties his purse. With far-off thoughts I carry my basket on. At evening over the richly blossoming florest moonbeams fall.
