Rabindranath Tagore

A myriad-minded man, Rabindranath Tagore (7 May 1861 – 7 August 1941), was a poet, novelist, musician, painter and playwright who reshaped Bengali literature and music. At the same time he was a social reformer, educator, the ultimate humanist, environmentalist, champion of women’s rights, internationalist and an idealist philosopher considered among the great living men of his age whose voice was heard and listened to all over the world. Tagore’s ideals and guiding principles remain equally relevant in today’s world.
