About this ebook
*****
"La carezza dell'aura meridiana mi persuase al sonno. Dalla pergola fiorita di Mahlati, silenziosi baci stillavano sul mio corpo. Sui capelli, sul seno, sui piedi, ogni fiore sceglieva un letto su cui morire. Io dormivo. Ed ecco, nel profondo del sonno, sentii come se un intenso avido sguardo, quasi con sottili dita di fiamma, toccasse le mie membra assopite. Balzai a mezzo sul mio giaciglio, e vidi Arjuna che mi stava davanti. La luna volgeva ad occidente, insinuando tra le frondi i suoi raggi per spiare questo prodigio di arte divina incarnato in una fragile forma umana.(…) Udii la sua voce: "Adorata, adorata mia!" E tutte quante le mie vite obliate si fusero in una, e risposero alla chiamata. "Prendimi" esclamai, "prendimi tutta!" E protesi a lui le braccia. La luna si nascose fra gli alberi. Una cortina di ombre coprì ogni cosa. Il cielo e la terra, il tempo e lo spazio, il piacere e lo spasimo, la morte e la vita, annegarono insieme in un'estasi ineffabile, che trascende ogni forza umana."
Rabindranath Tagore
Rabindranath Tagore (1861-1941) was an Indian poet, composer, philosopher, and painter from Bengal. Born to a prominent Brahmo Samaj family, Tagore was raised mostly by servants following his mother’s untimely death. His father, a leading philosopher and reformer, hosted countless artists and intellectuals at the family mansion in Calcutta, introducing his children to poets, philosophers, and musicians from a young age. Tagore avoided conventional education, instead reading voraciously and studying astronomy, science, Sanskrit, and classical Indian poetry. As a teenager, he began publishing poems and short stories in Bengali and Maithili. Following his father’s wish for him to become a barrister, Tagore read law for a brief period at University College London, where he soon turned to studying the works of Shakespeare and Thomas Browne. In 1883, Tagore returned to India to marry and manage his ancestral estates. During this time, Tagore published his Manasi (1890) poems and met the folk poet Gagan Harkara, with whom he would work to compose popular songs. In 1901, having written countless poems, plays, and short stories, Tagore founded an ashram, but his work as a spiritual leader was tragically disrupted by the deaths of his wife and two of their children, followed by his father’s death in 1905. In 1913, Tagore was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature, making him the first lyricist and non-European to be awarded the distinction. Over the next several decades, Tagore wrote his influential novel The Home and the World (1916), toured dozens of countries, and advocated on behalf of Dalits and other oppressed peoples.
