Two kinds of English prose. Conclusion. Bibliography. Index. The link between Tagore and Sri Aurobindo has been too insufficiently explored. There is no book as yet in English which has attempted to integrate the two makers of the modern Indian tradition. One searches in vain for a critical comparative study of the two writers in any other Indian language. The book traces back the formative influences of the two mighty Bengalees growing up almost together without any interaction between them till the first decade of twentieth century. While Tagore took a direct initiative in meeting the yogi in Pondicherry Sri Aurobindo wrote about his contribution silently listing him as one of the pioneers of the future poetry along with Whitman Carpenter and others. Basically both poets are in love with this oppressed earth wishing it to change one day into a beautiful planet. The divine is certainly an engaging passion for both of them. But they are not quite satisfied with God who stays far away from us hidden in the high far blue. They wish to catch him in the net of their poetry and love and bring him down here on this polluted and plundered globe. Dreamers of a new creation on earth they wish to form a rainbow bridge marrying the soil to the sky. Goutam Ghosal tells the story of that magic pairing lucidly keeping the balance throughout. He seeks for an integral view of the two masters which comes out through his observations on their poetry and fiction drama and criticism letters and casual notes. A new approach to Tagore's music and painting is an added charm of the book. 236 pp. Seller Inventory # 64580
