Rabindranath Tagore-Creative Thinking
Rabindranath Tagore
His prose mainly focuses on society, politics and education, while his poems mainly describe nature and life besides religious content. In Tagore's poems, life itself and its diversity are the reasons for joy. At the same time, his love (including patriotism) is also one of the contents of his poems. Tagore's poems are used in the national anthems of India and Bangladesh. Owen and Ye Zhi were deeply moved by his poems. With Ye Zhi's encouragement, Tagore personally translated his Collection of Tanks and Chestnuts (meaning "Poetry") into English, and won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 19 13. But then he broke away from the movement. In order to protest against the 19 19 Zalenwala Garden tragedy, he refused the knighthood conferred by the British king, and he was the first person to refuse the honor conferred by the British king. He opposed the education system established by Britain in India, and opposed this "artificial", completely obedient, dead-endorsed and out of touch with natural schools. To this end, he established a school designed according to his vision in his hometown, which is the predecessor of Viswabarati University. In his poems, Tagore also expressed his despair and sorrow for the war, but his hope for peace had no political factors. He hopes that all people can live in a perfect and peaceful world. Tagore traveled many times, which made him understand many different cultures and the differences between them. His description of eastern and western cultures is by far the most delicate of its kind.
Tagore was born in an era of rapid change and was influenced by traditional Indian philosophy and western philosophy. But the most basic and core part of his world outlook is the traditional pantheism in India, that is, "the unity of Brahma and Me". In Colorful Collection, he first put forward the concept of "God of Life". His devotion to God is combined with his love for life, country and people. But it also casts a strong mysticism on his poems. In addition, he advocated the spiritual civilization of the East, but did not obliterate the material civilization of the West. All these make his thoughts full of contradictions, which are manifested in his creation. Throughout Tagore's life thought and creative development, it can be roughly divided into three stages: ① From childhood to around 19 10, he actively participated in anti-British political activities, praised national heroes, preached patriotism and advocated great national unity in India. ② He lived in seclusion to 19 19 and actively participated in the national movement again. His patriotic enthusiasm faded slightly, and his poems with strong political content were replaced by poems with mysterious meanings. These poems were also influenced by western symbolism and aestheticism and advocated love and harmony. ③ From the Amritsar tragedy in 19 19 until his death, he began to care about politics and actively participated in the national liberation struggle. His works are full of political passion, broad vision and great concern for the world and mankind. It can be said that Tagore's life's creation has both "Bodhisattva's compassion" and "King Kong's glare". Influenced by Indian classical literature, western poetry and Bangladeshi folk lyrics, most of his poems are rhymed and unabridged free poems and prose poems. Influenced by western novels, his novels are innovative, especially the combination of poetry and painting to form a unique style.
