These thoughts are not bound by any era or the confines of any span of time or geography, they are universal and for all time. He was as relevant in his time as is today and will remain so tomorrow. Tagore is truly A Man of All Ages, and has indeed a Timeless mind! It is clear that there is a resurgence of interest in Tagore all over the world. After nearly five decades of quietude following the death of the poet there seems to be a new awareness of Rabindranath Tagore in the West. There is a new prosperity to reappraise his works from an appropriate perspective in time, and a new understanding of the complete man and his oeuvre. This is evident from the fact that the volume has received contributions from eighteen different countries, speaking different languages. The diverse group of contributors and choice of subjects for this collection is hardly surprising given Tagore’s manifold creative output and interests. There are signs for change and this publication bears the testimony of that resurgence.
