作者：(印度)泰戈爾

泰戈爾（Rabindranath Tagore,1861-1941），印度作家，詩人，社會活動家，生於地主家庭。曾留學英國。1921年創辦國際大學。一生創作豐富。1903年起陸續發表長篇小說《小沙子》、《沉船》、《戈拉》，劇本《摩吉多塔拉》、《郵局》、《紅夾竹桃》，詩集《吉檀迦利》、《新月集》、《園丁集》和許多中、短篇小說。獲1913年諾貝爾文學獎。

Rabindranath Tagore (1861?1941), one of India?s greatest and most prolific writers of the twentieth century, was awarded the 1913 Nobel Prize in Literature. William Radice is a poet, scholar, and translator of Bengali, who has written or edited nearly thirty books. He has translated Tagore?s short stories and his novel The Home and the World for Penguin Classics.

The poems of Rabindranath Tagore are among the most haunting and tender in Indian and world literature, expressing a profound and passionate human yearning. His ceaselessly inventive works deal with such subjects as the interplay between God and mortals, the eternal and the transient, and the paradox of an endlessly changing universe that is in tune with unchanging harmonies. Poems such as "Earth" and "In the Eyes of a Peacock" present a picture of natural processes unaffected by human concerns, while others, as in "Recovery?14," convey the poet?s bewilderment about his place in the world. And exuberant works such as "New Rain" and "Grandfather?s Holiday" describe Tagore?s sheer joy at the glories of nature or simply in watching a grandchild play.
