And his translators are legion. Yet so much remains to be translated. Education as Freedom -Tagore s Paradigm brings together in translation a number of Rabindranath s major essays, speeches and letters spread over five decades - a period when he came into his own not only as a world poet but also as a notable exponent of an alternative paradigm to colonial education in British India - an exponent who had his own syncretic vision and spoke with formidable original authority to intervene in the contemporary Euro-centric colonial discourse in education. Of course this unique Tagorean vision is epitomised in Visva-Bharati University and the Visva-Bharati saga is an integral part of the history of emergence of modern India.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Niyogi Books","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45091261874327,"sku":"9789383098224","price":452.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9789383098224.webp?v=1769204073","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/education-as-freedom-tagore-s-paradigm-9789383098224","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
