Autorenporträt
Rabindranath Tagore (1861-1941) was an Indian poet, writer, playwright, composer, philosopher, social reformer, and painter who reshaped Bengali literature and music as well as Indian art. In 1913 he became the first non-European and the first lyricist to win the Nobel Prize in Literature. His rejection of rigid classical forms and linguistic strictures enabled him to compose works known for their lyricism, colloquialism, naturalism, and optimism.
