Tagore was a writer, dramatist, philosopher, artist, and musician whose work reflects society. In 1913, he became the first non-European to be awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature. Rabindranath Tagore has been the only individual whose compositions have been adopted as national anthems in 2 countries: India (Jana Gana Mana) and Bangladesh (Amar Sonar Bangla). Tagore’s writings, which are still significant now, serve as a guide to all students.<div>Tagore was a Bengali polymath who excelled in many fields, including poetry, writing, playwriting, composition, philosophy, social change, and painting. With Conceptual Modernist architecture in the early 20th century centuries, he altered Bengali literature and culture as well as Indian art. He was the first non-European to win the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1913, for his work Gitanjali, which was “tremendously sympathetic, new, and exquisite poetry.” Tagore, a Bengali Brahmin from Calcutta with aristocratic ancestors from Burdwan and Jessore, began writing poems at the age of eight.
