Chapter 1
Introduction

Rabindranath Tagore (1861-1941) was the youngest son of Debendranath Tagore, a leader of the Brahmo Samaj, which was a new religious sect in nineteenth-century Bengal and which attempted a revival of the ultimate monistic basis of Hinduism as laid down in the Upanishads. He was educated at home; and although at seventeen he was sent to England for formal schooling, he did not finish his studies there. In his mature years, in addition to his many-sided literary

    In general, empowerment means having authority and capability to achieve what people want in their chosen ways. In this case, empowerment means having professional skills to overcome gender and national hierarchy system. Women themselves push for empowerment while facing irrational managers and systems. Gloria proves the women’s empowerment as she organizes an elaborate social system and wisely uses loyalty from the 500 operators. In the women’s empowerment NGO, the projects contribute to the women’s empowerment while creating “spaces for women in their communities” (xxviii). In this case, the meaning of the empowerment is the communal organizations, designed and supported by NGOs (xiv). NGOs push because they need the data and the accomplishment of the program (122). However, the result is optimistic because Sangtin rejects “donor-driven” empowerment and reconstruct self-determination “shaped by structures of caste, class and religion” (135). In the case of Microfinance loans, the project constrains the women’s empowerment by separating women from the group and from the opportunity. In the case, the meaning of the empowerment is the access to the materials, and NGO is pushing for it, influenced by the development, poverty, and gender discourses. The result is pessimistic while women are left with the debt, are still the victims of the debt. Daughters, rather than sons, are deprived of the opportunity for…

This book is now in the public domain in the United States and in India; because it’s original copyright owned by the Macmillan Company has expired.

Many of the verses in Gitanjali are beautiful prayers written after a gut-wrenchingly painful period in Rabindranath Tagore’s life, during which he lost his father, wife, daughter and a son in quick succession. His unfathomable pain and unshaken devotion to God are captured in the moving proseverses of Gitanjali, which Tagore dedicated as “Song Offerings”. For a reader uninitiated in Tagore, it is our humble recommendation that they read the prose-verses of Gitanjali only after gaining familiarity with some of his other works. His books My Reminiscences, Glimpses of Bengal, Sadhana and Nationalism are a great place to start and are available for a free download at our website…

    Macbeth Probably composed in late 1606 or early 1607, Macbeth is the last of Shakespeare 's four great tragedies, the others being Hamlet, King Lear and Othello. It is a relatively short play without a major subplot, and it is considered by many scholars to be Shakespeare 's darkest work. Lear is an utter tragedy in which the natural world is amorally indifferent toward mankind, but in Macbeth, Shakespeare adds a supernatural dimension that purposively conspires against Macbeth and his kingdom. In the tragedy of Lear, the distraught king summons the goddess of…

    Abhijñānaśākuntalam is a well known Sanskrit play written by Kalidasa. It means “token-recognised- Śakuntalā” ("Śakuntalā recognized by a token"). It is an elaboration upon an episode mentioned in the Mahabharata, protagonist of which is Śakuntalā, the daughter of Vishwamitra and Menaka . Its date is uncertain, but Kalidasa is often placed in the period between the 1st century BC and 4th century AD. In this paper the thematic, structural and other similarities and differences between the play and the modernist novel The Scarlet Letter (1850) written by Nathaniel Hawthorne are discussed. Also, the other literary aspects of the play are critically analysed.…
