Tagore
Reader comment on item: Why Was Enoch Powell Condemned as a Racist and Not Charles de Gaulle?
Submitted by Vijay (Sweden), Aug 20, 2013 at 14:01
"Rabindranath Tagore of Bengal could never transcend his Indian origins." may mean Tagore tried to transcend his Indian origins, on the contrary he never tried such a thing. While he was open to cultural influences from the west, his audience and constituency was Bengal and India.
