Abstract
This paper looks into the dynamics and performatives of Tagore's school which was established in 1901 at Bolpur in West Bengal. He called it Santiniketan. The paper critiques Tagore's notions of pedagogy in relation to the pregnant network linking the students, teachers and their natural environment; further, it investigates how the school has manifested itself as a green discourse and worked itself out within the dialectic of space and place, giving Tagore's ideas and the pragmatics of execution a fresh circulation of understanding. Here, for the first time, Tagore's ideas on education and nature (eco-pedagogy) are elaborately problematised through the intersections of a variety of thoughts and concepts drawn from contemporary ecocritical studies, ecosophy, discourses on nature, culture, and ethics of humane holism and bioegalitarianism.
