Abstract
The subjects of educational interest on which Rabindranath Tagore thought, wrote, and experimented are numerous. That the education of the body is a most important factor in the education of an individual is a commonplace in educational thought, though it has been comparatively ignored in educational practice. The educational as well as the socio-political philosophy of Tagore was marked by a passionate plea for the attainment by his countrymen of the power of self-determination. Tagore’s concept of education as an all-round development of all human faculties for the attainment of a full life was, in its essentials, by no means new or original. The highest aim of education, as borne out by the citations, has always been pitched very high indeed, irrespective of the consideration whether it is attainable by an average man or woman or whether it is attainable at all.
