This book attempts to unravel the worldview of two prominent
Indians of recent Indian history - Tagore and Vivekananda. Both
suggested emancipation through political struggles but without
transgressing the boundaries of humanism. This is significant, as
identifying an enemy was an intrinsic part of nationalistic
formulations. The larger philosophy of life, for Tagore and
Vivekananda, was to reach out across geographical borders. In this
work, their alternative idea of India is analysed in the larger
context of the many formulations of nationalism with special
reference(s) to theoretical as well as literary works in European
and Indian contexts. The author brings on board critiques that have
emerged recently -secularist, feminist and postcolonial - and
defends his subjects against them. This book is essentially an
intellectual interrogation of two eminent thinkers of their time,
and falls within the rubric of intellectual history.
