Overview of Reminiscences Book

Originally published in Bengali in 1912, Tagore's 'Jivansmriti', an account of the first twenty-seven years of his life, was published in English in 1917. Starting with an account of his spartan upbringing in a large joint family, Tagore describes his early education, his first real acquaintance with his ascetic father on a trip to the Himalayas, his apprenticeship in poetry, music and theatre under the tutelage of his remarkable cousin, Jyotirindranath Tagore, his first visit to England and the composition of his earliest works. The book ends with an important death, that of Jyotirindranath's wife, a death which deeply affected Tagore's poetic personality.
