A Text Compilation of Educational Texts from Santiniketan

Partha Mitter
publication date: 01.2019

Mitter’s selection of texts are published in a journal format for audiences to read. They range from Tagore’s reflections on his childhood abhorrence for the normative and disciplinarian teaching methods employed by colonial schools, which provoked his desire to reform education; excerpts from the collected writings of Nandalal Bose that describe his teaching method; practical and theoretical instruction from modernist master Benode Behari Mukherjee; to an example of K. G. Subramanyan’s prolific writings on art, aesthetics, pedagogy, and cultural translation.
