Manasi
Manasi, collection of poems by Bengali poet Rabindranath Tagore, first published in 1890. Although this collection marked the maturation of Tagore’s poetic genius, it nevertheless contains themes of youthful romanticism. Whether addressing nature or love, the work emphasizes duality: the primitive is contrasted with the domesticated, the body with the soul.
