The Changing Voice of Indian English Writing

Languages are never neutral - they carry histories, burdens and power. When Rabindranath Tagore penned his timeless lines, India was not just a land but an imagination-aching to be free, struggling to discover its voice under the heavy weight of colonial rule.

With Gitanjali, he did not merely write poetry; he redefined how the East could speak to the West, blending spirituality, simplicity, and lyricism into a universal language. His Nobel Prize in 1913 was not just a personal honour; it was India's first assertion that its voice, even in English, could resonate across continents.
