摘要:This paper explores Tagore's engagement with the wave of emancipation of womenin the nineteenth century Bengal. Tagore's position was not akin to that of an extremist.Rather, he opted for a mid-way while representing female voices in his works. This paper focusesonthree of Tagore's female protagonists -Mrinmayi, Uma and Mrinal -from The Conclusion(Samapti), Exercise-Book (Khata) and The Wife's Letter (Streer Patra) to showhow their repeated individual scripting are mercilessly thwarted by social interventions
