NATIONALISM

THE WORKS OF SIR RABINDRANATH TAGORE Personality Preparing An interesting series of lectures among which are "What Is Art," "Meditation," "My School," "The Second Birth," and "The World of Personality." The Cycle of Spring Preparing Tagore represents a rare development of dramatic genius, one peculiarly Indian in character. In his plays there is little striv- ing after ordinary stage effects, no bid for a curtain, no holding up of the moment of suspense, in order to force a sensation with which we are so familiar on our American stage. He attains a naturalness of style, a simplicity of mode, a fluidity of movement, which is congenially influenced by the musical affinity of his themes and the leisurely drama of the open air and the courtyard. Sacrifice and Other Plays Preparing A book containing four separate plays consisting of " Sacri- fice," "King and Queen," "The Ascetic," and "Malini."
