Creativity of Rabindrnath -(1876-1877

It is seen in the last chapter that Rabindranath's "banaful" kabyagrantha and Pralap, a bundle of poems was published in  Jnanankur O Pratibimba .  Three sarga of Banaful and two bundles of poems of Pralap was already published. the present year the following writings is published;
1. Baishakh - Pralap
2. Jaishtha - Banaful, 4th sarga
                     Banaful, 5th Sarga
3. Shraban - Banaful - 6th Sarga
4. Bhadra - Banaful -7th sarga
5. Kartik - Banaful -8th sarga
Rabindranath published in "Saishab Sangeet Kabyagrantha" poems written in the age between 13 and 18 years . But he did not include at that time the poems , Abhilas, Hindu Melar Upahar, Prakritir Khed.He also did not include Pralap. Pralap was first included in Centenary Publication of W.B. Govt. "Banaful" was first included as a book in  9 Mar 1880. Rabindranath wrote in the manuscript of Jibansmriti that his elder brothers, satyaprasad and Somerndranath, after 3/4 years published in the form of a book in their own initiative.
In the issue of Jnanankur O Pratibimba where publication of Banaful Kabya ended ,first critical essay "Bhuban Mohini Pratibha , abasar sarojini/O dukkha sangini "was published. He wrote, "The first prose essay I wrote, was also published in the same magazine, Jnanankur. That was a critical estimate But his first prose essay , Grahagan Jiber Abasbhumi", an astronomical essay, was published in Tattwabodhini.But this essay was also not published in any collection of essays. But when he heard from one of his friend that a B.A. criticised his essay, he thought, "I was clearly feeling that the person , with different quotations , perforated my essay which I erected as a monument, left my face not to open to anybody." This was not due to Rabindranath.
An essay titled 'Pralap Sagar'  was published in Jnanankur O Pratibimba in falgun, Chitra of 1282 and Baishakh, asharh, and Ashwin and Kartik with unknown writer. Dr. Sukumar Sen opposed it and claimed this is written by Rabindranath.
11th session of Hindu Mela was held on 18th feb 1877 at tala Garden House of Raja Badan Chand. But it could not be held due police disturbance. Rabindranath was prepared to recite a poem written by him based on the last Delhi Darbar. Any way he read the poem and sung the song afterwards in the courtyard.
The renowned poet Nabin Chandra Sen mentioned in his memoirs , "I remember that in my holidays I went to see National Mela in Calcutta subarbs in 1876 [ may be 1877] . One recently introduced friend caught hold my hand in the crowed and told me some one is waiting to be introduced with me and he took me  to corner where a youth looked handsome and youth was standing with white loose trousers, aged 18/19 yrs, calm and quiet. As if  a golden idol was placed there. My friend said, he is the youngest son of Maharsi Devendranath, Rabindranath. His elder brother Jyotirindranath was my class mate in Presidency College. I saw the same beauty, same dress.We finished hand shaking each other. Then he picked up a notebook sing some songs and recited some poems. "
The poem was not printed in any magazine. Probably, due to the Vernacular press act enforced by the British Govt.
The following 4 songs written by Rabindranath may be sung in the "under Tree Asar"
1. Dhako re mukhachandrama,
2.tomari tare ma sampinu e deha

3. Ayee bishadini bina, aay sakhi
4.Bharat re tor kalankita paramanurashi.
The songs are probably created at the inspiration of Sanjibani Sabha.
In the magazine Aryadarsan a portion of Fulabala gitika was published. Though at the end it was written "Kramasa" but nothing was printed later on in the magazine. at present it is published in Rabindrarachanabali and subsequently in Saisab Sangeet in 29 May 1884.
Swarnakumari Devi (Bengali: স্বর্ণকুমারী দেবী) (28 August 1855 – 3 July 1932) was an Indian poet, novelist, musician and social worker.

 She was the first among the women writers in Bengali to gain prominence.
Swaranakumari Devi's "Gatha" was published in 20 Dec 1880.4 Gathas are included here.Sh is the first Gatha writer in Bengali literature. Rabindranath followed the path of his elder sister in writing Gatha.

Though we do not have the complete works of Phoolbala, the last song was, " Dekhe ja ,Dekhe Ja, lo tora/sadher kanane mor." Another song was ,"Golapa phool phutiya ache".
In this year another poetry was published in Tattwabodhini in Jan/Feb 1877 which was revealed by Sajani Kanta Das. Rabindranath replied to a question, "there was none to write such poetry in Tattwabodhini.
"Taraka-Kusumachay charaye akashmay" , this is the first line of the 8 lines of a poetry "Rupantar" , a translated one
Rabindranath was already acquainted with "Prachin Kabya Sangraha" edited by Akshay Chandra Sarkar and Sarada Charan Mitra. Its Brajabuli language mixed with Maitheli of Bidyabati
was unpenetrating. But it attracted Rabindranath's mind. He made its language, rhythm, and imageries within his grasp.and wrote a series of poems "Bhanu singher Padabali".He was saltisfied to write, "Gahana Kusumakunja Majhe". Rabindranath said that some poems of Bhanusinger padabali was written at the age 15/16

Crewativity of Rabindranath, (1875-1876)

Rajnarayan Basu took up the responsibility of propagating Barahmmo Religion giving up hi profession as a teacher.He was one of the admirer of Rabindranath's poetic talent.But Rabindranath didnot like the list of English poets submitted by Rajnarayan. He didnot like Mark Akenside topping the list.
His preference of studying English poets was expressed in Malati Punthi. He preferred Irish Melodies of Thomas Moore and Child Harold's Pilgrimage of Byron. Rabindranath translated many stanzas of Irish Melodies.
A stanza of original work of Irish Melodies and Rabindranath's translation is as follows,
"As slow our ship her foamy track
Against the wind was cleaving,
her trembling  pennant stilllook'd back
To that dear Isle'twas leaving"
translation is (written in English Alphabets)
"Pratikul Bayubhare Urmmimay Sindhupare
Tarikhani jetyechila Dhiri
Kampaman Ketu Tar , chechila katabar
Se dwiper pane phiri phiri."
It was not possible for anybody known to Rabindranath to remain indifferent to the symptoms developed about the talent of Rabindranath in writing poetry. Rabindranath had classmates with renowned personality, such as Debendranath Banerjee, Manoranjan Das, Prabodh Chandra Ghosh, Surendranath Mitra, Badan Chandra chandranath, Jnanchandra and Nirodnath Mukherjee, Debendranath Roy, anandalal sanyal, and Nabakrishna Saha.Among the classmates the name of Among the classmates of Rabindranath Prabodh Ch. Ghosh was well known. He is the person who first printed Kabygrantha, Kabikahini, of Rabindranath.
In Letts' Diary he wrote Prthirajer Parajay, banaful, Abhilash, Hindumelar upahar and Prakritir Khed.
Rabindranath possessed some novel thinking.
In Silaidah gardener used come to their house and decorated the house with flowers daily. One day Rabindranath thought that he would write  poems with the coloured  juice coming out from  the flowers. he made a plan. A wooden flower vase be made with a hole at the bottom and the flowers be pasted with a hammer. As he thought things were prepared by Jyotirindranath with whom he was living. But the juice did not come out by pasting with hammer. The flowers became pasted and formed something like mud. the juice and the presure of the hammer could not produce any rhythm..
After staying for about one month Rabindranath came from  Selaidah this (2 nd time) time.
2nd session of Biddwatjana Samagama was held last night in Sreejukta Baboo Gunendranath Thakur's house. Rabindranath read an essay inverse "Prakritir Khed",from his  own writing.Prakritir Khed was publishedin different form in "Pratibimba". memory.
Rabindranath recited "Hok Bharater Jay' in Hindu Mela from his. memory.

Creativity of Rabindranath in 1874-1875

At this time Ramsarbaswa Bidyabhusan (Bhattacharya) was appointed as a private tutor. He took him to Vidyasagar to impress him about the talent of Rabindranath in translating Macbeth in Bengali verse.

In this year in the month of Agrahayan Abhilash (1st printed verse of Rabindranath)was published in Tattwabodhini  [ p-148-150] with 39 stanza mentioning this it was  written by a twelve year old boy.This was explained in detail by Sajanikanta Das in the life time of Rabindranth

After the publication of Abhilash in Tattwabodhini in Agrahayan, in the next month Paush, an astronomical essay titled, Grahagan Jiber Abasbhumi, was published.

Rabindranth's talent was expressed the 9th session of Hindu Mela. He recited a self written poetry on the occasion.This was published in daily papers mentioning his name. Brajendranath Bandyopadhyay mentioned the news in Indiand Daily News on 15th Feb 1875. " The Hindu Mela The ninth anniversary of Hindoo Mela was opened at 4 P.M., on Thursday , the 11th instant, at the well known Parseebagan on the Circular Road, by Rajesh Kamal Krishna Bahadur, the president of the National Society .../Baboo Rabindranath Tagore son of Baboo Devendranath Tagore , a handsome ladf of 15, had composed a Bengali poem on Bharat(India)which he delivered from memory The sauvity of the tone much pleased his audience."

This was first publication mentioning his name.

A few years earlier Rathindraghatak Choudhury reprinted a rarely found poetry written by Rabindranath in 80 lines, titled "Hok Bharate jay".

Rabindranath's mother, Sarada debi died on 10 Mar 1875 when his age was 13yrs 10months.

In Rabindranath's writings very few lines were spent for his mother. Only in the magazine of Puja issue of Agamoni edited by Suresh Ch. Samajpati 6 small poems were written titled "Matribandana" Among them one was "Janani Tomar Karuna Charanakhani". 

An important chapter in Rabindranath's life was opened this year. , That is the introduction of Baishnab Padabali Sahitya in his life.  He studied deeply the writings Bidyapathi's padabali'. This was expressed in his writings in different essays.

On 23 Jan 1875, 45th anniversary was celebrated in its Samajmandir. Where 10 Brahmma Sangeet were sung. Among which one was written by Rabindranath;"Gaganer Thale Rabi ChandraDipakajale."

Creativity of Rabindranath

At the age of 7/8
"My age did not exceed 7/8 . One day one of my nephew Sreejukta Jyotiprakash [ Jyotiprakash Gangopadhyay (1855-1959) ,  son of Ganendranath's  elder sister  and her husband, Jajneshprakas Gangopadhyay.), a few years older than me, called me in his room and said 'you have  to write poems.  I donot know why he inspired a child like me to write poems. "
Rabindranath wrote in "Chelebela", "I remember that I wrote once a poem in 'tripadi, payar' and
I expressed my sorrow, if one  tries to pluck lotus while swimming, lotus will move as one proceeds.'""At first Rabindranath wrote poems on lotus, these are the 'ADI KABITA' of Tagore.
Rabitalent was also expressed in songs, lyrics, and set to music.
This was the beginning of his creativity.
Rabindranath's creativity is also dependent on music. Rabindranath said in his 1st Pandulipi, "We were brought up in the atmosphere of Music.I could not remember the time I was not able to sing."
Rabindranath was trained in music by four music teachers.
1. Dilip Kumar Mukhopadhyay, 1st music teacher,
2. Bishnu Chandra Chakraborty, 3. Seekanthya Singh,  and 4. Jadu Bhatta.
23rd Jan 1870 40th anniversary of Adi Brahmmosamaj was held when  Devendranath was at Banaras  on the way to Himalayas. In Kartik issue of Tattwabodhini , five songs were published as the supplement to the magazine . 1. 'Tumi bina ke pravu sangkata nibare', 2. 'he karunakara dinasakha tumi', 3. 'darasana dao he kaatare', 4. 'Kata je karuna tomar bhuliba na e jibane' and 5.'Kara taar nam gan.' -  These five Brahmma sangeet were written on the occasion.. The last one was written by Dwijendranath and the othession r four songs were written by Satyendranath. The musical notations were written by Dwijendranath. These songs were sung in the maghotsab this year. Rabindranath possessing sweet voice  was not left to join.
At the age of 10
The qualities of Rabindranath was gradually developing in various ways which we got  from  different sources.Debendranath on 31 Dec 1871 from Amritsar  wrote to the famous leader of Brahmmo Samaj, Bacharam Chattopadhyay, "I became glad to learn  that Rabindra etc joined as devotee." It is learnt from that letter , Rabindranath joined as a singer in the 18th yearly session of Behala Brahmmo Samaj.
On another occasion Rabindranath took part as a singer which was mentioned in National Paper, " The evening service commenced at 8 P.M. with the chanting of a beautiful hymn by little children."
The picture we got of the formal education so far undergone by Rabindranath was really disappointing.But his study in different sphere portraited the introduction of his future life as a writer/ He wrote ,"In my childhood the size of the Bengali literature was thin. Still he finished all the books he got".The list of his study materials was very big
On 6th Feb 1873, Somendranath, Rabindranath and Satyaprasad got their sacred thread. Rabindranath being unable to attend firing i school with bare head, accompanied Devendranath to go to Himalayas.They stopped stopped at Bolpur Santiniketan on 4th Falgoon 1279. Here Rabindranath was taking lesson in English and Sanskrit from his father and getting leisure through out the day. In this open atmosphere the power of writing poems of Rabindranath was gradually increasing.
In the mean time he finished writing poems in Blue Khata and started writing in Letts' Diary. .In the
atmosphere of Patriotism in Jorasanko Thakur bari the story heroism of Hindu king Prithwiraj left a scar in the minds of Rabindranath.In this context the novel, Dipanirban depicting the tragedy of the  story of Prithwiraj against Muhammad Ghori touched the minds of Rabindranath.Mar 1873 rabindranath wrote a novel titled Prithwirajer Parajay. It can be mentioned that Rudrachanda of Rabindranath bears  the resemblance of Prithwirajer Parajay This novel was written in  Letts'Diary This is the first novel Written by Rabindranath at the age of 12. Before writing his creativity in Malati Punthi Rabindranath used to write in Letts'Diary.
Rabindranath started writing his works in three manuscript. 1.Blue Khata, 2. Letts'Diary and 3. Malati Punthi one after another. In this hard bound Letts' diary Rabindranath wrote his first poem "Avilash" and Hindumelar Upahar.
Creativity of Rabindranath includes organising ability.He organised along with Jyotirindranath Saraswat Samaj in 1289. 4 th April 1874 in the presence of 100 persons Bidwajana Samagama was formed. These organisations are the basis of Bangiya Sahitya Sabha. The pioneer thinker of this concept was John Beams.

Abhilash was the first printed poetry of Rabindranath. His age at that time was 12 yrs 7 months.

Rabindranath at 23

The year 1884 was a remarkable year in Tagore family.  The family lost three important members. On 8 January, Keshab Chandra Sen, on 19 April, Kadambari Devi (an unnatural death), and on 5 June, Hemendranath Tagore. This was a great loss to the Tagore family, specially the untimely death of Hemendranath Tagore at the age of 40 years.
Rabindranath's creativity was in full spate. In "Rabindra Jiban Katha" Prabhat Kumar Mukhopadhyaya said that, sometimes, the mind of Rabindranath became peculiarly detached from the earthly feelings. He himself said that "forgetfulness is one of the motive force of livelihood".  He wrote in a poetry,
"Hetha hote jao puratan,
Hethay Natun Khela Arambha hoyeche".
The close relation  Rabindranath possessed with Kadambari was known to everybody. and the pain he bore for the sad and sudden death of Kadambari. When his mother died Rabindranath ( nearly 14 yrs old) 
was sleeping, when his elder sister-in-law, Sarbasundari De vi died he was at Ahmedabad, his elder brother-in-law Saradaprasad died in the day of his marriage.He had no direct knowledge about death so far. But the pathetic and painful death of Kadambari occurred before his eyes. The death occurred in childhood can easily be forgotten but the death occurred in adult life leaves a deep scar on ones heart.For that he had to bear the deep wound he got at the death of Kadambari.
This pain he expressed in his recent publication Pushpanjali. Though this was published in Bharati in Baishakh issue of  1292. 

Kadambari an inspiration

Kadambari Devi was married with Jyotirindranath Thakur in July 1868 when she was 9 years (born 1859) and Jyotirindranath 19 (born  1849).At that time Rabindranath was 7 (born 1861) and began writing poetry in 1869 when he was 8. Mother of Rabindranath, Sarada Devi, died in March 1875 when Rabindranath was 14.
Rabindranath went to London from Bombay in Sept 1878 at the age of 17 (10 yrs contact with Kadambari, childhood friend) and returned in Feb 1880 and one and 1/2 years later. Rabindranath was married in Dec 1883 ( 4 yrs contact in adolescent stage) at the age of 22. Kadambari died in April 1884 when Rabindranath was 22. Hence Rabindranath had close acquaintance with Kadambari 16 yrs less 1&1/2 for remaining absent on study in London. This period is divided in two parts.
 Rabindranath had close contact with Kadambari in two overlapping  phases, 1.child and 2.adolescent.
She inspired young Rabindranath in composing many of his poems with her creative feedback and comments. She was also a good friend and playmate. She was one of the women who played a very important part in his life. Her relationship with Tagore was controversial and had elements of tragedy. 
Krishna Kripalani, who married Tagore's granddaughter, writes in his own biography of Tagore, the futility of speculating on the causes of the suicide by Kadambari Devi.
The effect of Kadambari Devi's death on the mind of Rabindranath can readily be established from Tagore's own words expressed in  a correspondence to a young Amiya Chakraborty of about 16, who would, a decade or so later, become Tagore's literary secretary for a period of time. Tagore wrote to him in 1917 (Kripalani's translation):

Once, when I was about your age, I suffered a devastating sorrow, similar to yours now. A very close relative  of mine committed suicide, and she had been my life's total support, right from childhood onward. And so with her unexpected death it was as if the earth itself receded from beneath my feet, as though the skies above me all went dark. My universe turned empty, my zest for life departed.

In 1884, there were three sad deaths: On 8 January, Keshab Chandra Sen, on  19 April, Kadambari Devi (an unnatural death), and on 5 June,  Hemendranath Tagore. This was a great loss to the Tagore family, specially the untimely death of Hemendranath Tagore at the age of 40 years. In his reminiscences, Rabindranath spent more than 2,500 words to explain the loss of Kadambari Devi. He wrote that his mother's death did not affect him so strongly for  he was too young ( 14 years old) and Kadambari Devi, aged 16, assumed the role of a surrogate maternal figure. Tagore's biographer, Prabhat Kumar Mukhopadhyaya, writes that she was more a playmate.  A number of poems written by Rabindranath at different times expresses his deep sorrow.  He dedicated four books to her before her death and two more after. In 1901, he portrayed her as Charu in Nashtanir.  Mr. Krishna Kripalini concluded that

"I have nothing more to add to this controversy. I, personally, believe that, with my little knowledge of Rabindranath Tagore and his family life, Kadambari Devi was in love with him, and when his marriage was organised by  his family she was heartbroken and committed suicide. (http:// forums.sulekha.com/forums/coffeehouse/kadambari-devi-rabindranath-tagore) 

Rabindranath was engaged in writing poems for Karhi O Komal . He wrote a prose drama " Nalini" "Bibaha Utsab" was staged on the occasion marriage ceremony of Hiranmayee and Akshay Choudhury. for this marriage ceremony Rabindranath created 45 songs. Rabindranath created 8 Brahmo songs for Maghotsab.
