The Tagore Family: A Memoir (1892) is a book written by James Wyburd Furrell that provides a detailed account of the Tagore family, one of the most prominent families in India during the 19th century. The book is a memoir that covers the life and times of the Tagore family, including their social, cultural, and political influence on India during the British colonial era. The book begins with a brief introduction to the Tagore family and their origins, tracing their lineage back to the 16th century. Furrell then goes on to describe the family's rise to prominence in the 19th century, focusing on the life of Debendranath Tagore, the family patriarch, and his role in shaping the family's fortunes. The book also covers the lives of other prominent members of the Tagore family, including Rabindranath Tagore, the Nobel Prize-winning poet and writer, and his brother Jyotirindranath Tagore, who was a musician, playwright, and painter. Furrell provides a detailed account of their lives, their works, and their contributions to Indian culture and society.Throughout the book, Furrell provides insights into the social and cultural milieu of the Tagore family, including their interactions with the British colonial administration and their involvement in the Indian nationalist movement. He also explores the family's religious beliefs, including their association with the Brahmo Samaj, a reformist Hindu movement that sought to modernize Hinduism.Overall, The Tagore Family: A Memoir (1892) is a comprehensive account of one of India's most influential families, providing readers with a glimpse into their lives, their works, and their contributions to Indian culture and society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
