In the Now Lecture Hall tomorrow afternoon at 4.30 o'clock, Dr. Rabindranath Tagore, the Oriental philosopher and poet, will discuss phases of "Folk Religion in Bengal." This will be the first of two lecterns that Dr. Tagore will deliver here under the auspices of the Department of Philosophy; the second, on "The Meeting of the East and West," to be given at the same time and place next Thursday afternoon. Both lectures will be open without charge to both the members of the University and the public. According to the announcements Dr. Tagore will speak in English.
Some of his most notable works written in English are "The Gardener," "Sadhana," "Nationalism," and "Gitanjali." His fame, however, is due not only to this ability as a writer and a drama list, but also as a philosopher, for he is the modern representative of the long line of Indian philosophers which dates back to ancient times.
