Polymathe bengali qui a profondément renouvelé la littérature et la musique de sa région. Auteur de « Gitanjali », dont les vers sont, selon la Fondation Nobel, « d'une sensibilité profonde, d'une fraîcheur et d'une beauté remarquables », il fut le premier lauréat non européen du prix Nobel, qu'il reçut en 1913 pour la littérature.
