Rabindranath began writing from an early age. He mostly rejected formal schooling; he spent much time being taught at home. In 1878 he travelled to England and sought to study law at University College, London, but he left before finishing the degree.

After returning to India, in 1901, Tagore moved to Shantiniketan to found an ashram which became his focal point for writing and his view on schooling. He chose the name for the ashram – Shantiniketan meaning ‘Abode of Peace’

In 1913, Tagore was awarded the Nobel Prize for literature for his work ‘Gitanjali‘ This made his writings internationally known.

Tagore had a great love for nature and many of his poems invoke the simple beauties of the natural world. He composed over 2,000 songs which have been popularised and sung widely across Bengal. Tagore is unique for being the official composer for the national anthem of India’s Jana Gana Mana .

In 1919, Tagore returned his knighthood in protest at the Jallianwala Bagh Massacre, in which many peaceful Indian protesters were killed.
