Scholars have long debated the very idea of a Bengal Renaissance. The controversies have been largely over whether there was a renaissance at all and its significance from social political and cultural perspectives. This book addresses the issue from the perspective of philosophy of science and the psychology of creativity. Dasgupta shows that the Bengal Renaissance is characterized by a collective cognitive identity which had its roots in British orientalism and flowered within a remarkable community of creative individuals in nineteenth century Bengal which included writers reformers mystics and scientists. Dasgupta outlines the core work of such notable figures as Rammohun Roy Henry Derozio Michael Madhusudan Datta Bankimchandra Chattopadhyay J.C. Bose P.C. Ray Sri Ramakrishna Swami Vivekananda and Rabindranath Tagore. He analyses their distinctive style contribution to an intellectual milieu and effect on cultural life. The author unveils the precise cognitive nature of their creativity in Indology theology literature science and practical religion. He demonstrates their cross cultural mentality and universalism arguing that their creativity represents a cognitive revolution in Indian cultural history. Accessible and elegantly written this is a book for general readers looking for an introduction to the Bengal Renaissance scholars familiar with the area will find its perspective both novel and compelling. 280 pp.
