The majority of Rabindranath Tagore’s books centre on middle-class family life and frequently the situation of an Indian woman who has not yet achieved full emancipation in a patriarchal society. This essay offers a critique of Rabindranath Tagore’s selected books, including Binodini, The Wreck, The Home and the World, and Elder Sister. Women construct and shape the future of nations. Through his heroes, he demonstrated how women develop over the course of history. The novels’ main character is characterised as submissive, tolerant, and open-minded. Most of them are emotionally and financially dependent on males as mothers, wives, and daughters.
The paper’s modest goal is to examine the particulars of social consciousness as they appear in a few of Tagore’s novels.
Key words: Social Consciousness, Rabindranath Tagore, Patriarchal Society.
