A Storm of Songs: India and the Idea of the Bhakti Movement

A widely-accepted explanation for Indiaâ€™s national unity is a narrative called the bhakti movementâ€”poet-saints singing bhakti from Indiaâ€™s southern tip to the Himalayas between 600 and 1600. John Hawley shows that this narrative, with its political overtones, was created by the early-twentieth-century circle around Rabindranath Tagore in Bengal.
