''Modern Review'' was the name of a monthly magazine published in Calcutta since 1907. Founded by Ramananda Chatterjee, the ''Modern Review''〔(...MODERN REVIEW:1935 issue chronicled the ''12th Prabasi Banga-Sahitya Sammelan'' - for the missing p. 141, see Photograph of the Banga Sammelan )〕 soon emerged as an important forum for the Indian Nationalist intelligentsia. It carried essays on politics, economics, sociology, as well as poems, stories, travelogues and sketches. Radhakamal Mukerjee published his early, pioneering essays on environmental degradation in India here and Verrier Elwin reports from the Gond country were first published here. Another indication of the journal’s stature was the publication, within its pages, of Jawaharlal Nehru’s pseudonymous autocritique ''Rashtrapati'', by ‘Chanakya’ in November 1937.〔(The independent journal of opinion )〕 Ramachandra Guha indicates that that alone was evidence that it was "leading journal of the progressive Indian intelligentsia."〔 Ramachandra Guha. (24 April 2005).(A mask that was pierced? ) ''The Hindu''. Retrieved 30 July 2015.〕 The ''Modern Review'' had a sister magazine ''Prabasi'', which was published in Bengali - ''Modern Review'' appeared in English. With a broadly nationalistic outlook, it did not follow the line of any particular political party. This meant that it could act as an all-India forum and that it stood apart from party journals concurrently run by the Indian National Congress, the Communists, the Muslim League, the Khaksar Tehrik Hindu Mahasabha and the Scheduled Castes Federation. Its only real competitor was the ''Indian Social Reformer''. The Hindu Guru Swami Nigamananda's collection ''Thakurer Chithi'' (ঠাকুরের চিঠি) was published in this magazine in 1941 (other reference date:26 December 1938). ==See also== *Thakurer Chithi *Drighangchoo 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Modern Review (Calcutta)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
