Overview

First published in 1905, The Golden Threshold is a beautiful collection of Indic poetry by activist and poet Sarojini Naidu (1879- 1949). Contents include: Folk Songs , Songs for Music , and Poems . Naidu was a staunch proponent of women's emancipation, civil rights, and anti-imperialistic ideas, playing an important role in India's struggle for independence from colonial rule. Her work as a poet includes both children's poems and others written on more serious themes including patriotism, romance, and tragedy, earning her the sobriquet Nightingale of India . Her most famous work is In the Bazaars of Hyderabad (1912), which remains widely read to this day. Other notable works by this author include: The Bird of Time: Songs of Life, Death & the Spring (1912) and Muhammad Jinnah: An Ambassador of Unity (1919). This classic work is being republished now in a new edition complete with an introductory chapter from 'Studies of Contemporary Poets' by Mary C. Sturgeon.
