Nationalism, by Rabindranath Tagore (1861 - 1941)
Nationalism is more of an essay than an academic work. This contains Tagore's ruminations on nationalism from his extensive travels. It is divided into chapters on Nationalism in the West, Nationalism in Japan, Nationalism in India, and fittingly it is ended by a poem originally written in Bengali. (Summary by )
Source text (please read only from this text!): https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/40766

Target completion date: 2024-04-30

Prooflistening level: Standard
Prospective PLs, please see the Guide for Proof-listeners.

IMPORTANT - soloist, please note: in order to limit the number of languishing projects on our server, we ask that you post an update at least once a month in your project thread, even if you haven't recorded anything. If we don't hear from you for three months, your project may be opened up to a group project if a Book Coordinator is found. Files you have completed will be used in this project. If you haven't recorded anything yet, your project will be removed from the forum (contact any admin to see if it can be re-instated).

Please don't download or listen to files belonging to projects in process unless you are the BC or PL. Our servers are not set up to handle the greater volume of traffic. Please wait until the project has been completed. Thanks!

I've fixed the text link , you posted a link to the cover image - your MC will need to change it in the database. It is a great choice, I'm sorry I'm unable to MC it for you. ... Anne

Dear Anne,
Thank you for your response and the clarification regarding the link. I appreciate your support.

I'm eager to proceed with the project. Could you kindly guide me through the process of obtaining an MC and explain their role in managing the project? Additionally, I'd like to confirm whether I should begin the recording process or await further instructions by MC.

Your assistance in navigating these initial steps would be immensely helpful. Thank you for your time and guidance.

Best regards,
SP
