  • Mirza Asadullah Khan Ghalib / Diwã¢Ne-Ghalib
    Mirza Asadullah Khan Ghalib / Diwân-e-Ghalib: Complete Translation Into English, Including All the Ghazals, Qasidas, Masnavis, Qitas & Quatrains of the Published Diwan and a Selection from the Unpublished Diwan / Ghalib Institute, 2003 / 2003 It includes all the works of the published Diwan (Ma'ruf) as well as a selection of the unpublished (complete) Diwan known as the Nuskha-e-Hamidia. About the Author: Daughter of a distinguished medical practitioner, the author was inculcated a love of Urdu and Persian poetry at an early age by both parents, especially her erudite mother. The present work is a complete translation in rhymed verse, of the whole of the published Diwan including the ghazals, qasidas (panegyrics), masnavis, qitas and quatrains. Most of the material, not included in the published Diwan as such, but usually published with it, is also presented as Addendum I. This also includes the Sehra or marriage chaplet, subject of a famous controversy with the Poet Laureate, Zawq. The first step in the selection of the trial jury is the selection of a "jury panel". When you are selected for a jury panel you will be directed to report, along with other panel members, to a courtroom which a case is to be heard once a jury is selected. The judge assigned to that case will tell you about the case and will introduce the lawyers and the people involved in the case. You will also take an oath, by which you promise to answer all questions truthfully. Remember that the lawyers are not trying to embarrass you, but are trying to make sure that members of the jury do not have opinions or past experiences which might prevent them from making an impartial decision.

    CULTURAL PLURALITY AND REVIVAL: A STUDY OF THE POETRY OF AGHASHAHIDALI .. ABSTRACT ^ /y. - OF THE THESIS SUBMITTED FOR THE AWARD OF THE DEGREE OF / JBottor of ${|ilos;op))p <•;'•'- '• ENGLISH s SYED HUMAYOUN SHABIR UNDER THE SUPERVISION OF DR. SAMI RAFIQ DEPARTMENT OF ENGLISH ALIGARH MUSLIM UNIVERSITY ALIGARH-202 002 (INDIA) 2013 Abstract The thesis is an attempt to study the poetry of Agha Shahid Ali in detail trying to cover almost whole of his poetry. The thesis has attempted to examine Agha Shahid All's multicultural upbringing and its influence on the themes and techniques of his poetry. Ali sees himself as a part of many cultiires— Kashmiri, Indian, Islamic and Western, and his poetry gives glimpse of his journey from one culture to another, and from one home to another. He writes about his home, both old and new, and tries to retrieve the loss of his culture and home through poetry. I have approached my thesis reading whole of his poetry together, and not forming titles of the chapters based on the title of his books, but on the various themes and concerns that become subject of his poetry. The thesis has been divided into five chapters besides Introduction and Conclusion. Chapter I of the thesis is "Agha Shahid Ali and the Modem Indian English Poetic Tradition." The chapter deals with Ali in context of the post independence modem Indian English poetic tradition; particularly with reference to the poets like Nissim Ezekiel, A K Ramanujan, Kamala Das, Arun Kolatkar, Arvind Krishna Mehrotra, Gieve Patel, Meena Alexander, Shiv K Kumar etc.

  • English Articles
    Experiments in form of Modern Urdu Poetry Here are many unresolved problems in Urdu literature and Nazm is one such genre. It is difficult for us, students of literature. to apprehend the constraints of literary luminaries that made them call a prominent and well known genre as Nazm., while the whole poetic tradition that stands apart from the prose could also be called Nazm. Nevertheless my present article is a synthesis of the two different subjectsModern poetry and Experiments in form. There is room enough for writing two different elaborate articles on both the subjects separately.And there is a need for writing on these subjects since they are still bone of contention. First and foremost Prof. Kalimuddin Ahmad wrote a number of articles on Nazm and tried to elaborate its distinctive qualities. While elaborating Nazm, he emphasized distinctive elements, which are incidentally essential for the popular genres of prose such as novel, drama and short story. Hence no ground was gained. Several critics after Kalimuddin wrote on the subject but a comprehensive definition of Nazm could not be ascertained. Thus a discussion on Nazm as a genre has always proved as allusive as finding a black cat in a dark room. Dr. Wazir Agha has written books and several articles on the subject of Nazm in which he has discussed on various aspects of Nazm vary conducively. Nevertheless he also touched the sensitive issue of the difference between Ghazals and Nazm very superficially saying that Ghazal is the product of the east while Nazm is the product of the west.

  • Baithak: Exorcism in Peshawar (Pakistan)
    Baithak: Exorcism in Peshawar (Pakistan) M u m t a z N a s ir Lok Virsa, Islamabad, Pakistan T h e S e t t in g The word baithak is a Hindi-Urdu word used in Pashto and Hindko of Pakistan and in a general context, it means “ sitting; place to sit.” In Hindko1 of the Peshawar area in Pakistan’s Northwest Frontier Province (NWFP), its meaning includes the specialized sense of this paper, that is, a particular kind of gathering of women2 for exorcism of evil spirits.3 Baithaks played an important role in the life of Peshawar women in the past and although the custom of holding baithaks is now dying out, the practice still survives today among residents of various quarters of the Old City of Peshawar.4 It has two functions, a healing function for treating of psychosomatic illnesses and a social function of providing an opportunity for women who keep purdah (lit. “ curtain ” but meaning the segregation and seclusion of women) to get together. The observance of purdah was strictly maintained in the Peshawar 01 the past, and the province continues to be one of the most conserva­ tive areas of Pakistan in tms respect even today. Women of Peshawar literally could not set foot outside their houses except for a few specific purposes. These were mainly to attend important social occasions, either happy occasions such as a marriage or sad occasions such as a funeral. Walking about in the streets and bazaars for pleasure was con­ sidered highly improper and could have severe consequences.

  • European Academic Research
    EUROPEAN ACADEMIC RESEARCH Vol. II, Issue 3/ June 2014 Impact Factor: 3.1 (UIF) ISSN 2286-4822 DRJI Value: 5.9 (B+) www.euacademic.org Agha Shahid Ali and the Ghazal FATIMA NOORI Research Scholar Department of English & MEL University of Allahabad, Allahabad India Abstract: As Agha Shahid Ali tells us, the ghazal is an Urdu poetic form consisting of ‘autonomous or semi-autonomous couplets that are united by a strict scheme of rhyme, refrain and line length’. The Kashmiri- American poet exploits his unique diasporic position to use this traditional poetic form to write English poetry. Ali belonged to the beautiful land of Kashmir and his movement to America for higher studies, though a personal choice, pained him on separation from his homeland. He therefore always tried to create the same warm, secular, congenial and syncretic culture in the places he lived and in the poetry he wrote. The last volume of Ali, published posthumously in 2003, Call Me Ishmael Tonight is a book of Ghazals in English. This act of writing ghazals in English was Ali’s way of reconciling his two worlds- Kashmir and America. The paper discusses how Ali helped in the popularizing of a new poetic canon, the English ghazal, in the act of rehabilitating his divided loyalties; how the literary form helped Ali re-form his sense of self even when he was creating a new tradition in American poetry. Key words: Agha Shahid Ali, English Ghazal, Rebel’s Silhouette, Ravishing Disunities, Call Me Ishmael Tonight, Translation Faiz Ahmed Faiz, Diaspora, Identity. Agha Shahid Ali was born in February 1949 in New Delhi and brought up in the beautiful valley of Kashmir.

A gentle soul once asked me here to delete my Age and edit profile I read it and just passed a smile I do respect her but I ask: What will happen if I do? Where will go my achievements then? Which are knit in the web of years? The ones that I feel so proud on? Experience of my daily use? I just look back at mile-stones: From cupboard love of childhood phase, Tender touch of youthful age, Somber glow of growing years; A time there was when i was bright Writing poems in moonlit nights, I used to join my hands in faith, Standing westward kept on praying The sun used to sink in the cups of my hands, The fruits of prayers I earned a lot Some I kept and some I lost; Ageing, Friend! is not a loss, Passing years are not a waste Every age has a different taste!
