The four names of great men from Sindh that he gave, included three former students of Sindh Madressah.

  • Studying Muhammad Iqbal's Works in Azerbaijan
    Studying Muhammad Iqbal’s Works in Azerbaijan 65 Studying Muhammad Iqbal’s Works in Azerbaijan Dr. Basira Azizaliyeva* Abstract Muhammad Iqbal (1877-1938) was Pakistan‘s prominent poet, philosopher and Islamic scholar. His works are characterized by a number of essential features. Islam, love philosophy, perfect humans were expressed in unity, in Iqbal‘s worldview. Iqbal performed as an advocate of humanism, global peace and cordial relations between East and West based on peaceful and tolerant values. He awakened the Muslims‘ material-spiritual development in the 20th century. Having a special propensity for Sufism, the writer was enriched and inspired by the work of the great Turkic Sufi thinker and poet Mevlana Jalāl Ad Dīn Rūmī. Muhammad Iqbal acted as a poet, philosopher, lawyer and teacher. Illuminator and reformer M. Iqbal, who was politically active, also gave concept for the establishment of the state of Indian Muslims in north-western India. The human factor is the main subject of M. Iqbal's thinking. The poet-thinker perceived Islamic society, as well as human pride as the centrifugal force of the whole world, and considered creative and moral relations as an important factor in solving the problems of human society. The questions that Iqbal adopted on the social and philosophical thinking of the East and the West were also directed to this important problem. M. Iqbal spoke from the position of the Islamic religion and at the same time correctly assessed the role of Islam in the modern world, and also invited the Islamic world to develop science and education. This article highlights number of research studies accomplished in Azerbaijan on poetry and philosophical works of Muhammad Iqbal.

  • Loving Sovereignty: Political Mysticism, Şeyh Galib, and Giorgio Agamben
    Loving Sovereignty: Political Mysticism, Şeyh Galib, and Giorgio Agamben Arif Camoglu Comparative Literature Studies, Volume 58, Number 1, 2021, pp. 1-22 (Article) Published by Penn State University Press For additional information about this article https://muse.jhu.edu/article/781861 [ Access provided at 16 Feb 2021 14:11 GMT from Northwestern University Library ] loving sovereignty: political mysticism, şeyh galİ b, and giorgio agamben Arif Camoglu abstract Centering on the poetry of Şeyh Galib (1757–1799), this article considers Ottoman imperial sovereignty in tandem with the discourse of mysticism that underpinned it. A key rhetorical device that enables the abstraction of the politics of empire in this discourse is the metaphor of the beloved sov- ereign. In the mystical writing of Galib, this metaphor gives a spiritual edge to the authority of the sultan and expands the reach of his power beyond its physical limits. The metaphor of the beloved sovereign neutralizes sover- eignty as it turns submission into an act of love, a voluntary abandonment of political agency. To elucidate this obscured dimension of power in Galib’s mysticism, I draw on Giorgio Agamben’s notion of “potentiality.” Proposing that one must pay heed to potentiality in order to dig into “the ontological root of every political power,” Agamben considers “love” the proper medium of a potential resistance to sovereignty. Galib’s poetry, on the other hand, illuminates that which is not addressed in this analogy: love can occasion a commitment to sovereignty that forces itself upon the subject as an “onto- logical” condition, in the way Agamben terms it.

  • Women Novelists in Indian English Literature
    WOMEN NOVELISTS IN INDIAN ENGLISH LITERATURE DR D. RAJANI DEIVASAHAYAM S. HIMA BINDU Associate Professor in English Assistant Professor in English Ch. S. D. St. Theresa’s Autonomous College Ch. S. D. St. Theresa’s Autonomous for Women College for Women Eluru, W.G. DT. (AP) INDIA Eluru, W.G. DT., (AP) INDIA Woman has been the focal point of the writers of all ages. On one hand, he glorifies and deifies woman, and on the other hand, he crushes her with an iron hand by presenting her in the image of Sita, the epitome of suffering. In the wake of the changes that have taken place in the society in the post-independence period, many novelists emerged on the scene projecting the multi-faceted aspects of woman. The voice of new Indian woman is heard from 1970s with the emergence of Indian English women novelists like Nayantara Sehgal, Anitha Desai, Kamala Markandaya, Ruth Prawer Jhabvala, Arundhati Roy, Shashi Deshpande, Gita Mehta, Bharathi Mukherjee, and Jhumpha Lahiri.. These Feminist writers tried to stamp their authority in a male dominated environment as best as it is possible to them. This paper focuses on the way these women writers present the voice of the Indian woman who was hitherto suppressed by the patriarchal authority. Key words: suppression, identity, individuality, resistance, assertion. INTRODUCTION Indian writers have contributed much for the overall development of world literature with their powerful literary expression and immense depth in characterization. In providing global recognition to Indian writing in English, the novel plays a significant role as they portray the multi-faceted problems of Indian life and the reactions of common men and women in the society.

  • Chapter-Ii Journey of Women Novelists in India
    CHAPTER-II JOURNEY OF WOMEN NOVELISTS IN INDIA 2.1 Preliminaries This chapter deals with the study of „novel‟ as a popular literary genre. It traces the advent of the novel in India which is a product of colonial encounter. Essentially dominated by male writers, women‟s writings in the past were looked down upon as inconsequential. Literary contributions by Indian women writers were undervalued on account of patriarchal assumptions which prioritized the works of male experiences. For many women writers, who are products of strong patriarchal cultures, ability to write and communicate in the language of the colonizers represents power. Since English is the language of British-ruled colonies, literature written in English has often been used to marginalize and thwart female point of view. But in the post-colonial era, however, the ability to use language, read, write, speak and publish has become an enabling tool to question the absence of female authorial representation from the literary canon. Post-colonial studies sparks off questions related to identity, race, gender and ethnicity. Since one of the objectives of the post-colonial discourse is aimed at re- instating the marginalized in the face of the dominant some of the aspects it seeks to address through its fictions are those related to women‟s status in society, gender bias, quest for identity among others. As Rosalind Miles remarks, The task of interpretation of women‟s experience cannot be left to male writers alone, however sympathetic they might be. The female perspective expressed through women‟s writings of all kinds is more than a valuable corrective to an all-male view of the universe.1 Taking this argument into consideration, the present chapter will very briefly study the works of women novelists in India.
