Viva Voce Committee ___________________________ Prof. Dr. Munawar Iqbal Ahmad Dean Faculty of Languages & Literature ___________________________ Prof. Dr. Munawar Iqbal Ahmad Chairman Department of English ___________________________ External Examiner Prof. Dr. Muhammad Shahbaz Arif ___________________________ External Examiner Prof. Dr. Waseema Shehzad ___________________________ Dr. Muhammad Safeer Awan Supervisor January, 2014 iv ABSTRACT Title: Marxist Utopia and Political Idealism in the Poetry of Pablo Neruda and Faiz Ahmad Faiz: A Comparative Study Comparative literature in its pure, classical form has been on a steady decline since the rise of postcolonial studies that challenged its Eurocentricity and universalist claims. Contrary to the formalistic approach of the European comparatists, postcolonial comparative literary studies focus upon the nexus between aesthetics and politics contributing to the growing multiple perspective approach in the comparative studies field. Pablo Neruda and Faiz Ahmad Faiz are the two eminent, socially-committed, poets of the post-imperial age who have committed their art to lend intellectual authority to the political struggle of the forces of resistance against hegemonic orders to effect socio- political change and to create an exploitation-free world order. The two poets have projected their Marxist futuristic vision and political ideals in the wake of bourgeois hegemony in their respective postcolonial societies. These responses are deeply embedded in the specific philosophical, cultural, religious and literary traditions of their societies. The comparative study of Marxist utopia and political idealism in the poetry of Neruda and Faiz examines similarities of counter-hegemonic content and form – a logical outcome of shared political and historical conditions of their societies and specificities arising out of the influence of particular frames of reference in which the works of the two poets are produced. The theoretical framework of the study is Marxist literary theory which affirms political and neo-historicist readings of literature. I have also benefitted from certain aspects of postcolonial theory since it complements Marxist perspective on imperialism, nationalism, history and culture and ascribes to the politics of resistance. Research questions are based upon the basic tenets of literary Marxism which also evaluate the significance of Neruda and Faiz’s poetry in this age of corporate globalisation. Keeping in view the vast oeuvre of the two poets and the limitations of research in terms of time and space, I have delimited my study to the textual analysis of Neruda’s celebrated political work Canto General (General Song) translated into English by Jack Schmitt and the thematically and formally significant poems of Faiz translated into English by Victor Kiernan in Poems by Faiz and Daud Kamal and Khalid Hasan’s O City of Lights. The comparative study endorses the thesis statement highlighting ideological and formal similarities and specificities as the ideological commitments of the two poets are contextualised in their cultural backgrounds. v DECLARATION I, Mazhar Hayat Son of Bahadar Khan Registration No.40-FLL/PHDENG/F09 Discipline English, PhD scholar at International Islamic University, Islamabad do hereby declare that the thesis “Marxist Utopia and Political Idealism in the Poetry of Pablo Neruda and Faiz Ahmad Faiz: A Comparative Study” submitted by me in partial fulfilment of PhD Degree, is my original work, and has not been submitted or published earlier.

    www.TLHjournal.com Literary Herald ISSN: 2454-3365 An International Refereed/Peer-reviewed English e-Journal Impact Factor: 6.292 (SJIF) Intersection of Poetry and Politics: A Comparative Study Between the Life and Poetry of Faiz Ahmed Faiz and Pablo Neruda Suhail Mohammed Student, MA (English) Final Year Aligarh Muslim University, Aligarh. Abstract Faiz Ahmed Faiz (1911-1984) was a famous revolutionary Pakistani poet who wrote chiefly in Urdu and Punjabi. He is known all over the world for his romantic as well as hard hitting poems and nazms. His “poetry with purpose” is sung and read even today to shatter the chains of oppression and hegemony. Pablo Neruda (1904-1973), on the other hand was a well-known Chilean poet and writer. Neruda wrote on a variety of subjects since his tender age and like Faiz, his poems are too tools of intellectual resistance. His poems have too transcended geographical boundaries in equal pace like that of Faiz. Both Faiz and Neruda were friends and had a good rapport. Their poems have been praised not only in their homelands but across territories and won global acceptance. The paper attempts to bring out the commonality between the life and poetry of Faiz and Neruda. The paper also attempts to analyse how their poems were anti- colonialist and anti-fascism. Keywords: revolutionary, oppression, hegemony, anti-colonialist, intellectual resistance Faiz Ahmed Faiz and Pablo Neruda were contemporary poets and friends whose poems have ever been tools of intellectual resistance. Their works show major similarities with both being anti-colonialist and anti-imperialist and they both denounced oppressions not only in their homelands but all across the globe in any form.

Darren Atkinson Introduction: why examine the Left Radical of Afghanistan? 1 For many analysts of Afghanistan, the importance of leftist political ideology came to an end with the reformulation of the People’s Democratic Party of Afghanistan (PDPA) [Hezb- e Demokratic-e Khalq-e Afghanistan], the ostensibly communist party of government, as the Homeland Party of Afghanistan [Hezb-e-Watan-e Afghanistan] in 1987.1 This event, along with removal of Soviet troops in 1989, the ouster of President Najibullah’s in 1992, and his eventual execution in 1996, has meant that Afghanistan’s political development has tended to be analysed in relation to the success and failures of the Mujahedeen, the rise, fall and rise of the Taleban and the implications of US and NATO intervention and occupation.

He was a poet, critic, researcher, Journalist and translator of Pashto literature at a time. Apart from this he was a practical politician and a freedom fighter. Kakaji Sanobar played a vital role in the reawakening of the pashtoons as well as the other minorities against the British imperialism and the cruel and unjust policies of the Britishers in the sub continent.
