No documentation has been sited to confirm his date of birth or death, but it is generally believed to be c.1870’s to 1940’s. Peara Saheb accepted service under H.H. Maharaja Bahadur Sir Jotendro Mohan Tagore K.C.S.I (Order of the Star) 1831-1908 at Calcutta. He was also one of the influential art patrons of the day. From the Personal Staff of H.H. Maharajah Prodycat Coomar Tagore (1873-1942), the Maharaj’s adopted son and heir. Peara Saheb is known to have belonged to the family of late Nawab Wajid Ali Shah, the ex-king of Oudh who was a state prisoner at Fort William in Calcutta, built during the early years of the Bengal Presidency of British India. Wajid Ali Shah was exiled from Lucknow to Calcutta and reaching Calcutta on the 12th May 1856 settled at Garden Reach, Matiaburz, to the south of Calcutta. He returned to Garden Reach following his internment and renamed the area as Matia Burj. In 1864 he built the Sibtainabad Imambara. Peara Saheb had his permanent residence at Garden Reach. His postal address being Garden Reach, Matiaburz, Calcutta. Peara Saheb’s early training in music was from his father, a musician at the court of Wajid Ali Shah and mastered the lighter forms of Hindustani classical music, gazal, thumri and dadra and sang with a high pitched voice. Peara Saheb was one of the most popular male vocalists of his time and a prolific gramophone recording artist, recording on several record labels from 1905 to the mid 1930’s. WAJID ALI SHAH – Last King of Awadh (Oudh State) Wajid Ali Shah – King of Oudh: Born 1822, died at Matia Burj, Calcutta, 21 September 1887. His father was Amjad Ali Shah the fourth King of Oudh and his mother, Taj Ara Begum. Wajid Ali Shah was the second son of Amjad Ali Shah (Ruled 1842-1847) and succeeded his father in 1847 and ruled as Nawab of Awadh (Oudh State) the princely state in the region of Northern India until he was deposed by the annexation of Awadh on the 7th February 1856. A large number of composers thrived under the lavish patronage of the Nawab rulers. Wajid Ali Shah was not only a munificent patron of music, dance, drama, and poetry, but was himself a gifted composer. He had received vocal training under great Ustads like Basit Khan, Pyar Khan (d.1915), and Jafar Khan. He is widely credited with the revival of Kathak as a major form of classical Indian dance.

  • Proclamation to the People of Oude on Its Annexation. February 1856
    404 Indian Uprising/Sepoy Mutiny source: These illustrated biographies of the Indian rebels are from P. N. Chopra, ed., The Who’s Who of Indian Martyrs, 3 vols. (New Delhi: Ministry of Education and Youth Services, Govern- ment of India, 1969–1973). Proclamation to the People of Oude on its Annexation. February 1856 [This document contains the East India Company’s rationalization for its annexation of the Bengal region. The Company is depicted as a rescuing party whose gentle and superior government will ensure happiness and pro- tect the Indian people from unjust and exorbitant indigenous practices. The document presents the Company as a humanizing enterprise whose primary concern is civilizing India; the East India Company’s trading interests and mercantile mission are not referred to in the announcement.] By a treaty concluded in the year 1801, the Honourable East India Company engaged to protect the Sovereign of Oude against every foreign and domestic enemy, while the Sovereign of Oude, upon his part, bound himself to estab- lish ‘‘such a system of administration, to be carried into e√ect by his own o≈cers, as should be conducive to the prosperity of his subjects, and calcu- lated to secure the lives and property of the inhabitants.’’ The obligations which the treaty imposed upon the Honourable East India Company have been observed by it for more than half a century, faithfully, constantly, and completely. In all that time, though the British Government has itself been engaged in frequent wars, no foreign foe has ever set his foot on the soil of Oude; no rebellion has ever threatened the stability of its throne; British troops have been stationed in close promixity to the king’s person, and their aid has never been withheld whenever his power was wrongfully defied.

  • Garden Reach: the Forgotten Kingdom of Nawab Wajid Ali Shah
    http://double-dolphin.blogspot.com.es/2017/03/garden-reach-metiabruz-nawab-wajid-ali-shah- calcutta-kolkata.html The Concrete Paparazzi Sunday 19 March 2017 Garden Reach: The Forgotten Kingdom of Nawab Wajid Ali Shah My research into Wajid Ali Shah, the last Nawab of the Kingdom of Oudh (Awadh) started as a simple question – where was he buried? I knew that he had come to Calcutta once the East India Company had dethroned him. But if he had come to Calcutta, would he have died in Calcutta and if he had died in Calcutta, wouldn’t he have been buried in Calcutta? Google threw up a name – Sibtainabad Imambara. But where was this? Further curiosity would lead me to this post on the Astounding Bengal blog. There were scattered newspaper articles on the Nawab as well, but there seemed to be no one place where I could get the complete information. That is when I knew that I would have to do this myself, and as a friend and collaborator, I found Shaikh Sohail, who has the twin advantages of being a resident of the area where the Nawab once stayed and being on good terms with his descendants. More than 100 years after he died, are there any vestiges of Nawab Wajid Ali Shah that still remain? JAB CHHOR CHALEY LUCKNOW NAGRI It is important to begin by addressing a common misconception. In 1799, when Tipu Sultan was killed when the British stormed Srirangapatnam, the East India Company exiled his family to Calcutta to prevent them from stirring up any more trouble in the South.

  • The Beauties of Lucknow: an Urdu Photographic Album
    Journal of Journal of urdu studies 1 (2020) 141-176 URDU STUDIES brill.com/urds The Beauties of Lucknow: An Urdu Photographic Album Kathryn Hansen Professor Emeritus, Department of Asian Studies, University of Texas at Austin, Austin, TX, USA [email protected] Abstract ʿAbbās ʿAlī of Lucknow published several volumes of photographs which were unique in being accompanied by text in English and Urdu. The Beauties of Lucknow (1874), an album of female performers and costumed actors from the Indar Sabhā, is attributed to him. Based on examination of the rare book in five archival locations, this article accounts for the variations among them. It distinguishes between the photographer’s authorial intentions and the agency of artisans, collectors, and others who altered the artifact at various stages. Comparison of the textual apparatus of the English and Urdu editions reveals the author’s mode of address to different audiences. The Urdu intro- duction, saturated with poetic tropes, provides insight into ways of viewing photo- graphs as formulated among the local cognoscenti. The article proposes that ʿAbbās ʿAlī’s book was meant as a private gift, as well as a publication for wider circulation. Keywords History of photography – ʿAbbās ʿAlī – Lucknow – female performers – Urdu theatre and drama 1 Introduction In 2014, a set of images from The Beauties of Lucknow, an Indian photographic album published in 1874, appeared online in Tasveer Journal from Bangalore. These photographs revived interest in early portraits of courtesans from the subcontinent, a topic of perennial fascination.

  • 1 the Discourse of Colonial Enterprise and Its Representation of the Other Through the Expanded Cultural Critique
    Notes 1 The discourse of colonial enterprise and its representation of the other through the expanded cultural critique 1. I use the term “enterprise” in a delimited manner to specifically denote the colonial enterprise of capitalism and corporate enterprise of multi-nationals under global capitalism. I also examine the subversion of the colonialist capitalist enterprise through the deployment of indigenous enterprise in Chapter 4. It is not within the purview of my project to examine the history of the usage of the term “enterprise” in its medieval and military context. 2. Syed Hussein Alatas in a 1977 study documents and analyses the origins and function of what he calls the myth of the lazy native from the sixteenth to the twentieth century in Malaysia, Philippines, and Indonesia. See his The Myth of the Lazy Native (1977). I pay tribute to this excellent study; however, my own work differs from Alatas in the following respects. Alatas treats colonialist labour practices as an ideology or a patently false “myth” not as discourse. Unlike Alatas my own study of labour practices is oriented towards discourse analysis. This difference in tools leads to a more fundamental theoretical divergence: Alatas foregrounds the myth of the lazy native without investigating the binary half of the industrious European that sustains the former. Contrarily I argue that the colonized native’s unproductive work and play within the expanded cultural critique cannot be discussed without taking into account the normative labour and leisure practices in post-Enlightenment enterprise. 3. My choice of the Defoe text, as well as my locating the colonial capitalist discourses of labour in the English Enlightenment is influenced by Marx’s brief but intriguing interpretation of Defoe’s Crusoe.

Based on novels and short stories in English, Hindi-Urdu and Bengali that were published before 1947, these films examine the legacy of the Raj from the vantage point of an independent India. Kim (1950), NR Directed by Victor Saville Friday, May 4, 5:30–7:25 p.m. During the British Raj, the orphan (Dean Stockwell) of a British soldier poses as a Hindu and is torn between his loyalty to a Buddhist mystic (Errol Flynn) and aiding the English secret service. The film is based on the novel Kim by Rudyard Kipling, first published in book form in 1901. Shatranj Ke Khilari (The Chess Players) (1977), NR Directed by Satyajit Ray Friday, May 11, 5:30–7:40 p.m. In this movie set in 1856, shortly before the first Indian struggle for independence, Wajid Ali Shah is portrayed as an indifferent ruler who composes poems and listens to music, while British general James Outram (Sir Richard Attenborough) arrives on a secret mission to clear the way for the British. Meanwhile, two noblemen obsessively play endless games of chess, ignoring the situation that unfolds around them.

  • Kathak's Marginalized Courtesan Tradition the I
    Varma 1 Tulika Varma English 184 Prof. Mott 3/22/18 Sensuality and Syncretism: Kathak’s Marginalized Courtesan Tradition The Indian classical dance form known today as Kathak is practiced widely across the subcontinent and the South Asian diaspora. A vibrant, entertaining dance, it has taken many shapes and forms across different stages and spaces. This paper is primarily interested in historicizing the form and exploring how the process was closely managed by Indian nationalism and British Anglicism. I draw on Margaret Walker’s historicization of Kathak in her book India’s Kathak Dance in Historical Perspective and Pallabi Chakravorty’s invaluable Marxist anthropological study of Kathak in Bells of Change: Kathak Dance, Women and Modernity in India to investigate the different genealogies of the form and which histories were preserved during the nationalist reconstruction of “Indian culture” in the 19th century. I explore Kathak’s rich syncretic, philosophical history – specifically the tawaif (courtesan) tradition and its subsequent marginalization, and show how despite concerted efforts to purge this tradition from the “official” history of Kathak, it lingers in the choreographic vocabulary of contemporary practitioners. I then outline the different relationships that these practitioners have with the tawaif tradition, and map how theories and experiences of sensuality and embodiment have shifted through the rise of Indian nationalism as well as contemporary efforts to “reclaim” or excavate the tawaif tradition. However, before elaborating more on this project, it is important to give a brief outline of Kathak as it is known and performed today – the cadences of the movements and gestures and Varma 2 the general repertoire.

  • Stratification and Role of the Elite Muslim Women in the State of Awadh, 1742-1857
    Athens Journal of History - Volume 7, Issue 4, October 2021 – Pages 269-294 Stratification and Role of the Elite Muslim Women in the State of Awadh, 1742-1857 By Naumana Kiran This paper focuses on stratification and role of the elite Muslim women in the State of Awadh during the second-half of the eighteenth, and first-half of nineteenth century India. It evaluates the categorization of women associated with the court and the division of political and domestic power among them. It also seeks their economic resources and their contribution in fields of art and architecture. The study finds that the first category of royal women of Awadh, including queen mothers and chief wives, enjoyed a powerful position in the state-matters unlike many other states of the time in India. Besides a high cadre of royal ladies, three more cadres of royal women existed in Awadh’s court with multiple ratios of power and economic resources. Elite women’s input and backing to various genres of art, language and culture resulted in growth of Urdu poetry, prose, drama and music in addition to religious architecture. The paper has been produced on the basis of primary and secondary sources. It includes the historical accounts, written by contemporary historians as well as cultural writings, produced by poets and literary figures of the time, besides letters and other writings of the rulers of Awadh. The writings produced by the British travelers, used in this paper, have further provided an insightful picture and a distinctive perspective. Introduction The study of Muslim women of Awadh, like women of all other areas of India during the 18th and 19th centuries, is a marginalized theme of study in historiography of India.

  • Adaptation of Premchand's “Shatranj Ke Khilari” Into Film
    ASIATIC, VOLUME 8, NUMBER 2, DECEMBER 2014 Translation as Allegory: Adaptation of Premchand’s “Shatranj Ke Khilari” into Film Omendra Kumar Singh1 Govt. P.G. College, Dausa, Rajasthan, India Abstract Roman Jakobson‟s idea that adaptation is a kind of translation has been further expanded by functionalist theorists who claim that translation necessarily involves interpretation. Premised on this view, the present paper argues that the adaptation of Premchand‟s short story “Shatranj ke Khilari” into film of that name by Satyajit Ray is an allegorical interpretation. The idea of allegorical interpretation is based on that ultimate four-fold schema of interpretation which Dante suggests to his friend, Can Grande della Scala, for interpretation of his poem Divine Comedy. This interpretive scheme is suitable for interpreting contemporary reality with a little modification. As Walter Benjamin believes that a translation issues from the original – not so much from its life as from its after-life – it is argued here that in Satyajit Ray‟s adaptation Premchand‟s short story undergoes a living renewal and becomes a purposeful manifestation of its essence. The film not only depicts the social and political condition of Awadh during the reign of Wajid Ali Shah but also opens space for engaging with the contemporary political reality of India in 1977. Keywords Translation, adaptation, interpretation, allegory, film, mise-en-scene Translation at its broadest is understood as transference of meaning between different natural languages. However, functionalists expanded the concept of translation to include interpretation as its necessary form which postulates the production of a functionalist target text maintaining relationship with a given source text.

  • Nawab Wajid Ali Shah and "Babul Moraa" 
    From: Rajan P. Parrikar ([email protected]) Subject: Nawab Wajid Ali Shah and "Babul Moraa" Newsgroups: rec.music.indian.classical View: Complete Thread (7 articles) | Original Format Date: 1998/10/16 Namashkar. "BAbul morA, naihar chchooTo jAy" - a permanent fixture in the national consciousness thanks to K.L. Saigal, is known to every Indian to whom it is synonymous with Raga Bhairavi. The origins of this composition and its composer - the epicure Wajid Ali Shah - are not as well known. The following sketch by Susheela Mishra throws light on the unexpected turn of events that inspired the composition. Warm regards, r ************************************************** From: Great Masters of Hindustani Music by Susheela Mishra Hem Publishers, 1981 Nawab Wajid Ali Shah by Susheela Mishra Some years ago I saw the film 'Aavishkar' and was impressed by the subtle and soothing manner in which the famous Lucknow Thumri "Babul mora Naihar chchooto jaay" in Bhairavi had been used as a haunting and recurring background refrain throughout this good film. After the picture was over and as we were returning home, I asked some of my Lucknow friends if they knew who was the composer of this very popular song. I was disappointed when they confessed that none of them knew, although they had heard this Thumri many times and liked it very much. If even Lucknowwallas are not aware of this song, one cannot expect others from other parts of the country to know anything about it. This Bhairavi Thumri has been one of the favourites of famous light classical and classical musicians from Moizuddin, Malkajan, Gauharjan, and Ustad Faiyaz Khan, to Siddheswari Devi, Begum Akhtar and Girja Devi of more recent times.
