  • The Broken Spell: the Romance Genre in Late Mughal India
    The Broken Spell: The Romance Genre in Late Mughal India Pasha Mohamad Khan Submitted in partial fulfillment of the Requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2013 © 2013 Pasha Mohamad Khan All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT The Broken Spell: The Romance Genre in Late Mughal India Pasha Mohamad Khan This study is concerned with the Indian “romance” (qiṣṣah) genre, as it was understood from the seventeenth to the early twentieth century. Particularly during the Mughal era, oral and written romances represented an enchanted world populated by sorcerers, jinns, and other marvellous beings, underpinned by worldviews in which divine power was illimitable, and “occult” sciences were not treated dismissively. The promulgation of a British-derived rationalist-empiricist worldview among Indian élites led to the rise of the novel, accompanied by élite scorn for the romance as an unpalatably fantastic and frivolous genre. This view was developed by the great twentieth-century romance critics into a teleological account of the romance as a primitive and inadequate precursor of the novel, a genre with no social purpose but to amuse the ignorant and credulous. Using recent genre theory, this study examines the romance genre in Persian, Urdu, Punjabi, and Braj Bhasha. It locates the romance genre within a system of related and opposed genres, and considers the operation of multiple genres within texts marked as “romances,” via communal memory and intertextuality. The worldviews that underpinned romances, and the purposes that romances were meant to fulfill, are thereby inspected. Chapters are devoted to the opposition and interpenetration of the “fantastic” romance and “factual” historiography (tārīḳh), to romances’ function in client-patron relationships via panegyrics (madḥ), and to romances’ restagings of moral arguments rehearsed in ethical manuals (aḳhlāq).

  • Sorani Vocabulary
    Sorani Kurdish Vocabulary Circumflexed vowels follow uncircumflexed vowels in alphabetization. The furtive i is indicated by italicization, e.g. bâwik ‘father’ but bâwkî ‘his father.’ Abbreviations: adj. = adjective; cond. = conditional; demon. = demonstrative; imprs. = impersonal (verb is always in the 3rd person singular); impt. = imperative; pl. = plural; pron. = pronoun; sing. = singular; subj. = subjunctive; pres. = present; v.i. = verb intransitive; v.p. = verb passive; v.t. = verb transitive (transitive implies that the past tense is formed on the ergative model, not that the verb necessarily takes a direct object either in Kurdish or in English). Generally, compound verbs are listed under the nonverbal element of the com- pound; compounds with frequently-occurring elements like dâ-, hał-, and pe- are listed under the verb. * :habitual verbal prefix (Sulaymani the city; ~ i engaged in, practicing ﺋــــــﻪ -a dialect); see da- ahl i îmân religious, ahl i kher chari- directional suffix on verbs: chûmà table, ahl i kayf hedonistic; ~ la…dâ ـﻪ à- shâr I went to town worthy of: fiłân la rafâqat’dâ zor ahl -a So-and-So is quite worthy of friend ﺋــــﻪدﻩﰉ literature, culture; ~î ﺋــــﻪدﻩب adab literature; ~par- ship ﺋـﻪدﻩﺑـﻴـﺎت literary; ~iyât Ahmad, masc. proper ﺋــــــﻪﲪــــــﻪد patron of literature; be~ Aḥmad ﺋـﻪدﻩﺑـﭙـﻪروﻩر war impo- name /ﺋــــﻪدﻩﰉ impolite; be~î /ﺋــــﻪدﻩب liberals ﺋﻪﺣﺮار liteness aḥrâr pharmacy ﺋﻪﺟﺰاﺎﻧﻪ litérateur, literary person, ajzâkhâna ﺋـــــﻪدﯾـــــﺐ adîb sing. definite suffix: pyâwaká ـﻪﮐـــــﻪ man of letters -aká gentleman, anyone who the man ﺋــﻪﻓــﻪﻧــﺪی afandî pl. definite suffix: pyâwakân ـﻪﰷن wears western clothes -akân Afrasiab, legendary the men ﺋـﻪﻓـﺮاﺳـ8ـﻴـﺎب Afrâsiyâb ﺋــﻪLــﻼﰵ morals, ethics; ~î ﺋــﻪLــﻼق king of Turan akhlâq Africa moral, ethical ﺋﻪﻓﺮﯾﻘ;ﺎ Afrîqyâ ,ﺋﻪﻓﺮﯾﻘﺎ Afrîqâ German ﺋﻪﻪﻣﺎﱏ officer Ałamânî ﺋﻪﻓﺴﻪر afsar now ﺋﻪﻵن al’ân ﺋــﻪﻓــﺴــﺎﻧــﻪﰃ tale, legend; ~î ﺋــﻪﻓــﺴــﺎﻧــﻪ afsâna electronic ﺋﻪﻟﻴﮑﱰۆﱏ legendary alîktronî (.this (demon.

GLOBALIZING PAKISTANI IDENTITY ACROSS THE BORDER: THE POLITICS OF CROSSOVER STARDOM IN THE HINDI FILM INDUSTRY INTRODUCTION In 2010, Pakistani musician and actor Ali Zafar noted how “films and music are one of the greatest tools of bringing in peace and harmony between India and Pakistan. As both countries share a common passion – films and music can bridge the difference between the two.”1 In a more recent interview from May 2016, Zafar reflects on the unprecedented success of his career in India, celebrating his work in cinema as groundbreaking and forecasting a bright future for Indo-Pak collaborations in entertainment and culture.2 His optimism is signaled by a wish to reach an even larger global fan base, as he mentions his dream of working in Hollywood and joining other Indian émigré stars like Priyanka Chopra.

  • Playing by New Rules
    Playing by new rules India's Media & Entertainment sector reboots in 2020 March 2021 Images credit: Ramji Ravi Conceptual Pictures Worldwide Pvt Ltd./ Adobebstock For stock images & footage license : www.imagefootage.com We played by new rules. And we played to win. 2020 was a challenging year for India. And for sports as well. We all learnt to live differently: wearing a mask, maintaining a distance of six feet, sanitising frequently, boosting our immunity. Playing a team sport, we lived in secure bio-bubbles and lived through quarantines. The silence in the stadiums was the worst thing one could hear. When the going got tough in Australia, it was important to stay positive and continue to play our brand of cricket and let each individual express themselves. Situations were tough but heroes emerged when the time demanded. We played to win and did not let the fear of losing overpower us. Ajinkya Rahane The Indian Media & Entertainment industry kept providing news, information and entertainment content to Indians when they most needed it without letting fear affect them. The virus could not take away the record viewership of IPL Season 13 nor the growing popularity of esports. It could not stop our sportspersons from making a mark in tennis, hockey, wrestling, boxing, and several other sports. They all reminded us that it is important to play the game in the right spirit without worrying about the consequences. I'm happy that we got an opportunity to play during these tough times and bring happiness to millions of viewers watching the sport.

  • Routledge Handbook of Contemporary India
    ROUTLEDGE HANDBOOK OF CONTEMPORARY INDIA India is the second largest country in the world with regard to population, the world’s largest democracy and by far the largest country in South Asia, and one of the most diverse and pluralistic nations in the world in terms of official languages, cultures, religions and social identities. Indians have for centuries exchanged ideas with other cultures globally and some traditions have been transformed in those transnational and transcultural encounters and become successful innovations with an extraordinary global popularity. India is an emerging global power in terms of economy, but in spite of India’s impressive economic growth over the last decades, some of the most serious problems of Indian society such as poverty, repression of women, inequality both in terms of living conditions and of opportunities such as access to education, employment, and the economic resources of the state persist and do not seem to go away. Now available in paperback, this Handbook contains chapters by the field’s foremost scholars dealing with fundamental issues in India’s current cultural and social transformation and concentrates on India as it emerged after the economic reforms and the new economic policy of the 1980s and 1990s and as it develops in the twenty-first century. Following an introduction by the editor, the book is divided into five parts: • Part I: Foundation • Part II: India and the world • Part III: Society, class, caste and gender • Part IV: Religion and diversity • Part V: Cultural change and innovations. Exploring the cultural changes and innovations relating a number of contexts in contemporary India, this Handbook is essential reading for students and scholars interested in Indian and South Asian culture, politics and society.
