Studying Afghan women’s writing especially poetry is very significant because it is considered to be used as a means of communicating important ideas, passing on stories and heritage, and making statements. The purpose of this dissertation is to comparatively study the poetic features of Rabia Balkhi and Nadia Anjuman’s poetry – two Afghan poetesses. The works of these poetesses had been studied separately before, but no attempt has been made to comparatively analyze their poetry particularly in the light of Feminism and Romanticism theories. This paper studies the poetic feature of the selected poems of Rabia Balkhi and Nadia Anjuman from the perspective of Feminism and Romanticism theories. The study focuses on Feminism and Romanticism in different periods of poetry development in Afghanistan. It also comparatively analyzes the feminist and romantic elements in the selected poems of Rabia Balkhi and Nadia Anjuman based on poetic diction, form and style of. Moreover, it explores the social and psychological perspectives of the poetesses about women and womanhood in different eras in Afghanistan. The findings of the paper showed that Rabia Balkhi and Nadia Anjuman’s poetry poems were different in form, style and diction while similar in themes, content, and way of expressing their true feelings and emotions.

It also represents the literary works, poetic themes, styles, and visions of the poets in general. It is through poetry that one can have full access to understand the contemporary literature. It is the poets' poems and works which are the basic sources to know about the literature of an age. Among the artistic and literary forms, poetry holds a greater place in the consciousness of the people of Afghanistan. Persian Poetry has different forms and styles and it differs from its richly diverse populationThe important credit would be given to the classical poets such as Mawlana Jallaudin Rumi and Saadi Shirazi who are the greatest poets of all ages in the history of Afghanistan. However, there are other female poets who have their great influences in the mind of the people from time to time. Afghanistan has it rich history in the field of poetry with regards to the famous poetesses such as Rabia Balkhi and other female poets after her. One of the important facts about women's writing in Afghanistan is to study women’s writing in order understand them. It is because of the monumental challenges that remain for those who choose to compose and publish certain work and for those whose works have been influenced with personal struggle of socio-political issues. A study of the poets and their poetry of a particular region, Afghanistan, is a clear vital step toward understanding the poetry of Afghanistan as a whole. As Marie states in her book “LOUD POEMS LIKE GUNS” regarding the history of female poetess as:"The history of female poets in the land Q a r i z a d a 2 now known as Afghanistan is a rich one, with famous examples going as far back given as Rabia Balkhi of the 10th century." (1) Among the artistic and literary forms, poetry holds a greater place in the consciousness of Afghans. Studying Afghan women’s writing is very significant because it is considered to be used as a means of communicating important ideas, passing on stories and heritage, and making statements. The purpose of this dissertation is to comparatively study the poetic features of Rabia Balkhi and Nadia Anjuman’s poetry – two Afghan poetesses. The works of these poetesses had been studied separately before, but no attempt has been made to comparatively analyze their poetry particularly in the light of Feminism and Romanticism theories. This paper studies the poetic feature of the selected poems of Rabia Balkhi and Nadia Anjuman from the perspective of Feminism and Romanticism theories. The study focuses on Feminism and Romanticism in different periods of poetry development in Afghanistan. It also comparatively analyzes the feminist and romantic elements in the selected poems of Rabia Balkhi and Nadia Anjuman based on poetic diction, form and style of. Moreover, it explores the social and psychological perspectives of the poetesses about women and womanhood in different eras in Afghanistan. The findings of the paper showed that Rabia Balkhi and Nadia Anjuman’s poems were different in form, style and diction while similar in themes, content, and way of expressing their true feelings and emotions. Due to the presence of a mutual relationship between the literature and social conditions, two factors can be involved in the emergence and direction of poetry. The poetic flow factors can be seen either out of the text or intertextual. These factors cannot be ignored by a scholar or an artist in the field of literature.

  • The Tragic Life of Rabia Balkhi

    The Tragic Life of Rabia Balkhi

    The Tragic Life of Rabia Balkhi Abdul Hai Habibi The ancient city of Balkh, known as the mother of cities, is a myriad of destroyed historical sites in northern Afghanistan. Among the ruins is the shrine of Rabia Balkhi, the famous poetess who lived a thousand years ago. The life of this young poetess is shrouded in mystery. She was the daughter of Ka'b, the ruler of Sajistan and Turan. She led an isolated life and from childhood roamed in the vineyards of the countryside and wrote inspiring poetry. The people of Balkh were so overwhelmed with her literary prowess they called her a bird with golden wings. She had an intimate relationship with natural beauty and had a special admiration for the gardens of her native land. Sitting beside the swift flowing streams and brooks of the orchards and gardens she would lapse into a contemplative mood to write her poetry. One day while wandering in the gardens of Haris, her brother, who became the ruler after her father’s death, she met Baktash, a slave in the court of Haris. The slave presented her with a flower as a token of his friendship and love. She immediately left the garden fearing someone may see her. It was this incident which intensified her poetic career and led to her tragic demise. The pangs of love enveloped her life. From then on she lived in a dream world and spent day and night meditating about Baktash. Every word of her poetry was addressed to him. It was not long before the rumor of her romance reached her brother who stopped her from seeing Baktash.

Why hast thou made a lover of Leila of me? Thou hast made me a pillow of wild thorns, Made me roam day and night without a home. What dost Thou want from my imprisonment? Oh Lord of mine, listen to my plea!” The Lord replied, “Oh lost man, With Leila’s love I have your heart filled; The beauty of Leila that you see Is just another reflection of Me”. (from ‘Layla and Majnun’ in Islamic Mystical Poetry, p. 65) 2. “This text requires a single name, not two,” He answered them. “Majnun alone will do. If someone delves within a lover’s heart, He’ll find the loved one in its deepest part.” “But why,” they asked him, “from among the two It’s Layla who’s been cut away, not you?” “It’s wrong,” he said, “for her to be the cover That hides within itself this ardent lover. I am the veil for what should be internal. I am the outer shell; she is the kernel.” (from ‘Layla and Majnun’ in Nizami Ganjavi and His Poetry, p. 23 ) 3. As the pen began its first movement It produced first word and speech. When they raised the curtain of non-existence, The first manifestation was word and speech. Until the word gave voice to the heart, The soul did not submit its free body to clay.
