He wrote more than seventy titles. In 1986 he was awarded the Bangla Academy Literary Award for his contribution to Bengali linguistics. In 2012, the Bangladeshi government posthumously awarded him to Ekusha Padak. Azad's early life and education was born as Humayun Kabir on 28 April 1947 in the village of Rahrhihal in Bikrampur, whose village is now located under the Srinagar district of Munshiganj district. The famous scientist Jagadish Chandra Bose was born in the same village. He passed the secondary exam at the Sir Jagadish Institute chandra Basu in 1962 and the highest secondary exam at Dhaka College in 1964. He received a bachelor's and master's degree in Bengali language and literature from the University of Dhaka in 1967 and 1968, respectively. In 1976, he received his PhD in linguistics, presenting his dissertation entitled Promominalization in Bangle at the University of Edinburgh. On 28 September 1988, a judge in the Narayanganganj district changed his surname from Kabir to Azad. Azaz's career began in 1969, joining Chittagong College. On 11 February 1970, he enrolled at Chittagong University as a lecturer and in 1972 at Jahanjgarnagar University. (quote necessary) on 1 November 1978, he was appointed adjunct professor at the University of Bengal in Dhaka, and in 1986 was promoted to professorship. Literary works This section needs to be expanded. You can help by adding to it. (October 2019) Azaz's first published book was about a collection of poems written by himself, a book called Aloukik Istimar (lit. 'Supernatural Steamboat'), it was published in 1973, in which he went to Scotland to study a doctorate in linguistics from the University of Edinburgh. He wrote a story in 1979 called Onoboroto Tusharpat (lighted. heavy snow, which was inspired by his newly overseas life with his Dhaka University class partner Latifah Kohinoor, he took Latif of Scotland after marriage in 1975, the UK one day among Snow Azad was driving a car with his wife, which became the main plot of the story; so many years later Azad included included story in his 1996 book Jadukorer Mrityu (Lit. Death of a Magician) which the book is a collection of his own written five stories. In the late 1980s, he began writing a newspaper column on contemporary social and political issues. His comments continued throughout the 1990s and were later published as books as they grew in numbers. His writings of the 1990s and early 2000s he established himself as a writer. In 1992, Azad published the first comprehensive feminist book in Bengali called Naree ( English: Woman). Nari received both positive and negative reviews as a treatise, and was considered the first full-fledged feminist book since Bangladesh's independence. In this work, Azad mentioned the pro-female contributions of two well-known Bengali social and political reformers: Raja Rammohan Roy and Ishwar Chandra Vidyasagara, who criticized Rabindranath Tagore, a famous Bengali poet and Nobel laureate, and Bankim Chandra Chatterjee, a famous 19th-century Bengali writer. The work, criticizing society's patriarchal and chauvinistic attitude towards women, provoked a backlash from many Bangladeshi readers. The Government of Bangladesh banned the book in 1995. The ban was eventually overturned in 2000, following a legal battle that Azad won in the country's High Court. In 1994, he published his first novel, which was called Chhappanno Hazar Borgomile (lit. Fifty-six thousand square miles, Bangladesh squared). The novel was about military rule in Bangladesh. He received special recognition for his second novel Sab Kichu Bhene Pare (1995), which was based on the interpersonal relationships of Bangladeshi society. He wrote Ekti Huner Shopno (lit. Dream of Murder, an unrequited love-based novel where the male protagonist lives in the Muslim hall of Salimullah University of Dhaka, where Azad lived during his student life, was Azaz's last novel, published in 2004, in which he died. Attempted murder took place on 27 February 2004, near the campus of the University of Dhaka during the annual Bangla Academy book fair, and two attackers armed with machetes repeatedly broke Azad's jaw, lower neck and hands.

IV 1 December 2012 The Criterion www.the-criterion.com An International Journal in English ISSN 0976-8165 Rokeya’s Reverse Thoughts: Sketch of Male Characters in Sultana’s Dream Md. Mohoshin Reza Assistant Professor, Department of English Bangladesh University of Business and Technology (BUBT) Rupnagar, Mirpur 2, Dhaka, Bangladesh Abstract: Characters of the male folk in Rokeya’s Sultana’s Dream impart images of men with no human characteristics and tendencies. They only physically resemble as humans but are indeed idle, unpunctual, arrogant, selfish, dominating and fanatic to customs and convention and most of all, anti woman in attitude. They are, egocentric, dominating, and scornful to women. But things turn reverse and the entire male folk come to be terribly avenged in the story of Sultana’s Dream. Finally, they come to wear the shackles of Purdah and remain confined to Murdana (Seclusion) as the same way as they did to women. 1 Introduction Rokeya (1887-1947 A.D) is considered to be the visionary emancipator of women in Bengal (presently Bangladesh). The core inspiration of her literary works rests in her realization of the needs of taking measures against the suppression, oppression and domination of men over the women race for centuries in Bengal (Alam, 1992: 55). Her mission of sowing the seeds of self strength in the mind of Bengal’s women has always been underlying in her literary works. Sultana’s Dream is one of her distinguished literary pieces in English.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 ABSTRACT This thesis is a contribution to a deeper understanding of selected Bengali grammatical structures as far as their syntactic and semantic properties are concerned. It questions traditional interpretations and takes a practical approach in the detailed investigation of actual language use. My methodology is based on the belief that clarity and inquisitiveness should take precedence over alliance to particular grammar theories and that there is still much to discover about the way the Bengali language works. Chapter 1 This chapter on non-finite verb forms discusses the occurrences and functions of Bengali non-finite verb forms and concentrates particularly on the overlap of infinitives and verbal nouns, the distinguishing features between infinitives and present participles, the semantic properties of verbal adjectives and the syntactic restrictions of perfective participles.

  • Chalantika : Strategies of Compilation Md
    iex›`ª wek¦we`¨vjq cwÎKv \ msL¨v : 2 \ kir 1427 Chalantika : Strategies of Compilation Md. Mainul Islam* [Abstract : Chalantika (1930) Dictionary was published at a time when many Bangla dictionaries, large and small, were readily available. Despite having such a large number of dictionaries, Rajshekhar Basu realized the lack of a handy and at a time effective dictionary. So he decided to compile such a dictionary which will help much the readers who faces trouble reading modern literature. To meet the objectives Rajshekhar Basu followed some special strategies in the Compilation of Chalantika.This paper is concerned almost exclusively with the process and techniques of compilation applied in Chalantika] Key words : Lexicography, Compilation, Entry, Orthography, Synonym, Appendix. The effects of the Renaissance in the nineteenth century that were observed on education, social development, study of native culture etc. in British India became much clearer in the next century. Along with other sectors, many positive changes and developments were noticed in the study of language and literature. Study of Bangla Lexicography moved a step forward in twentieth century. The most important and mentionable achievement for this sector is that, native lexicographers took several initiatives to compile Bangla Dictionary and showed profound skill in their works. Names of some native lexicographers who have played a leading role in the twentieth century are : Jogesh Chandra Ray Vidyanidhi (Bangala Sabdakosh, 1903), Subal Chandra Mitra (Saral Bangala Abhidahan, 1906), Janendra Mohan Das (Bangala Bhashar Abhidhan, 1917), Rajshekhar Basu (Chalantika, 1930) Haricharan Bandopadhayaya (Bangiya Sabdakosh, 1932), Ashu Tosh Dev (1938), Kazi Abdul Wadud (Byabaharik Sabdakosh, 1953), Sailendra Biswas (Samsad Bangla Abhidhan, 1955), Muhammad Enamul Haque & Shibprosanna Lahiri (Byabaharik Bangla Abhidhan, 1974 & 1984), Ahmed Sharif (Sangkhipta Bangla Abhidhan, 1992), Abu Ishaque (Bangla Academy Samakalin Bangla Bhashar Abhidhan, 1993) et al.

  • Professor KAZI DIN MUHAMMAD (B
    http://www.bmri.org.uk Professor KAZI DIN MUHAMMAD (b. 1927- d. 2011) I have been aware of Kazi Din Muhammad since my youth. I first became familiar with his name as early as 1958 when I read a book of humorous anecdotes titled “Golak Chandrer Antmakatha” (Autobiography of Golak Chandra). As a young student, I found the book very funny and hilarious. The author of this book was born in the district Faridpur (circa 1906), but many years later when I asked Dr Kazi Din Muhammad whether he was the author of that book, he revealed that it was, in fact, written by another Kazi Din Muhammad who was also a prominent writer. Long time after I left Alokdihi Jan Bakhsh High English School in Dinajpur, I heard Kazi Din Muhammad’s name again, thanks to late Professor Mufakhkharul Islam, who taught Bengali Literature at Carmichael College, Rangpur. He told me that he was a classmate of Kazi Din Muhammad in the Department of Bangla at Dhaka University in the late 1940s. He remembered him affectionately, as both of them had studied for their Master’s Degree (MA) in Bengali Literature at Dhaka University in 1949. When the Examination results were published, Kazi Din Muhammad was awarded First Class First Degree and Mufakhkharul Islam had received a Second Class First. They remained good friends and held each other in high regard. In fact, both of them became very prominent scholars of Bengali Literature. When I had an opportunity to speak to Professor Kazi Din Muhammad in 2006, he confirmed that he was indeed a classmate of Mufakhkharul Islam at Dhaka University.

  • Democratic Practices in Bangladesh
    DEMOCRATIC PRACTICES IN BANGLADESH Khadga K.C. ABSTRACT Unless Bangladesh will find credible means to change the political culture within which it function, the viability of democracy will remain doubtful. Though it is about four decades of independence, the history of democracy isn’t worth to value its principles in its actual practice. Bangladesh’s democracy is distorted by the malpractices of political power by her politicians. The quality of democracy in the country has been jeopardized by the immature practices and attitudes by its political party, in or out of power. In fact, the democracy in Bangladesh is deprived within/by the practice of democracy itself. Consequently, democracy becomes fragile and cannot run smoothly with its own spirit. It is now widely accepted that Bangladesh is facing a crisis of governance which originates in a malfunctioning of the democratic process. The qualitative deterioration of governance leads to raise lack of concern in pursuing democratic values in practice. The people of this country cannot extract favors from democracy rather their interests become somewhat distorted. In this way the steady failure to get better governance could threaten the sustainability of practicing democracy in Bangladesh repeatedly. INTRODUCTION Democracy is a continuous political process, which can only be sustained and developed by giving due attention to certain issues which is conducive to people’s concern. Though Bangladesh has passed 39 years of its independence, it has failed to institute democracy as a political tradition. The political history of Bangladesh in the last half century divulges a country wedged in a pendulum swing between democracy and dictatorship, between hopelessness and optimism, and between mass lethargy and violent collective action.

  • Burqa and the Begum: Strategic Adoption of Islam in Rokeya's Later
    Indian Journal of Comparative Literature and Translation Studies ISSN: 2321-8274 Burqa and the Begum: Strategic Adoption of Islam in Rokeya’s Later Writings Durdana Matin Associate Professor, Department of English, University of Chittagong, Bangladesh Page | 35 Abstract: Evidence can be found in the life and works of Begum Rokeya, a major cultural figure in the Indian subcontinent, to support the popular notion that she pioneered and strongly advocated the importance of the advancement of female education in Bengal. She encountered certain issues in her time that would be recognized by feminists today as their rallying points too. They would also perceive in her response to those issues a clear feminist edge. However, one is likely to notice a marked change in her position from intransigence in her early life to pacifism later. Both conservatives and liberals lay claim to her as their champion though the idealistic and pacifist image of her carved by the conservatives has been established as her true representation and more successfully instilled in the popular psyche ever since her death. On the other hand, those who depict her as belligerent and unapologetic have not been able to make a strong case for this image as Rokeya did not stick to this polemical position for too long. Consequently, the popular version of Rokeya as a pious, modest and God-fearing person concerned with the deplorable condition of women in her community in colonial Bengal has stuck. However, even this interpretation of Rokeya has its limitations. This paper attempts to explore the true identity of Rokeya in the light of her life and works contrary to the one constructed by the prevailing popular discourse.

The dialogues are designed to address important policy issues and to seek constructive solutions to these problems. The Centre has already organised a series of such major dialogues at local, regional and national levels. These dialogues have brought together ministers, opposition frontbenchers, MPs, business leaders, NGOs, donors, professionals and other functional groups in civil society within a non- confrontational environment to promote focused discussions. The expectation of the CPD is to create a national policy consciousness where members of civil society will be made aware of critical policy issues affecting their lives and will come together in support of particular policy agendas which they feel are conducive to the well being of the country. The CPD has also organised a number of South Asian bilateral and regional dialogues as well as some international dialogues. In support of the dialogue process the Centre is engaged in research programmes which are both serviced by and are intended to serve as inputs for particular dialogues organised by the Centre throughout the year. Some of the major research programmes of CPD include The Independent Review of Bangladesh's Development (IRBD), Governance and Development, Population and Sustainable Development, Trade Policy Analysis and Multilateral Trading System, Corporate Responsibility, Governance, Regional Cooperation for Infrastructure Development and Leadership Programme for the Youth.

  • Killing for Blasphemy and the Ghost of Al Qaeda in Bangladesh Abstract
    1 Killing for Blasphemy and the Ghost of al Qaeda in Bangladesh Taj Hashmi Abstract While Islamist terror outfits like HUJI (B) and JMB resorted to indiscriminate killing of innocent civilians up to 2005/2006 to establish an alternative Islamic order, the vicious attack on Humayun Azad in early 2004 – purportedly by Islamists for his blasphemous anti- Islamic writings – signaled a new pattern in the realm of political assassination in Bangladesh. Afterwards assassins have killed five people for blasphemous writings against Islam. This paper sheds light on the problem of killing for blasphemy against Islam, with a view to drawing a line between ideologically motivated target killing of “blasphemers” by Muslim fanatics, and indiscriminate killing of total strangers by ideologically motivated Islamist terrorist groups. Although target killings or assassinations of “blasphemers” could be acts of terrorism, but there are compelling reasons not to assume that the ongoing killing for blasphemy in the country are acts of terrorism. In the backdrop of inadequate information, contradictory, over-simplified reports, and the dubious role of government agencies vis-à-vis the so-called Ansarullah Bangla Team (“al Qaeda affiliate”) attacks in Bangladesh, one believes there are lots of delusional cries of “Wolf” behind the curtain. Keywords: HUJI (B); JMB; Islamic/Islamist; Bangladesh; killing for blasphemy; Ansarullah Bangla Team; al Qaeda. Taj Hashmi is Professor in Austin Peay State University, USA.

  • Muslim Identity, Bengali Nationalism: an Analysis on Nationalism in Bangladesh
    E-ISSN 2281-4612 Academic Journal of Interdisciplinary Studies Vol 3 No 1 ISSN 2281-3993 MCSER Publishing, Rome-Italy March 2014 Muslim Identity, Bengali Nationalism: An Analysis on Nationalism in Bangladesh A. B. M. Nurul Absar Lecturer in Islamic History and Culture, Centre for University Requirement Courses International Islamic University Chittagong Email:[email protected], Cell no: 0088-01818736333 Doi:10.5901/ajis.2014.v3n1p439 Abstract When East Pakistan1 broke away from Pakistan to become the independent and sovereign nation of Bangladesh in 1971after nine month long war of independent against west Pakistan, many observers believed that South Asia was irrevocably on its route to a secular nationalism beyond religious 'tribalism'2 and 'two nation theory'3 (G.Allana (ed),1967, Pakistan Movement: Historic Documents,p-77 ) which purported the 1947 partition of British India and establishment of Pakistan on the basis of religious separate identity. As later events proved, they were sadly mistaken. The primacy of Islamic traditions and sentiments cast aside by the Bengalis in East Pakistan in 1971 to fight the Pakistani crackdown and later deliberately excised by the new Bangladesh government, subsequently returned as a resilient and widespread political phenomenon.
