Book Synopsis Ghalib by : Mirza Asadullah Khan Ghalib
Download or read book Ghalib written by Mirza Asadullah Khan Ghalib and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2017-03-28 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This selection of poetry and prose by Ghalib provides an accessible and wide-ranging introduction to the preeminent Urdu poet of the nineteenth century. Ghalib's poems, especially his ghazals, remain beloved throughout South Asia for their arresting intelligence and lively wit. His letters—informal, humorous, and deeply personal—reveal the vigor of his prose style and the warmth of his friendships. These careful translations allow readers with little or no knowledge of Urdu to appreciate the wide range of Ghalib's poetry, from his gift for extreme simplicity to his taste for unresolvable complexities of structure. Beginning with a critical introduction for nonspecialists and specialists alike, Frances Pritchett and Owen Cornwall present a selection of Ghalib's works, carefully annotating details of poetic form. Their translation maintains line-for-line accuracy and thereby preserves complex poetic devices that play upon the tension between the two lines of each verse. The book includes whole ghazals, selected individual verses from other ghazals, poems in other genres, and letters. The book also includes a glossary, the Urdu text of the original poetry, and an appendix containing Ghalib's comments on his own verses.

Download or read book Ghalib written by Gopi Chand Narang and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2017-10-03 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mirza Asadullah Khan (1797–1869), popularly, Ghalib, is the most influential poet of the Urdu language. He is noted for the ghazals he wrote during his lifetime, which have since been interpreted and sung by different people in myriad ways. Ghalib’s popularity has today extended beyond the Indian subcontinent to the Hindustani diaspora around the world. In this book, Gopi Chand Narang studies Ghalib’s poetics by tracing the archetypical roots of his creative consciousness and enigmatic thought in Buddhist dialectical philosophy, particularly in the concept of shunyata. He underscores the importance of the Mughal era’s Sabke Hindi poetry, especially through Bedil, whom Ghalib considered his mentor. The author also engages with Ghalib criticism that has flourished since his death and analyses the important works of the poet, including pieces from early Nuskhas and Divan-e Ghalib, strengthening this central argument. Much has been written about Ghalib’s life and his poetry. A marked departure from this dominant trend, Narang’s book looks at Ghalib from different angles and places him in the galaxy of the great Eastern poets, stretching far beyond the boundaries of India and the Urdu language.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mirza Asadu'llah Khan Ghalib was the brightest luminary of his time in the South Asian, Muslim literary community. A poet in Urdu and Persian, he was endowed with exquisite imagination, sparkling wit, and a charming presence. Ghalib was a brilliant conversationalist, skilled in the art of human relations. In the last twenty years of his life, the political conditions of northern India caused the death or dispersion of many of his best friends. He satisfied his gregarious urges by writing exquisite letters in Urdu, in a delightfully conversational style. By these means Ghalib kept in touch with his scattered friends. These letters were so novel in style that the first collection was published only a month after the poet's death. In this book, Daud Rahbar provides thoroughly annotated English versions of 170 Urdu letters. These letters exemplify the possibility of elevating human relations to an art form, and Rahbar's translation reproduces the delicate flavor of the original Urdu prose.

Book Synopsis The Smile on Sorrow's Lips by : Moosa Raza
Download or read book The Smile on Sorrow's Lips written by Moosa Raza and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-06-24 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mirza Asadullah Khan Ghalib (1797-1869) better known by his nom de-plume, Ghalib, was one of the greatest Urdu and Persian poets of India. Ghalib was born at a time when the glory of the great Mughal Empire had departed from India. He grew up in an era when the British had not only defeated Muslim powers but broken the back of other contenders who were vying to step into the vacant shoes. His ancestors were Turkish mercenary warriors who had migrated to India and were conferred nobility by the ruling powers. He was brought up in a household where no one followed a settled profession. Most of his life Ghalib lived by running up high debts from money lenders. At one time he hid himself in his house for a long period to escape being arrested by his debtors. He was granted a pension of Rupees 10000 which one of his hostile relatives reduced to half. All his life he kept running hither and thither to get it restored. He never succeeded. He liked to drink French wine with his boon companions and gamble. Once he was arrested for gambling and had to suffer a three month incarceration in the British jail. He had an unhappy married life. Unlike himself, his wife was a devout practicing Muslim. He had a short lived affair with a singer that ended when the lady died young. His circumstances improved for a brief interval when he was appointed to correct the poetic compositions of Bahadur Shah, the last Mughal emperor. But the revolt of 1857 put an end to it. For two years Ghalib went about in fear of his life as the vindictive British went about hanging out of hand everyone who was in any way associated with the Mughal court. Ghalib's Persian poetry explores myriad concepts of love, passion, ecstasy, self-realization, life, death, religions and mysticism. At times irreverent, at others passionate and rapturous, Ghalib's poems manage to capture his mystic thought with boldness and clarity, often reminding one of Rumi. His questioning of organized religions, his syncretic appeal to all faiths must have riled many of the contemporary contractors of religion. Ghalib prided himself on the merit of his Persian verses. The corpus of Ghalib's Urdu poetry is small but the volume of his Persian verses much larger. In many of his verses he regrets that he was not born in Iran where he thought his poetry would have been better understood and appreciated. It is an irony of fate, that while a large number of translations of his Urdu poetry in various languages of the world have been proliferating, there is hardly any good translation of his Persian verses. Moosa Raza has made an attempt to fill this lacuna. 'The Smile on Sorrow's Lips' contains over four hundred selected Persian couplets of Ghalib, rendered into Urdu verse and into English. A lifelong student of Arabic, Persian, Urdu and English languages, Moosa Raza distinguished himself in the civil service of India and was conferred one of the highest civilian awards, Padma Bhushan, by the President of India, for his distinguished services to the nation. His published works include a memoir of his early years in service, "Of Nawabs and Nightingales," a book on comparative religion "In Search of Oneness" and a volume of Urdu poems "Khwab-e-Natamam" (Unfulfilled Dreams). He continues to read and write in both English and Urdu.
