Shamsur Rahman Faruqi

4.9/5 (22227 ratings)

Description:Faced with the daunting task of writing about Shamsur Rahman Faruqi one is inclined to reach instinctively to one’s betters and to latch onto hyperboles and superlatives. I would therefore try to resist both the impulses and shall proceed mundanely and work up to what I want to say. The essays collected in this slender volume under the title How to Read Iqbal?— Essays on Iqbal, Urdu Poetry & Literary Theory address a very important issue of Iqbal Studies, directly in the first and second parts of the book, namely, “How to Read Iqbal?” and “Review Articles— Iqbal Studies” and comes back to it in the third part, “Urdu Literature— Literary Themes and History”, in an indirect but wider perspective. The question has been elucidated by him in the following words. Is Iqbal, the Poet, Relevant to us Today? The answer to this question could be “Yes”, or “No”, or “Partly”, depending on what image of Iqbal one has in one’s mind and also, of course, what sort of person one is…...It is curious that the Iqbal who is talked about and discussed by one critic is so different from the Iqbal who appears in another critic’s writings that one is inclined to wonder if they are talking about the same poet. Now there is nothing bad (and in fact everything good) in a poet being approached and interpreted in as many legitimate ways as possible; the fact that a poet’s work admits of many interpretations is a sure indication of his being a good poet. The problem arises when one set of persons believes that a certain poet is good, while another would have nothing to do with him. Another problem that arises generally, and especially in reference to Iqbal is that the reasons that one set of persons, or one critic, adduces to support the view that a poet is good, are not found by another group sufficient or even valid to prove that the poet in question is good. In fact, it often happens that the reasons somebody offers to show that a certain poet is good, are considered by some others as proof enWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
