Rövid leírás:
This study journeys into the little-known reportage works of legendary Urdu writer Qurratulain Hyder, mapping the creative archives of memory, movement, and polyvocality that empowered her storytelling to transcend any imposed boundary?whether of genre, gender, religion, language, or nation-state.

In a career spanning seven decades, Qurratulain Hyder (1927?2007) achieved distinction as a novelist, journalist, translator, and innovator in Urdu literature. To shed new light on this multilingual itinerant woman with a curatorial eye, the present study turns to Hyder?s genre-bending reportage writing, which has not yet garnered the same scholarly attention as her majestic novels and short stories. At once autobiographical, admonitory, journalistic, and lyrical, these reportages offer glimpses of Hyder?s multigenerational erudition, artistry, and mastery of Perso-Urdu poetic aesthetics, as well as the challenges she faced when breaking from histories freighted by patriarchal, colonial, and nationalist enterprises.
?Tapping into the rarely mined reportages of Qurratulain Hyder, Syed Akbar Hyder crosses the River of Fire with grace to bring us a gift of interconnected histories, astute political commentaries, and ecumenical spiritual assemblies. This riveting book with its vibrant lyrical tapestry is a ticket to join Qurratulain Hyder as she travels and takes on the world, defying the borders between fiction and non-fiction, between prose and poetry, and most importantly, between the languages, ideologies, and histories that divide us.?
Muzaffar Alam, George V. Bobrinsky Professor at the University of Chicago
?The first serious study of a major Indian writer to appear in English, S. Akbar Hyder?s splendid book represents a milestone in the literary history of South Asia. His subject is not so much an important woman writer of the twentieth century, but the way in which she was able to rethink both the history of India and through it that of the world in startlingly novel ways. A real achievement.?
Faisal Devji, Professor of Indian History, University of Oxford
?Among the most acclaimed Urdu writers of the 20th century, Qurratulain Hyder?s electrifying personality comes alive in this illuminating study of her vast literary corpus and the myriad influences that informed her enlightened world view. A skilled and imaginative reader of Indo-Persianate literature, Syed Akbar Hyder?s probing analysis of Qurratulain?s writings, notably her autobiography and Urdu ?reportage? makes for an engaging and instructive read. Enthusiasts of Urdu literature and her many admirers the world over will find a profusion of insights here into the life and work of a dynamic, innovative, and fiercely independent woman who has left her mark on the history of Urdu literature.?
Ayesha Jalal, Mary Richardson Professor of History at Tufts University and the recipient of the 1998 MacArthur Foundation Fellowship
?Many of us think we know Qurratulain's work, but all too often that comes down to little more than knowing ?g k? Dary?. The present study elegantly refocuses our attention by instead taking her ?reportages? as her ?historical and ideological coordinates? over time. Among these, she seems most notably to have invented a powerfully mar?iyah-like genre called an '?lam ?shob that can truly be said to live up to its name. She also makes subtle use of the Iqbalian concept of harj???, which the study unpacks for us in a particularly revelatory way. In short, if you want to deepen your understanding of Qurratulain and her work, this excellent study is an ideal guide.?
Frances Pritchett, Professor Emeritus, Columbia University
