The Urdu Poetry of Mirza Ghalib
The central thesis of the book is that these motifs, as utilized by Ghalib, are not important in and by themselves, but in the relationships among them. The poet's innovative exploration of these connections reflects brilliantly.
This book's main mission is to present a general introduction to the Urdu ghazal itself, as well as to the works of Mirza Ghalib, arguably still the greatest Urdu poet. It also provides the opportunity for those already familiar with the genre to examine the Divan-e-Ghalib in a new perspective, by providing a concentrated analysis of certain central words, motifs, and image clusters taken together in a novel anthological approach.
