Nets of Awareness: Urdu Poetry and Its Critics
Frances W. Pritchett
This critical study uses the writings of the distinguished Urdu poets Azad and Hali to demonstrate how the British attempted to devalue Indo-Muslim culture following the Mutiny of 1857. It examines how the metaphysical, sexually-ambiguous style of these Urdu poets was derided by the British.
