This paper claims that the 'Contemporary Social Sciences'under a secularist-materialist world view has led the humankind to serious consequences, because it has neglected the ethical and religious dimensions of social sciences. Consequently, the humankind's physical comfort is confused with true happiness of soul and body. This problem is acute in the sphere of social sciences, because they do not only influence an individual in its personal thought and action but also influences the whole society.
Exploring Indian Freedom movement through Urdu Poetry.pdf
2018
In Indian history, the freedom struggle was a political turning point which created a ripple throughout different fields of thought, especially in literature. Urdu poets writing during the Indian Freedom struggle, majorly from 1857 to 1930s also felt the ripple. Their individual works are testaments of the shifting image of the nation that ultimately led to the formation of independent India in 1947. Ideas like nationalism, nation and national identity are continuously changing and evolving, therefore, it is interesting to note how poets with their individual works were piecing together the image of India that was influenced by political shifts and also influenced the political image of India.
Issues of Contemporary Indian Poetry
Indian literature cannot be defined by its linguistic singularity; rather it celebrates due to its plurality. It is the literature which is being written in different languages of the nation. Therefore various attempts have been made by the scholars to discuss about the ethos behind the literature written in different languages. The contemporary Indian society is undergoing through some significantly rapid changes, therefore the depiction of the issues reflected in literature is also changing. The societal politics is in a position that the tradition of India has also been challenged. The colonial legacy and the fight to re-establish the identity was a common feature of the post-independence Indian literature. But the neo-colonizers have guided us to such a position that we even feel ambiguous in searching the right path towards identity. The Indian poetry of the contemporary age has nicely picked up such issues of the contemporary society. In this paper, an attempt has been made to discuss about how the poets have attempted to focus about the existence of the primeval feelings of being Indian through the poems. The established beliefs on the issues like society, identity, individuality, existence etc. has been challenged by the contemporary happenings. The poets of the contemporary India has tried to focus such issues including the challenges. By citing some examples of a few contemporary Indian poets, some of the major issues of contemporary Indian poetry will come to light and this will be helpful in further discussion about the present and future of Indian poetry.
