This is a detailed study of the illustrations to Amir Khusrau's Khamsah, in which twenty discourses are followed by a brief parable, and four romances. Amir Khusrau (1253-1325) lived the greater part of adventurous life in Delhi; he composed in Persian, and also in Hindi. From the point of view of manuscript illustration, his most important work is his Khamsah (Quintet'). Khusrau's position as a link between cultures of Persia and India means that the early illustrated copies of the Khamsah have a particular interest. The first extant exemplar is from the Persian area in the late 14th century, but a case can be made that work was probably illustrated earlier in India.

The Pre-Moghul Muslim Presence In The Sub-Continent Is Very Important From Many Angles. In This Phase The Basic Structure Of An Efficient Administ¬Ration Evolved And From This Point Of View Alaudin Khilji Holds A Cardinal Importance. His Administration Result¬Ed In The Prosperity Of His Subjects And Kept His Treasury Filled. Literature And Learning, Art And Architecture And Public Morality Reached A New Peak.It Is A Deplorable Irony Of Time That We Do Not Possess An Accurate And Detailed Historical Record Of The Achievements Of Such A Great Ruler. Sultan Ala-Ud-Din Has Not Been Dealt Fairly By The Historians For One Reason Or The Other. It Was Necessary To Present This Great Sultan In His True Colours. Dr. Ghulam Sarwar Khan Niazi, The Author Of This Book Has Carefully Examined The Accounts Of All Known Contemporary And Early Writers And Has Drawn A Picture Of The Sultan, Based On True And Accepted Facts Provided By Contemporary Historians, Which Is, To Say The Least, Different. The Freshness Of The Point Of View Emerges From A Genuine Erudition And Scholarly Perception Of The Subject.

AMIR KHUSRAU'S DIVAN A Selection (Pocketbook Edition) Translation & Introduction Paul Smith. Amir Khusrau (1253-1325), the 'Parrot of India' was born at Patigali near the Ganges in India. At the age of thirty-six he was poet-laureate, serving many sultans. He was not only fluent in Persian, in which he composed the majority of his 92 books, but also in Arabic, Hindi and Sanskrit. He composed ten long masnavis, five Divans of ghazals (nearly 160 here trans.) and ruba'is, dohas, qasidas, riddles and many prose works (see appendixes). He was a Master musician and invented the sitar. The Perfect Master Nizam ud-din took him as his disciple and eventually he became God-realized. He rebelled against narrow spirituality and helped redefine the true Sufi way. He was a profound influence on Hafiz (who copied a book of his ghazals, still in existence) and is seen as the link between Sadi and Hafiz in updating the form and content of the ghazal and eroticising it. This is the largest selection of his poems in English. Introduction is on his Life & Times & Poetry and the Forms in which he wrote and on Sufism & Poetry. The correct rhyme-structure has been kept and the meaning of these beautiful, often enlightened poems. Print (12 pt) Format (6" x 9") Cream Paper 226 pages. Comments on Paul Smith's Translation of Hafiz's 'Divan'. It is not a joke... the English version of ALL the ghazals of Hafiz is a great feat and of paramount importance. I am astonished." Dr. Mir Mohammad Taghavi (Dr. of Literature) Tehran. "Superb translations. 99% Hafiz 1% Paul Smith." Ali Akbar Shapurzman, translator of works into Persian and knower of Hafiz's Divan off by heart. "Smith has probably put together the greatest collection of literary facts and history concerning Hafiz." Daniel Ladinsky (Penguin Books author). "I was very impressed with the beauty of these books." Dr. R.K. Barz. Faculty of Asian Studies, Australian National University. Paul Smith (b. 1945) is a poet, author and translator of many books of Sufi poets of the Persian, Arabic, Urdu, Turkish, Pashtu and other languages including Hafiz, Sadi, Nizami, Rumi, 'Attar, Sana'i, Jahan Khatun, Obeyd Zakani, Mu'in, Amir Khusrau, Nesimi, Kabir, Anvari, Ansari, Jami, Omar Khayyam, Rudaki, Yunus Emre, Shah Latif, Bulleh Shah, Iqbal, Ghalib, Dara Shikoh, Lalla Ded Seemab, Jigar, Mu'in, Abu Nuwas and many others, and his own poetry, fiction, plays, biographies, children's books and 12 screenplays.

Multilinguality gained a new impetus in North India with the influx of West Asian Muslim communities around the thirteenth century. Over a period of time, it entered everyday life as well as creative and scholarly pursuits. The fifteenth century, in particular, saw unprecedented vitality for literary practice, and the poet-scholar Vidyapati from Mithila was one of the many luminaries of the time. This volume encompasses an intimate linguistic, literary, and historical study of three of Vidyapati’s major works: a Sanskrit treatise on writing (Likhanāvalī); a celebratory biography in Apabhraṃśa (Kīrttilatā); and a collection of mythohistorical tales in Sanskrit (Puruṣaparīkṣā ). Through this examination, the author reveals a world that is marked by a range of ideas, expertise, literary tropes, ethical regimes, and historical consciousness, drawn eclectically from sources that belong to ‘diverse’ politico-cultural traditions. Using Vidyapati’s narratives, A Political History of Literature illustrates that many ideals extolled in fifteenth century literary cultures were associated with an imperial state—a state that was a century away from coming into being—and testifies that ideas incubate and get actualized in realpolitik only in the long duration.
