Download or read book Urdu Hindi An Artificial Divide written by Abdul Jamil Khan and published by Algora Publishing. This book was released on 2006 with total page 838 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a blow against the British Empire, Khan suggests that London artificially divided India's Hindu and Muslim populations by splitting their one language in two, then burying the evidence in obscure scholarly works outside the public view. All language is political -- and so is the boundary between one language and another. The author analyzes the origins of Urdu, one of the earliest known languages, and propounds the iconoclastic views that Hindi came from pre-Aryan Dravidian and Austric-Munda, not from Aryan's Sanskrit (which, like the Indo-European languages, Greek and Latin, etc., are rooted in the Middle East/Mesopotamia, not in Europe). Hindi's script came from the Aramaic system, similar to Greek, and in the 1800s, the British initiated the divisive game of splitting one language in two, Hindi (for the Hindus) and Urdu (for the Muslims). These facts, he says, have been buried and nearly lost in turgid academic works. Khan bolsters his hypothesis with copious technical linguistic examples. This may spark a revolution in linguistic history! Urdu/Hindi: An Artificial Divide integrates the out of Africa linguistic evolution theory with the fossil linguistics of Middle East, and discards the theory that Sanskrit descended from a hypothetical proto-IndoEuropean language and by degeneration created dialects, Urdu/Hindi and others. It shows that several tribes from the Middle East created the hybrid by cumulative evolution. The oldest groups, Austric and Dravidian, starting 8000 B.C. provided the grammar/syntax plus about 60% of vocabulary, S.K.T. added 10% after 1500 B.C. and Arabic/Persian 20-30% after A.D. 800. The book reveals Mesopotamia as the linguistic melting pot of Sumerian, Babylonian, Elamite, Hittite-Hurrian-Mitanni, etc., with a common script and vocabularies shared mutually and passed on to I.E., S.K.T., D.R., Arabic and then to Hindi/Urdu; in fact the author locates oldest evidence of S.K.T. in Syria. The book also exposes the myths of a revealed S.K.T. or Hebrew and the fiction of linguistic races, i.e. Aryan, Semitic, etc. The book supports the one world concept and reveals the potential of Urdu/Hindi to unite all genetic elements, races and regions of the Indo-Pakistan sub-continent. This is important reading not only for those interested to understand the divisive exploitation of languages in British-led India's partition, but for those interested in: - The science and history of origin of Urdu/Hindi (and other languages) - The false claims of linguistic races and creation - History of Languages and Scripts - Language, Mythology and Racism - Ancient History and Fossil Languages - British Rule and India's Partition.

Download or read book The Penguin Book of Modern Urdu Poetry written by Julian Nangle and published by Puffin Books. This book was released on 1986 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The poets represented in this collection have made a major contribution to the development of Urdu poetry during this century. In their hands it has been transformed from a literature of philosophy and psychology to one that has given a voice to the suppressed anger of the Urdu-speaking people. Those poets with the most influence, both popular and literary, include Faiz, who used the structure of the gazal, or love lyric, for his own political ends; Rashed, whose free verse represented a break with tradition; Akhtar-ul-Iman, who used an everyday style to address innovative topics; and Sardar J'afri, the intellectual and radical poet who brought a revolutionary fervour to his work. These and other poets, some of them women, document the prevailing moods of twentieth-century India, sometimes at the risk of imprisonment. From the optimism of the forties after the separation of Pakistan, they trace the consequent disappointment of the fifties when the problems remained unsolved. Then comes the scepticism of the sixties and the subsequent introversion that has led to greater artistry. This selection of their work imparts the flavour of life in the sub-continent and attempts to convey the beauty and lyricism of the Urdu original." --
