Modern Urdu Poetry: Progress or the Discovery of Individuality
Keywords
In Urdu criticism, modern poetry has generally been studied at a thematic level. Even poets whose poetry has been examined from an artistic perspective, their poetry also eventually begins to be discussed from a social perspective.There are very few examples of poetry in Urdu that is written purely on the basis of image. Second, if it is written, it is studied in a social context. In this article, we have made the topic of discussion those poets who have cleansed their poetry of any kind of ideology.There are many such poetic examples in the West, but here it is rare. In this article, we have studied two poets, Muhammad Salim-ur-Rehman and Muhammad Alvi. There are such strong examples in the work of both these poets. In this article, we have tried to identify a behavior parallel to the poetic tradition of Urdu poetry that has not yet been noticed by any critic.Poetic examples have proven that although these poems are written in Urdu, they are directly related to the tradition of Western poetry, where the meaning is not carried by the poet but is in the hands of the reader.This is the uniqueness of these poets that distinguishes them from the tradition of Urdu poetry.
