The Last Musha`irah of Delhi
by Mirza Farhatullah Baig (Author), Akhtar Qamber (Tr.)

- Paperback
Orient BlackSwan Pvt. Ltd, 2010. Softcover. New. 14 x 21 cm. The twilight Delhi of the later Mughals, decadent in statesmanship, devastated by marauders, declining in history, still managed to leave behind something more durable than marble and sandstone: a magnificent body of Urdu poetry and prose. It is this facet of the city that Mirza Farhatullah Baig Dehalvi captures in this unique literary work. Drawing upon living memory, manuscripts and other documents, he wrote Dehli ki Akhri ShamaÛª, a fictional account of what purports to be the last great mushaÛªirah held in Delhi under the patronage of Bahadur Shah Û÷ZafarÛª, the last Mughal emperor. The narrative recreates for us the various stages of organizing such an occasion, introduces us to unforgettable people and now-forgotten places, and builds up to the climaxÛÓthe mushaÛªirah itselfÛÓat which all the important Urdu poets of the time are present. The present volume is the first-ever English translation of Farhatullah BaigÛªs classic, accompanied by a long introduction, textual and other annotations, and extensive glossary. Much more than a work of translation, this is a labour of love and scholarship. Printed Pages: 192.
