}}Shamsur Rahman Faruqi (born 15 January 1935) is an Indian poet and an Urdu critic and theorist. He has formulated fresh models of literary appreciation.[1] He absorbed western principles of literary criticism and subsequently applied them to Urdu literature, but only after adapting them to address literary aesthetics native to Arabic, Persian, and Urdu[2]

Early life

He was born on 15 January 1935 in India. He received his Master of Arts (MA) degree in English from Allahabad University in 1955.[1]

Career

He began writing in 1960. Initially he worked for the Indian postal service (1960-1968), and then as a chief postmaster-general and member of the Postal Services Board, New Delhi until 1994. He was also editor of his literary magazine Shabkhoon and part-time professor at the South Asia Regional Studies Center at the University of Pennsylvania.[1]

An expert in classical prosody and ‘ilm-e bayan (the science of poetic discourse), he has contributed to modern literary discourse with a profundity rarely seen in contemporary Urdu critics.[1] His most recent books, The Mirror of Beauty (translated into English from the Urdu Kai Chaand The Sar-e-Aasmaan in 2006), and The Sun That Rose From The Earth (Penguin India, 2014), have been highly critically acclaimed.[3]

He is the recipient of numerous honors and awards. Most recently he was awarded the prestigious Saraswati Samman for his work She`r-e Shor-Angez, a four-volume study of the eighteenth-century poet Mir Taqi Mir.[1]

Dastangoi

Dastangoi is a 16th-century Urdu oral storytelling art form.[6] The art form was revived in 2005[12] and has been performed in India, Pakistan, and the United States.[7] The art form reached its zenith in the Indian sub-continent in the 19th century and is said to have died with the demise of Mir Baqar Ali in 1928.[8] Shamsur Rahman Faruqi and his nephew, writer and director Mahmood Farooqui have played significant roles in its revival in the 21st century.[9]

Awards

He was awarded the Saraswati Samman, an Indian literary award, in 1996.[1] The Government of India awarded him the civilian honour of Padma Shri in 2009.[10]
