Abstract

Chapter 5 of the book "Enlightenment in the Colony: The Jewish Question and the Crisis of Postcolonial Culture" by Aamir R. Mufti is presented. The author clarifies the place of Urdu lyric in Faiz Ahmed Faiz's poem and its relationship to the social horizon that is brought to a crisis in Partition. The author also explores the possibility that Faiz's love lyrics give expression to a self in partition, and that they make visible a dialectic of self and other.
