Wheels of Earth and Sky and Majeed Amjad
تلخیص
Majeed Amjad’s concept of man is distinct from the one his contemporary held. Early period of Majeed Amjad’s poetry is replete with the traditional concept of nature, according to which she is to be conquered and mastered but soon he abandoned it. He came to embrace nature as part of the creative process perpetually going on in the universe. In the second period of his poetry, nature rises to become a companion; he communicates with nature and considers it essential for intellectual bearings of human beings. Hence, the tree acquires a special place in his poetry. He also wrote a great number of poems on animals and even on insects. In his point of view, nature is not subservient to human beings, rather a living entity that has equal right to grow and flourish. This article explores diverse expressions of Majeed Amjad’s deep empathy with nature. This empathy made Amjad to mitiate an unending dialogue with nature which might be termed a unique experience in the realm of modern Urdu poetry.
