Mirza Ghalib and John Donne are regarded as
prominent love poets of their respective languages. Their
treatment of the theme of love, i.e., romantic love, is quite
realistic and unconventional. Jealousy is an important
aspect of the emotion of romantic love. The present study
explores various sources of jealousy as they are
experienced by the protagonists, the male lovers in the
poetry of Donne and Ghalib. One of these sources of
jealousy is the presence of the Rival. The study discusses
the impact of the presence of the Rival on the love triangles
of Donne and Ghalib and illustrates how lovers in them
react to the power and influence of the Rival. The study
takes insights from the social sciences, as for example the
concept of sexual jealousy given by Berscheid & Regan (
2005 ) and applies them to the love poetry of Donne and
Ghalib. The present is a case study of comparative
literature and analyses the various manifestations of the
emotion of jealousy in the love poetry of Donne and
Ghalib in order to determine how much these love poets
from two different cultures and times resemble with or
differ from each other.
