Abstract:
This article presents translations and analyses of some of the earliest known examples of Pashto literature: the poems of a figure known as Mullā Arzānī. The Pashto ghazals of Arzānī reflect a Sufi and messianic religio-cultural milieu in which Pashto is understood to be a divine language. An exploration of Arzānī’s poetry and Arzānī’s understanding of his own language use presents a strong challenge to the overly deterministic role that notions of “Pashtun identity” have played in Euro-American understandings of Pashto literature. Arzānī’s use of Pashto aimed not to express Pashtun ethnic ide

Abstract
 Yunus Emre, the prominent Turkish poet who left his mark on the 13th century, stands out as the most significant folk poet producing poetry in vernacular Turkish. On the other hand, Ralph Waldo Emerson, the American essayist, is recognized as one of the most influential thinkers of the 19th century. Despite living in different centuries, the commonality between these two representative figures is love, more precisely Divine love. This article offers a comprehensive analysis of the intellectual realms of Turkish Sufi poet Emre and American thinker Emerson through their profound e

Abstract:
I present the poetry and life of the influential Sufi scholar Rumi in order to counter the prevalent Islamophobic images of Muslims in the media. Rumi’s philosophy epitomizes a cosmopolitan sensibility that embraced cultural diversity. One of Rumi’s most important legacies for our contemporary world is how his work creates bridges between Western and Islamic cultures. I suggest that the true cosmopolitan value of Rumi’s poetry can be realized if Rumi’s poems and philosophy are situated within their specific cultural and historical context, and are appreciated alongside the works of contemporar

Abstract:
This chapter directly picks up where Stétié ends, with a textual analysis of a poetic cycle of chapbooks by Meddeb. I argue that a renouveau in the Francophone lyric is made possible through his translations of classical Arabic and Sufi poetry. In his chapbooks, Meddeb attempts to refashion himself, after his two successful and widely acclaimed first novels Talismano (1979) and Phantasia (1986), as a mystical, wandering Sufi poet. With Tombeau d’Ibn Arabi (1987), Les 99 stations de Yale (1995), and Aya dans les villes (1999) in particular, Meddeb manically focuses on an adaptational, modern re

Abstract The Kansas Rapture for saxophone quartet (2015) by (Farhad) Forrest Pierce is permeated with allusions to American landscapes and religion that conveys topical pastoral allusions with spiritual grace. The opening movement, “Cantillation Fanfares,” includes horn calls and a “call to prayer,” and the second movement, “Cimarrón,” after the river, musically depicts water through babbling, polyrhythmic runs, both invoking a pastoral retreat elevated through religion to the spiritual pastoral. The third movement, “Bison Zikr,” imagines a bison herd engaging in a Sufi devotional, in communi

This chapter showcases Betty Davis’s transposition of women’s blues into rock-inflected version of funk. Bolden advances two key arguments. First, Davis reprised the sexual politics and rebellious spirit exemplified by singers Bessie Smith and Ida Cox, for instance, and reinterpreted those principles in modern America. Second, Davis’s eroticism and sui generis style of funk, which she expressed in her recordings and onstage, reflected a sexual politics that served as a counterpart to those of black feminists writers such as Toni Morrison, Alice Walker, and many others who were publishing coext

Abstract:
Abstract Introducing a collection of African oral literature in 1988, the Nigerian polemicist and poet Chinweizu warned against any approach to the subject that reinforces ‘an Africa which European racism is flattered to imagine’. Instead, he suggests that ‘we [Africans] should listen to Africans talking to Africans about the world’. Writers like Chinweizu are concerned that the encounter between Africa and Europe is neither innocent nor symmetrical: slavery and the colonial past tilt this uneasy exchange in favour of non Africans. As outsiders, Europeans face a central problem when considerin
