Abstract:
The study examines the image of Islam and Pakistan post 9/11 scenario documented in Pakistani Urdu and English newspapers. Results are deduced by analyzing headlines while applying the CDA model projected by Fairclough (1989, 1995) with respect to vocabulary items, viewpoints, and newspapers' ideologies. The results from the study indicated that these two newspapers heavily rely on some selected lexical items to manipulate and control the belief system of the masses. It was shown from the data that Nawa-iWaqat, an Urdu newspaper, fervently utilized figurative language to influence the perception of its readers. It is seen from the analyzed data that the selection of words made by Urdu newspaper is mainly based on prejudice toward certain prominent social figures, politicians, and even toward world-renowned political figures and events. The collected data from the two newspapers and their critical discourse analysis indicated that daily 'Nawa-i-Waqt' gave abundant, sentimental coverage to the issues concerned. On the other hand, the daily 'Dawn' newspaper gave little but positive coverage to the issues of that time.

Abstract:
The present study is concerned with the stereotypical representation of gender in print media of Pakistani newspapers, in English and Urdu. The study specifically focused on discourse analysis critically for aspects of sexism and gender representation. The analysis of the selected texts from both English and Urdu newspapers was done in the light of three-dimensional model presented by Fairclough (1989) and the images were analyzed with objectification theory by Fredrickson and Roberts (1997). The analysis shows gender representation in these newspapers was deep-rooted in their ideological positioning determined by the typical social ideology. The analysis showed that women in Urdu newspaper are represented as objects in provocative manner. They are represented mostly in their stereotypical role like house wives and pieces of enjoyment for men. The English newspaper on the other hand, showed them more in their professional role though with some cultural tags as well.

Abstract:
This thesis’ original contribution to knowledge is to indicate the unique contribution of qasbah­‐based Urdu newspapers to the emergence of an Urdu public sphere in early 20th century South Asia, using as a primary lens the Urdu newspaper Madīnah. In doing so, this thesis will shed light on debates relating to Muslim religious identity, urban life, social status, and gender reform. Madīnah newspaper was published in Bijnor qasbah in Bijnor district, UP, from 1912 onwards. By the early 20th century, elite, literate qasbah dwellers increased their attachment to their ashrāf identity, even as the definition of that social status group was being transformed. The nature of ashrāf conceptions of the qasbah in the Urdu newspaper conversation sheds light onto the nature of the Urdu public sphere, complicating existing narrative explanations of UP Muslim identity transformations. In the 12 years that constitute the span of the study, international developments such as the Italo-­‐Turkish War, the Balkan Wars, and World War I, with domestic transformations in municipal policies and the activism of some Hindu groups motivated Muslims to redefine their place in early 20th century society. At the same time, the early 20th century saw the rising prominence of the qasbah as a centre of spiritual and cultural life among ashrāf Muslims. World War I and the non-­‐cooperation movement threatened the British Empire’s hold on South Asia. In the midst of these shifting sands stood the city of Bijnor, a backwoods qasbah in the district of the same name. Bijnor’s publication Madīnah provided a regional platform for scholars, laymen, and poets to discuss their place in the new order. As part of a network of literary publications exchanged between qasbahs in the first half of the twentieth century, Madīnah shaped and complicated gender boundaries, religious identity, social status, and political alliance, all in the service of the Muslim ummah, or community. This thesis places Madīnah in the context of the broader Urdu newspaper market and the incipient newspaper culture of qasbahs, which both reflected the broadened geographic horizon of the qasbatī ashrāf and placed a premium on the qasbah as a place set apart from the city. After laying this foundation, the thesis turns to the place of Islam in qasbah newspapers and Madīnah. Newspapers reflected a division among ashrāf regarding the centrality of Islam in elite culture, revealing an ideological division between the qasbah and major urban centres Delhi, Lucknow, and Calcutta. Madīnah and other newspapers sought to establish an indelible link between Islam and ashrāf identity, in contrast to some urban newspapers, which sought to lay the groundwork instead for a secular, nationalized Muslim identity. This thesis then turns to the expanding geographic horizons of Madīnah newspaper, both enabled by novel technology and neutralized as a threat by careful framing of international and trans-‐regional content. The subsequent chapter deals with Madīnah's Women’s Newspaper, which demonstrated a trend toward gender ventriloquism in reformist approaches to gender. Many articles penned ostensibly by women had male authors; Madīnah's articles expressed a complex set of reactions to intimate female experiences, including curiosity, fascination, and anxiety. Qasbah newspapers offer new avenues for insight into the tensions that characterized the Urdu public of the early 20th century. This thesis highlights the character of qasbatī ashrāf's engagement with the broader literary conversation via newspapers during a time of dramatic social transformation, in the process contributing to the form of the Urdu public sphere.

Abstract:
Scholarship on the lithographic press has focused primarily on books—in particular, on the print traditions emanating from large cities like Lucknow. While printers used lithography to make books look more like manuscripts, Urdu newspaper publishers used lithography to make newspapers look like the mass-produced correspondence that had previously bound together ashrāf social networks. Madīnah not only was an example of commercial publishing but also deserves consideration as a manifestation of piety. Journalism was a farẓ or duty understood in religious terms by the proprietor and editors of Madīnah. The example of Madīnah suggests that we must consider this potential dimension of other Urdu newspapers as well.

Abstract:
This chapter traces a network of regionally, nationally, and locally significant publications, with Madinah newspaper at its center. The threads of this newspaper publication are placed in context with periodicals, associations, and publishing houses to make clear newspapers’ contribution to the delineation of an Urdu public sphere in the first quarter of the twentieth century. Qasbahs not only contributed to the deeper penetration of the public sphere in North India but also influenced the path and formation of that fragmented public. In an age of urbanization where the qasbah, or Islamicate small town, has been overlooked as critical to the construction of Muslim identity, this chapter highlights the language and visual culture of these ancestral towns as influential in the development of a Muslim public in th), ^#e early twentieth century through print publishing.

Abstract:
Founded in 1912 in Bijnor, a small town in northwest United Provinces, the newspaper Madīnah became one of the most successful newspapers of any language circulating in North India and the Punjab. This paper’s ultimate success is not something most observers could have predicted. It was published in a qasbah, a market town with an Islamic hue, and its proprietor, Majīd Ḥasan, was not influential or rich. Nonetheless, despite its isolated beginnings, the paper Madīnah went on to become popular across North India and the Punjab and to play an important role in the independence movement. The story of Madīnah newspaper shows how understanding the relationship between distinctive urban spaces and attitudes to time is important for understanding the early twentieth-century public sphere that orbited around the star of Urdu, a sphere that increasingly emphasized ties to Islamic space and time.

Abstract:
Out of the intersection of a modernity that shrank miles into minutes with a disjointed temporality preserved by the limitations to fast travel, Madinah newspaper delineated a new space and time. It transformed its geographic isolation into a source of moral authenticity for the modern age. As a modern Islamic voice it wove its local public into the fabric of a history being lived by Muslims in many places. From the fusion of the telegraph and the printing press with centuries-old social and communication networks it fashioned credibility and accessibility; with Western print technology, it preserved the religious significance of traditional calligraphy; with this religious visual authority it elevated the aesthetic of the newspaper form. Embodying as a business the virtuous rhythms of Muslim devotion, it became an indelible part of the life rhythm of its home qasbah and of communities beyond its borders. This indicates that this and other small-town newspapers may have been a key vector by which these political orientations were incubated, nourished, and maintained.

Abstract:
The crisis in China at the turn of the twentieth century, beginning with the Boxer Uprising and the ensuing International Expedition, elicited tremendous sympathy and support for China and the Chinese from people in India. As contemporary books and articles highlighted in this chapter show, China exerted a powerful hold over the popular imagination in India because its people saw themselves and their experiences as colonized subjects reflected in the tumultuous events in China. Vernacular newspapers in Bengali, Hindi, and Urdu echoed similar concerns and sympathies; their reports on China also invariably sided with their Asian neighbour and lamented the growing might and influence of Western powers in the region. Many voices also expressed concern that the colonization of China would mean the end of an Asia they envisioned themselves part of, with ties particularly strong and intimate with China because the two countries were bound together by geography, history, civilization, and the shared experience of Western imperialism and colonialism.

Abstract:
Mohammad Ali Rogay, long-time participant in the Bombay Country Trade with China in the first half of the nineteenth century, and partner in the prominent trading firm of Jamsetjee Jejeebhoy & Co, was also the most prominent Muslim citizen of Bombay during his lifetime. He was also the leader of the Konkani Musalman community which had been settled in Bombay for many centuries. In spite of his prominence in business and political spheres, very little information is available on him, nor has he, or the community he hails from, attracted serious scholarly attention. This essay outlines Rogay’s trading career in China and India, his public career in Bombay, his role as a patron of publishing and printing, his secular and religious charities, and his leadership of the Konkani Musalman community. A wide variety of sources including contemporary newspapers, government archives, private business archives, contemporary Urdu imprints and community histories, have helped in reconstructing Rogay’s life, which has largely remained obscure. This investigation explores the reasons why Rogay (and, by extension, his community) continues to remain on the fringes of the mainstream historical narrative on nineteenth-century Bombay.

Abstract:
This chapter discusses how Madīnah newspaper saw its relationship to the global political context and how it counseled Muslims to understand and act in the world in the early twentieth century. In the case of Bijnor, the alterity of the qasbah enabled a key transition from promoting League–Congress cooperation to justifying cooperation with Hindus, opposition to the Muslim League, and suspicion of the Westernized city, all in Islamic terms. At the same time, it argues that this particular qasbah timescape was not only oriented primarily around the issue of affiliation or alliance with specific national parties, but also significantly on a particular relationship to the past.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter delves into the role of space and time in the formation of the public. Statements in Madīnah linked Bijnor’s physical isolation to a temporal distance, a spatial-temporal rift that allowed it to define a segment of the Urdu public that stood at odds with the “Westernized city,” and from this position also to reach out and connect with a broader Muslim qaum. This chapter explores the power of alternate temporalities, enabled by nostalgia, as a mechanism of power. Statements about the passage of time were irruptive, enabling the construction of an alternative qasbah timescape, and with this alternative timescape, an alternative public. While the qasbah has more recently been tied to an idealized past, close analysis of the discourse of Madīnah newspaper reveals an early twentieth-century voice that saw the present, past, and future as productively intertwined in the qasbah.

Abstract:
News Headlines (NHs) are of the most creative uses of natural languages in a media text. An NH is the frontline of a news article.
