Abstract:
Born in 1898 to a learned family in Peshawar, Professor Ahmad Shah Bukhari became famous for his pen name Peter Bukhari. He was fluent in Urdu, Persian, Pashto and English. His correct pronunciation of the English language was famous. Peter Bukhari’s writings on Urdu language and literature were simultaneously humorous with essays, excellent critical essays and excellent translations, but they were not limited to the genres of literature but also became experts in journalism (serious, sound and broadcasting). Also called a diplomat. The great thing about him is that he does not allow his humour to be tainted with ridicule and satire. His humour is a pure mixture of humour and sweetness . There is not so much bitterness in it that it becomes satire and there is not so much open humour that it falls with seriousness. His subtle humour comes from his unique perspective. In addition to Peter’s fascinating essays and translations, many of his books have been published. He was a brilliant speaker, present-minded and a tycoon whose many amusing and interesting things are known. Apart from reading in the hostel, in memory of the deceased, dogs, Mabel and me, many of his interesting articles and letters are especially popular among the readers.

Abstract:
Patras Bukhari is regarded as one of the most important and professed humorists of Urdu literature. He has written very simple and general topics on life. Patras was a multidisciplinary personality, he had proficiency in specialized English. This is why the material in his writings is derived from Eastern civilization and the style reflects the West’s technical and cultural diversity and the simplicity of the style adds to the impression. “Petras kay Mazameen” is full of amusement containing humor, farce, and satire. He initiates the laughing hormones of the reader to secrete through his humourist pen.

Abstract:
Serialisation allowed for remarkable experimentation with the new genre of the novel in colonial South Asia. The open nature of serialisation in South Asia, in which novels were not planned in advance but rather could develop and change while in progress, meant that serialised versions of novels were often more experimental than their later book editions. In this article, I use the pioneering Urdu novel Fasāna-e Āzād (1878–83) as a case study to examine serialisation’s effects on the emerging novel genre in the late nineteenth-century South Asia. By comparing the serial version and later book editions, I show that Fasāna-e Āzād underwent a fundamental transformation from serial to book, changing from a set of satirical sketches critical of Westernisation, to a pro-colonial novel. The protagonist Azad’s shift from a picaresque anti-hero to a proto-nationalist hero reflected the changing nature of respectability, what in Urdu was called sharafat, in the late nineteenth-century South Asia. Finally, I suggest that Fasāna-e Āzād’s evolution from serial to book anticipated the turn in South Asian literature from satire towards nationalist and prescriptive discourse, reflecting the broad movement from ideological and narratological openness to closedness in the twentieth century.

Abstract:
Professor Ghazanfar is a well known fiction writer. Most of his stories, through their creative imagination as well as their visual style, provide excellent evidence of the masterpiece in the plot. In this category, his short story "Saand" has a special place. But the intellectual satire and the bullying of the politicians under the shadow of this system is a symbolic protest against the looting and the insidious approach of turning the black thief into white and the black into black. The texture, the style, the thematic presentation, the symbolic behavior, the characterization and the understanding and transmission of the short story "Saand". As the whole, it reflects a great fiction and the fiction "language" also presents the story along with the event which is the reason. This masterpiece seems to have succeeded in making its place among some of the best Urdu fictions.

Abstract:
This study aims at exploring Tariq Tasi's poetry during the first spell of COVID-19 when face-to-face human interaction was drastically limited. He kept writing on contemporary issues using satire as a literary genre that employs humor, irony and ridicule to highlight social issues.This study is delimited to Tasi's Urdu poetry shared on Whats App in the months of March, April and May 2020 in the post-COVID-19 scenario. The discourse has been analyzed using the conceptual framework of DanSperber and Deirdre Wilson's (2006) relevance theory of humor using discourse analysis as a research method. The analysis reveals how using asocial media app as a swift means of circulation, the poet highlights contemporary social issues and follies of human behavior to which people can relate quite easily and further circulate to create ripples in the human minds to ponder. His poetry presents the sudden desolation of the world because of the unseen, unimaginably strong enemy called Corona that changed the world.

Abstract:
The primary objective of this study is to explore the speeches made by well-known political figure in Pakistan, Mr. Imran Khan, following his removal on April 10, 2022. The research explores the persuasiveness of Khan's speeches, spurred on by his considerable influence, especially among young people. The context of Fairclough's 3D model was used to analyze five carefully selected speeches that were given between June 19, 2022, and March 25, 2023. After being translated from Urdu into English, the speeches were examined. Using the 3D model required close examination of the discourse practices, text, and sociocultural background in order to reveal the complex relationships between language, power, and sociopolitical setting in Pakistan. The analysis shows how skillfully Khan uses rhetorical elements like irony, satire, and intertextuality to address important topics, advocate for change, and raise social consciousness. These findings shed light on wider issues of public opinion, government, and social standards in addition to helping to comprehend Khan's communication tactics. This research sets the stage for future discussions on discourse analysis, political communication dynamics, and the role of language in shaping political discourse, ultimately enhancing our understanding of modern political dialogue in Pakistan.

Abstract:
Print media discourses are highly polarized. Different linguistic and meta-linguistic moves are employed to represent the same issue under different socio-political themes. This study decodes the semiotic discourses of two (02) Pakistani English and Urdu newspapers (Dawn & Jang) about the representation of COVID-19 related issues. This has been done to broaden the canvas of the research by including English and Urdu newspapers’ readership. The time span for data collection ranges from March 15, 2020, to May 15, 2020. The integrated research approach used in the study has been devised by drawing upon Kress (2010) and Krueger (2001) to analyze the data at linguistic and semiotic levels. The findings of semiotic analysis have been validated through focus group discussions on the selected cartoons from English and Urdu newspapers. The findings of the research reveal that the representation of COVID- 19 related issues varies in English and Urdu newspapers. The most frequently occurred themes in English newspapers about the representation of covid19 related issues include economic downfall, danger to the worlds’ economy, the clash between America and China, delays in vaccine production, and food and health insecurity at national and international levels. On contrary, the Urdu newspapers highlighted the issues related to corruption, the oil crisis, a satire on the general masses for not observing SOPs, a satire on health ministry, and poverty increase because of lockdown policies. The research contends that semiotic discourses are the best sites for ideological investment and are designed keeping in view the target audience.

Abstract:
Humor is the beauty of creative literature, which is based on this atmosphere and on the delicate symbols in which it is created. The writer uses Farce to give more meaning and importance to his ideas. If we speak of the origin of the farce in literature, we find its beginning from Ameer Khusro. His work of keh-mukerni, doskhney and Alnamal. Where the elements of humor were created with the use of broken sentences. Through this genre, Sajjad Husain, Ahmad Ali Shoq, etc. used humor as a socio-political critic and tried to develop harmony among civilizations. For Awadh Panch, the era that was of raptures, attacks, and accidents. At this time, we see the line of many poets and prose writers who oppose pessimism and escape and fight these circumstances with satire and humor. But when we see the tradition of satire and humor, we find many famous examples and names in the history of satire and humor. Now, Ali Raza Ahmad and Waheed Ur Rehman are serving in this field. In this article, the comical writings of Waheed Ur Rehman will be critically assessed as a new humorous author in the tradition of Urdu literature.
