Rumination on Chronopoetics and the Political Subject: Miraji Reads Faiz Ahmed Faiz’s Lyric
Main Article Content
Abstract
Using the poet Miraji’s short exegesis of the Faiz’s poem IntebÄh (warning or alarm), popularly known by its opening word , bol (speak), this paper will parse a small entry into Faiz’s poetics. What did this curious imbrication of modernist exegesis with political poetics allow us to see?  In this paper I suggest that Miraji’s analysis allows us to see anew the ways in which romantic realism, fleshed politics and chronopoetics come together to give us another take on Faiz’s luminous corpus.
