Historical and Cultural Consciousness in Intizar Hussain's Intellectual Legacy
Abstract
Intizar Hussain was an eminent fiction writer, critic, columnist, and a trendsetter in Urdu fiction, particularly. In post-partition Urdu fiction, he came to subvert the very paradigm of writing fiction, i.e., realism. Migration kept igniting his creative impulse. This paper analyzes the whole arena of the historical, cultural, and religious influences that shaped his creative imagination and intellect. The author seeks to provide insights into the process Intizar Hussain employed in disentangling violence, demographic transformation and displacement all caused by partition of the Indian subcontinent in 1947.
