Analytical discourse on important anthologies of modern Sindhi short stories from 1942 -1947
تلخیص
Sindhi short stories had its genesis in 1914; the most
remarkable was "Ado Abdul Rahman" by Amar Lal Hingorani
written in 1930.Some books of Sindhi short stories were published in
1932, though later in 1942, Sindhi writers realistically depicted
socio- political conditions like Quit India Movement and tense
Hindu-Muslim relations. These writers tried to write about
communal harmony and also preached sectarian unity and peace.
Imperial role of the British colonial masters was exposed along with
those of the capitalist exploiters and irascible feudal. Post World
War Two calamities with economic and societal disasters caught
short story writers' imagination and it resulted in a social awareness
verging on nationalistic crusade via the power of pen. Proliferation
of the printing press and publishers led to many great anthologies
of short stories, the names thereof are mentioned in the article. A
critical historical discourse brings back a nascent conscientious
literary era. Now the present times need similar response as well.
