What is Mirza Ghalib : a creative biography about?

A Creative And Interesting Biography, This Study Is Based On The Life And Work Of Mirza Ghalib (1797-1869) Who Was Arguably The Greatest Eastern Poet Of The Nineteenth Century. Here Two Main Motifs Interweave - The Poet's Destiny, And His Creative Work. Seemingly Ruled By Fate And Predetermination, The Circumstances Of His Life Resemble The Plot Of A Detective Story. His Poetry Reveals Itself As A Wonderful Testimony Of Harmony, Spiritual Power, Inner Freedom, And Intellectual Capacity. It Is Marked With A Unique Sense Of Humour Which Distinguishes His Poetic Compositions, Endearing Him To His Admirers, And Stinging His Opponents. The Author Acknowledges Ghalib's Role As That Of A Forerunner Of Modern Literature In The Subcontinent, And Believes That He Represents Classic World Culture.--book Jacket. Natalia Prigarina ; Translated From The Russian By M. Osama Faruqi. Includes Bibliographical References (p. [352]-353) And Index.
