Sobre El Autor
A very influential poet and philosopher, Muhammad Iqbal was born in the Punjab, where he received his early education. He also studied philosophy in England and in Germany but returned to India three years later to practice law. Although he noted that European civilization was materially advanced, mostrar más he also found it hypocritical and lacking in support of true human values. Islam, on the other hand, though somnolent, was at once both truly creative and able to give humanity moral direction. It was this, the true Islam of Muhammad and the Koran, that Iqbal sought to help Muslims recover. As evidenced in his six lectures on The Reconstruction of Religious Thought in Islam (1928--29), he interpreted the dynamic of Islam in Bergsonian vitalistic terms, as a leading extension of the fully developed self. In line with his attempt to rethink the problems of Islam in terms of modern categories, Iqbal advocated that the solidly Muslim portions of northwest India be given autonomy so that they could be governed in accordance with Islamic ideals, a position that led to the emergence of the state of Pakistan. He was knighted in 1922. (Bowker Author Biography) mostrar menos

Reseñas
Sir Muhammad Iqbal (1873-1938) no solo se encontraba entre las principales figuras políticas de su tiempo, sino que muchos lo consideraban el padre espiritual de Pakistán y un gran defensor del movimiento de reforma del Islam moderno. También fue poeta, tanto en urdu como en persa.
El tema recurrente de sus poemas es la potencialidad infinita del hombre, como socio de Dios en la configuración del destino del universo. Como musulmán ardiente, Iqbal vio la realización del futuro de la humanidad en una unión de pueblos islámicos, sin restricciones por los lazos de una nación separada, completamente liberada de las cadenas de la dominación imperial.
Javid-nama, comúnmente reconocido como su mayor trabajo, desarrolla este tema dentro del marco de la historia de la Ascensión. En imitación del Profeta del Islam, el poeta se eleva a través de las esferas, encontrando en su viaje celestial muchas grandes figuras de la historia con quienes conversa. El parecido con la Divina Comedia de Dante es obvio. -

The Javid-nama, commonly acknowledged as his greatest work, develops this theme within the frame-work of the Ascension story. In imitation of the Prophet of Islam, the poet soars through the spheres, encountering on his heavenly journey many great figures of history with whom he converses.
