11. Persian Poets on the Streets: The Lore of Indo-Persian Poetic Circles in Late Mughal India

Stefano Pellò (author)

Chapter of: Tellings and Texts: Music, Literature and Performance in North India(pp. 303–326)

Pellò zeros in on a specific Indo-Persian genre: tazkiras of poets, their short biographical sketches. Moving from the courts to the streets, he brings a complex analysis to engaging, sometimes humorous, material.
