This book explores the urban, cosmopolitan sensibilities of Urdu
poetry written in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth
centuries in Lucknow, which was the center of a flourishing
Indo-Islamic culture. Ruth Vanita analyzes Rekhti, a type of Urdu
poetry distinguished by a female speaker and a focus on women's
lives, and shows how it became a catalyst for the transformation of
the ghazal.
