Nasir Abbas Nayyar () is a Pakistani Urdu language writer, critic and essayist. He has written books on poetry, literary theory and post colonial study of Urdu literature. He has produced some important books on structuralism and postmodernism and their influence on Urdu literature.A book on life and poetics of Majid Amjid is another his significant contribution.His most famous work is on Postcolonial Study of Urdu Literature published by Oxford University Press, Karachi, Pakistan titled ''Mabad Nau Abadiat(Urdu Kay Tanazur MeiN )'' and ''Urdu Adab ki Tashkeel e Jadid''. His books on post colonialism proved ground breaking works in Urdu. Excerpt from an interview with Express Tribune: Colonialism might have had some benefits, but it adversely affected culture by breaking the natural unity of the subcontinent’s inhabitants and starting new discourse, which only spread confusion among the populace, Nayyar said. 〔tribune.com.pk/story/.../urdu-still-under-the-influence-of-colonialism/〕 “Just look at the rift created by colonialism between Urdu and Hindi, the division between Muslim and Hindu,” he said. “These rifts were so severe, they led to the division of the subcontinent.” Nayyar’s claims may be considered controversial as there is a significant population of Urdu speakers and Muslims in India, but he is convinced that the concept of nationalism did not exist in India before colonialism. The British introduced it to the people here and divided them on religious and linguistic grounds, he suggested. The effects of colonialism persist on our postcolonial language and literature, Nayyar said. 〔http://tribune.com.pk/story/543314/urdu-still-under-the-influence-of-colonialism/〕 ==Personal life== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Nasir Abbas Nayyar」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
