Rasheed Ahmad Siddiqui (1892–1977) (Urdu: رشید احمد صدیقی) was a noted Urdu writer and a professor at Aligarh Muslim University in India. ==Literary life and style== Rasheed Ahmad Siddiqui was born in 1892 in Mariyahu, Jaunpur, U.P. He was one of the most distinguished Urdu writers of the 20th century, known for his unique style of expressing himself in speech as well as in his writings. He was not only a satirist and a humorist, but also a critic, a biographer, a writer of life-sketches and an accomplished essayist. Noted for his mild satire and humour, impressionistic criticism, a lively style of expression and an eye and feeling for the right word, he has few equals in Urdu literature. He has been called ''a visionary with a solution'' in academic circles. Two short extracts from an article published on 13 October 2002 in ''Dawn'' Pakistan's leading English language daily newspaper, reflect the consensus view on Siddiqui in the academic world:〔http://archives.dawn.com/weekly/books/archive/021013/books15.htm〕 "''Rasheed Ahmad Siddiqui is regarded as a major writer of Urdu prose. His sensitivity to the major issues of the subcontinent was remarkable. It was natural for him, being a descendant of Sir Syed Ahmed Khan, to be so concerned about the plight of the Indian Muslims."'' "''Prof Rasheed Ahmed Siddiqui was a liberal and progressive critic. He fervently believed that the Aligarh spirit didn't allow one to stoop low to flout the fundamental norms of decency and propriety. It is only when he is defending the Indo-Muslim culture and its contribution to the Indian culture as a whole that he would appear to be partisan."'' 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「Rasheed Ahmad Siddiqui」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
