"This is a first-ever history of art written in the country, which discusses artistic forms and personal identities of artists as a discourse on the modern and contemporary art of Pakistan. The first two chapters deal with the subcontinental art scene against the background of the decay of Mughal painting, the emergence of company painting and, finally, the triumph of the western style of Raj painting, and reaction against it from Abanindranath Tagore and Chughtai.

The author argues that Pakistani art is a distinct facet of the Muslim heritage of the subcontinent. The works of Zubeida Agha, Shakir Ali, and other pioneers of modern art, have been analysed in detail, (less)

"The fact that literature, though culture-bound and period-based, has a universal and timeless appeal implies that there is something in a literary work, which, for lack of any better term, may be called literary universal that transcends time and space across lands and cultures. The speculations of the aestheticians of the west and of India, about the locus of literariness or what constitutes literariness, though in all probability developed independently, have many ideas in common.
