O tym produkcie
Product Information
Most Taliban fighters are Pashtuns who cherish their vibrant poetic traditions, which mirror those of song. While much has been written about the Taliban's military tactics, media strategy, and harsh treatment of women, scholars often overlook this cultural and less overt -- yet no less revealing -- political practice.

Reviews
These poems of love, war, and friendship tell us more about Afghanistan than a million news reports. Anyone claiming to be an Afghan expert should read this book before giving their next opinion., Whatever the current controversy, "Poetry of the Taliban" serves as a martial and social artifact from a broken land. Its poems are variously political and pastoral, one moment enraged and the next heavy with sorrow,New York Times At War BlogNew York Times At War Blog, By turns angry, idealistic, or cynically witty, these Taliban poets can leave none unmoved by verse that conjures up Persian metaphysics, Muslim traditions, and a Pashtun quest for honor. Indeed, as triumphs and ruination test these mujahedeens' faith in God, some even echo the shock, sense of betrayal. and despair of Britain's First World War poets., A highly original and extremely important book that sheds more light on the Taliban and its resilience than any organizational chart or force assessment. It draws attention to the crucial role aesthetics and emotions -- as opposed to resources and doctrines -- play in military organizations. As such, this may be the first poetry book of strategic significance., By turns angry, idealistic, or cynically witty, these Taliban poets leave none unmoved by verse conjuring Persian metaphysics, Muslim traditions, and a Pashtun quest for honor. Indeed, as enemies' triumphs and ruination in their mountain homeland tests these mujahedin's faith in God, some even echo the shock, sense of betrayal, and despair of Britain's First World War poets. Thanks to a clear and empathetic translation, Western readers will find a rare door to the emotions and motivations of Afghans trapped in bloody events far beyond their control, and will soon forget which side they are supposed to be on., The most shocking emotion the book inspires isn't fellow feeling with the butchers of Afghanistan; it is delight. The pleasure of Poetry of the Taliban is its most upsetting feature.... Such poetry is profoundly revealing of the psychology of our enemy. Culled from cellphones, websites and cassettes, the Poetry of the Taliban bears little, if any, relation to official al-Qaeda "literature" with its idiotic, dull, unreadably boring dogmatism. There is politics in this collection but little ideology, little talk even of Islam. The verse burns with immediacy of reality. It's full of alternately witty and grotesque bragging.... The publication of this anthology is as depressing as it is revelatory. Poetry of the Taliban is a celebration of indestructible despair, of unending destruction and resurgent beauty. It is as harrowing a portrait of Afghanistan as any piece of reporting I have read., A remarkable and important work. In Poetry of the Taliban, we see that within the movement there are warriors with wounded hearts, lyrical souls, and a passionate love for language and ideas., A welcome addition to the growing, largely non-fiction, archive about the Taliban. Much of the poetry here appeals to the heart rather than the head, engendering sympathy for the speakers' plight. That these poems put us in this uncomfortable place is the most impressive achievement of the anthology., Whatever the current controversy, "Poetry of the Taliban" serves as a martial and social artifact from a broken land. Its poems are variously political and pastoral, one moment enraged and the next heavy with sorrow,, These are poems of love and war and friendship and tell us more about Afghanistan than a million news reports. Anybody claiming to be an Afghan expert should read this book before giving their next opinion., A brave and useful project... offers a perspective on the conflict through the Other's eyes, something worth more than a library full of cold analysis., There is much shock and some awe in this mixed collection, and the editors are to be applauded for beginning "our" education in this troubled and troubling literature.Times Higher Education, A highly original and extremely important book which by making the Taliban's poems available in English arguably sheds more light on the Taliban and its resilience than could any organisational chart or force assessment. More significantly, it draws attention to the crucial role that aesthetics and emotions -- as opposed to resources and doctrines -- play in military organisations. As such, this may be the first poetry book of strategic significance., A remarkable and important book that reveals a hitherto concealed side to the harshly perceived Afghan Taliban. In Poetry of the Taliban , we see that within the movement there are warriors who have wounded hearts, lyrical souls, and a passionate love of language and ideas., There is much shock and some awe in this mixed collection, and the editors are to be applauded for beginning "our" education in this troubled and troubling literature., Whatever the current controversy, "Poetry of the Taliban" serves as a martial and social artifact from a broken land.

This extraordinary collection is remarkable as a literary project -- uncovering a seam of war poetry few will know ever existed, and presenting to us for the first time the black turbaned Wilfred Owens of Wardak. But it also an important political project: humanising and giving voice to the aspirations aesthetics, emotions and dreams of the fighters of a much-caricatured and still little-understood resistance movement that is about to defeat yet another foreign occupation., [ Poetry of the Taliban ] allows us first-hand access to the sentiments of a people the West still knows too little about, even after more than eleven years of occupation. With the NATO troop pullout less than two years away this candid look in the hearts of Afghans may be overdue. But it's not too late., Afghanistan has a rich and ancient tradition of epic poetry celebrating resistance to foreign invasion and occupation. This extraordinary collection is remarkable as a literary project -- uncovering a seam of war poetry few will know ever existed. Yet it is also an important political project, humanizing and giving voice to the aspirations, aesthetics, emotions, and dreams of the fighters of a much-caricatured and little-understood resistance movement about to defeat yet another foreign occupation., This is an essential work. In compiling the poetry of the Taliban, these young scholars have preserved the intimate and the expansive, ranging from pastoral imagery of the Afghan countryside, to satire on global politics and rich references to Afghan, Muslim and biblical history. In the process they go beyond humanising the Taliban towards understanding them. The same Taliban, known to the world as cultural morons, turn out to have inspired a corpus of poetry which links to the finest civilisational accomplishments of Pashto, Farsi, Urdu and Arabic.... If anyone still wonders on which cultural resources the Taliban drew to inspire a people to resist a dull global plan to modernise them, read on., An essential work.
