{"product_id":"rusi-sanskriti-udbhav-aur-vinash","title":"Rusi Sanskriti : Udbhav Aur Vinash","description":"\u003cp\u003eSyed Haider Raza, A Pioneer Of Indian Modernism In The Arts, Was Not Only A Tireless And Unique Painter But Also Had A Deep Interest In Other Arts, Especially Poetry And Thought. He Considered Hindi His Mother Tongue, And Although He Had A Deep Knowledge And Command Of French And English, He Remained Immersed In Hindi, Even After Spending Sixty Years In France. It Is No Accident That In The Latter Half Of His Artistic Career, All His Paintings Were Titled In Hindi. He Is Perhaps The Only One Among The WorldS Leading Painters Of The 20Th And 21St Centuries Who Inscribed Lines From Sanskrit, Hindi, And Urdu Poetry In Devanagari On Over A Hundred Of His Paintings. For Years, Whenever I Would Spend Time With Him In Paris, At His Insistence, I Would Take With Me Newly Published Books Of Hindi Poetry: His Collection, Now Part Of The Raza Archives In Delhi, Included A Large Collection Of Hindi Poetry. One Of RazaS Concerns Was The Lack Of Good Books In Hindi On Many Subjects. Especially Regarding The Arts And Ideas, He Wanted Us To Take Some Initiative. After His Death In 2016 At The Age Of Ninety-Four And A Half, The Raza Foundation, Honoring His Wishes, Has Initiated The Publication Of A New Kind Of Books In Hindi In The Form Of The Raza Book Series, Which Includes The Re-Publication Of Some Previously Unavailable Books. These Include Books On Gandhi, Cultural Contemplation, Dialogue, Hindi Translations Of Works From Indian Languages, Especially Art Contemplation, And Poetry. From The Preface: Poet Kamlesh Was One Of The Most Educated People Of Our Time, Although He Never Claimed Any Scholarship. Beyond Literature, His Interests Ranged Across Many Disciplines Of Culture And Thought, Such As Philosophy, Psychology, And Anthropology. This Is A Unique Book That Presents The Story Of The Rise And Fall Of Russian Culture Through Great Russian Poets. It Contains Not Only Ideological Analyses Of The Poets But Also Hindi Translations Of Their Poems. There Is No Other Example Of This Study Of So Many Great Poets Of A Foreign Language And The Culture Of A Country Through Them, Not Only In Hindi But Perhaps Even In Any Other Indian Language. We Are Gladly Presenting This Unique Book As Part Of The Raza Book Series.
