Ghalib (1797-1869), nobleman, wit, poet and litterateur, was the last great literary figure produced by Mughal India. The papers in this volume present aspects of the man, the poet and his age as they appear through the eyes of eminent scholars. The aim is to make Ghalib accessible to that large audience which is aware of his greatness but can approach him only through the medium of English.
