Abstract

Critic, researcher, thinker, historian and poet, Dr. Tabassum Kashmiri’s ideas and poetry have had significant impact on Urdu literature and the way in which ideas are expressed. This article studies his poetry vis-à-vis the lens of Stylistics, i.e. a branch of applied linguistics whereby texts are studied with the assumption that style itself is a linguistic choice made by the author. In this study, elements such as phonetics, syntax and semantics are observed. The theory is used to establish Kashmiri’s work as novel in terms of the stylistics employed by the author.
