The Purpose and Goal of Renounced Poetry and Allama Iqbal’s Renounced Poetry

Abstract

In this part of the paper the concept of renounced poetry, reasons for renouncing their own literary work of poets, and their purpose and goal are discussed by the researcher. In the second part, those features that caused the renouncement of certain poetry of our national poet Allama Iqbal are highlighted. On the one side, this reality has been highlighted in a way that as in the early era of Urdu poetry, the linguists rejected a few words (originating from other languages) to make Urdu language courteous, elegant, and transparent.  In the same way, some poets because of some reasons renounced and disowned their work. On the other side, the researcher has discussed the renounced work of Allama Iqbal to which he has described the causes of renouncement.  Including these causes, the work of his youth age has been discussed which is dominated by the color of old traditional Urdu poetry, which later, on the ideological and intellectual basis was rejected and it was included in his renounced poetic cluster.
