- W3195507773 abstract "The following essay deals with literature in Afghanistan during the occupation of the country by the Soviet Union in the fi nal years of the Cold War (1979-1989). The Afghan confl ict during this eventful decade was perpetuated by the policies and apparatuses of the Kabul regime and its Soviet patrons locked in a devastating confrontation with the armed Mujahideen forces supported by the United States and its regional allies, principally Pakistan and Saudi Arabia.1 The essay sheds light on how literature refl ected upon ten years of a violence that proved only the harbinger of a further two decades of violence that has engulfed the nation to the present day. One may suppose that the absolute ideological rivalry during the 1980s between the regime and the opposition engendered a cultural climate in which two irreconcilable objectives and confl icting discourses were competing for absolute dominance. While this conjecture is valid to some extent, the discussion that follows aims to establish that literary production was not limited to a clearcut binary division along such discursive lines as emergent versus residual, revolutionary versus regressive, o cially sanctioned versus dissenting, conformist versus resistant or pro-communist versus pro-Islamist, but included a crucial ‘third wave’ literature; that is, a substantial corpus of literary works that may at fi rst appear marginal in the larger political and ideological polarisation of Afghan cultural and intellectual discourse. This subterranean, and essentially dissident, literature, which transcended the narrow channelling of the creative imagination, can be of enormous interest to both literary critics and cultural historians.2 It is worth mentioning at the outset that the examples in this essay are drawn from works by Afghan writers and poets in the Persian (Dari) language; the genealogy, morphology and thematology of the Pashtu literature in Afghanistan during the 1979-1989 crisis di ered little from those of Persian." @default.
