Journal Title: International Journal of Interdisciplinary and Multidisciplinary Studies (IJIMS) - Year 2015, Vol 2, Issue 8
Abstract
The paper analyses the meaning of a sufi and his struggles against the status quo. It also investigates the use of female transgressive voice by the poets. Various examples would include myths of Heer-Ranjha and Sassi-Punnu. The paper investigates the writings of various sufi poets who used a female persona to project a non-conformist voice against the hegemonic structures.
