M. Musa♥JALALUDDIN RUMI BIOGRAPHY



JALAUDDIN RUMI BIOGRAPHY
By Muhammad Musa Pradana

          Mewlana Rum iHe is Mewlana Jalaluddin Rumi who was born in Afghanistan 1207. His birthplace andnative language both indicate a Persian heritage. He lived most of his life under the Sultanate of Rum, where he produced his works and died in 1273 AD. A Persian literary renaissance (in the8th/9th century) started in regions of Sistan,Khorasanand Transoxianaand by the 10th/11thcentury, it reinforced thePersian languageas the preferred literary and cultural language in thePersian Islamic world.
 Rumi's importance is considered to transcend national and ethnic borders.His original works are widely read in their original language across the Persian-speaking world.Translations of his works are very popular in other countries. His poetry has influenced Persian literatureas well as Urdu,Punjabiand other Pakistani languages written in Perso/Arabic scripte.g.PashtoandSindhi. His poems have been widely translated into many of the world's languages and transposed into various formats. In 2007, he was described as the "most popular  poet in America.
Rumi's works are written in Persian and his Mathnawi remains one of the purest literary glories of Persia, and one of the crowning glories of the Persian language.His original works are widely read today in their original language across the Persian-speaking world (Iran, Tajikistan, Afghanistan and parts of Persian speaking Central Asia and the Caucasus) Translations of his works are very popular, most notably in Turkey, Azerbaijan, the United States and South Asia. His poetry has influenced Persian literature as well as Turkish, Punjabi, Urdu and some other Iranian, Turkic and Indic languages written in Perso-Arabic script e.g. Pashto, Ottoman Turkish, Chagatai and Sindhi.
                He is widely known by the sobriquet Mawlānā/Molānā (Persian: مولانا‎ Persian pronunciation [moulɒːnɒː]) in Iran and popularly known as Mevlânâ in Turkey (also, Turkish: Celâleddin Muhammed Belhi, Celâleddin Muhammed Rûmi, and Mevlevi in Modern Turkish). According to the authoritative Rumi biographer Franklin Lewis of the University of Chicago, "the Anatolian peninsula which had belonged to the Byzantine, or eastern Roman empire, had only relatively recently been conquered by Muslims and even when it came to be controlled by Turkish Muslim rulers, it was still known to Arabs, Persians and Turks as the geographical area of Rum.
 As such, there are a number of historical person ages born in or associated with Anatolia known as Rumi, a word borrowed from Arabic literally meaning “Roman,” in which context Roman refers to subjects of the Byzantine Empire or simply to people living in or things associated with Anatolia. In Muslim countries, therefore, Jalal al-Din is not generally known as "Rumi". The terms Mawlavi (Persian) and Mevlevi (Turkish) which mean "having to do with the master" are more often used for him.
The Masnavi weaves fables, scenes from everyday life, Qur'anic revelations and exegesis, and metaphysics into a vast and intricate tapestry. In the East, it is said of him that he was "not a prophet — but surely, he has brought a scripture.
Rumi believed passionately in the use of music, poetry and dance as a path for reaching God. For Rumi, music helped devotees to focus their whole being on the divine and to do this so intensely that the soul was both destroyed and resurrected. It was from these ideas that the practice of whirling Dervishes developed into a ritual form. His teachings became the base for the order of the Mevlevi which his son Sultan Walad organized. Rumi encouraged Sama, listening to music and turning or doing the sacred dance.
In the Mevlevi tradition, samāʿ represents a mystical journey of spiritual ascent through mind and love to the Perfect One. In this journey, the seeker symbolically turns towards the truth, grows through love, abandons the ego, finds the truth and arrives at the Perfect. The seeker then returns from this spiritual journey, with greater maturity, to love and to be of service to the whole of creation without discrimination with regard to beliefs, races, classes and nations.
Rumi was an evolutionary thinker in the sense that he believed that the spirit after devolution from the divine Ego undergoes an evolutionary process by which it comes nearer and nearer to the same divine Ego. All matter in the universe obeys this law and this movement is due to an inbuilt urge which Rumi calls "love" to evolve and seek enjoinment with the divinity from which it has emerged. Evolution into a human being from an animal is only one stage in this process. The doctrine of the Fall of Adam is reinterpreted as the devolution of the Ego from the universal ground of divinity and is a universal, cosmic phenomenon.
The French philosopher Henri Bergson's idea of life being creative and evolutionary is similar, though unlike Bergson, Rumi believes that there is a specific goal to the process: the attainment of God. For Rumi, God is the ground as well as the goal of all existence.
However Rumi need not be considered a biological evolutionary creationist. In view of the fact that Rumi lived hundreds of years before Darwin, and was least interested in scientific theories, it is probable to conclude that he does not deal with biological evolution at all. Rather he is concerned with the spiritual evolution of a human being: Man not conscious of God is akin to an animal and true consciousness makes him divine. Nicholson has seen this as a Neo-Platonic doctrine: the universal soul working through the various spheres of being, a doctrine introduced into Islam by Muslim philosophers like Al Farabi and being related at the same time to Ibn Sina's idea of love as the magnetically working power by which life is driven into an upward trend.

A MOMENT OF HAPPINESS
A moment of happiness
You and I sitting on the verandah
Apparently two, but one in soul, you and I.
We feel flowing water of life here,
You and I, with the garden’s beauty
And the birds singing.
The stars will be watching us,
And we will show them
What it is to be a thin crescent moon.
You and I unselfed, will be together,
Indifferent to indle speculation, You and I.
The parrots of heaven will be cracking sugar
As we laugh together, You and I.
In one upon from this earth,
And in another form in a timeless sweet land.




In Afghanistan, Rumi is known as Mawlānā, in Turkey as Mevlâna, and in Iran as Molavī.

At the proposal of the Permanent Delegations of Afghanistan, Iran, and Turkey, and as approved by its Executive Board and General Conference in conformity with its mission of “constructing in the minds of men the defences of peace”, UNESCO was associated with the celebration, in 2007, of the eight hundredth anniversary of Rumi's birth.
The commemoration at UNESCO itself took place on 6 September 2007 UNESCO issued a medal in Rumi's name in the hope that it would prove an encouragement to those who are engaged in research on and dissemination of Rumi's ideas and ideals, which would, in turn, enhance the diffusion of the ideals of UNESCO.
The Afghan Ministry of Culture and Youth established a national committee which organized an international seminar to celebrate the birth and life of the great ethical philosopher and world-renowned poet. This grand gathering of the intellectuals, diplomats, and followers of Mewlana was held in Kabul and in Balkh, the Mewlana's place of birth.
On 30 September 2007, Iranian school bells were rung throughout the country in honor of Mewlana. Also in that year, Iran held a Rumi Week from 26 October to 2 November. An international ceremony and conference were held in Tehran; the event was opened by the Iranian president and the chairman of the Iranian parliament. Scholars from twenty-nine countries attended the events, and 450 articles were presented at the conference.
Iranian musician Shahram Nazeri was awarded the Légion d'honneur and Iran's House of Music Award in 2007 for his renowned works on Rumi masterpieces. 2007 was declared as the "International Rumi Year" by UNESCO.
Also on 30 September 2007, Turkey celebrated Rumi’s eight-hundredth birthday with a giant Whirling Dervish ritual performance of the samāʿ, which was televised using forty-eight cameras and broadcast live in eight countries. Ertugrul Gunay, of the Ministry of Culture and Tourism, stated, "Three hundred dervishes are scheduled to take part in this ritual, making it the largest performance of sama in history.

Mawlana Rumi Review
The "Mawlana Rumi Review” is published annually by The Centre for Persian and Iranian Studies at the University of Exeter in collaboration with The Rumi Institute, Nicosia, Cyprus, and Archetype Books, Cambridge.The first volume was published in 2010 and it has come out annually since then. According to the principal editor of the journal, Leonard Lewisohn: "Although a number of major Islamic poets easily rival the likes of Dante, Shakespeare and Milton in importance and output, they still enjoy only a marginal literary fame in the West because the works of Arabic and Persian thinkers, writers and poets are considered as negligible, frivolous, tawdry sideshows beside the grand narrative of the Western Canon. It is the aim of the Mawlana Rumi Review to redress this carelessly inattentive approach to world literature, which is something far more serious than a minor faux pas committed by the Western literary imagination.

                                                 WHO IS RUDYARD YOSEPH KIPLING ?
(1865-1936)
By nissya rizky ariesta (61413026)





Rudyard Yoseph Kipling was born in Bombay on December 3rd 1865 and died on January 18th 1936 in London . He is an English short-story writer, poet, and novelist. He received the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1907. He has strong view in colonial, showed from his poem on the " Ballad of East and West " . This poem is very great fame despite the fact that more Kipling swoop on transcendental matters not on the physical conditions between the western and eastern man . But the attitude of colonial thinking is manifested in the poem can make Kipling called western spokesperson in defending colonialism . Kipling's childhood was very depressed due to get a good education , his parents send Kipling and his sister to England . He lived with the family retired navy very tight and read fiction is considered a sin . But fortunately he got a full month in a year to vacation at her aunt , Mrs. Burne Jones . At his aunt's house he can develop his talent in reading,  writing and drawing . His childhood experiences poured in Baa Baa Black Sheep . In 1878 he entered the United Srvice Divonshire College , where he received much of pushed from his headmaster in compose . A number of poems from his childhood and his father published a number of stories published in the teenage years and Co.
In 1882 he returned to India and in Allahabad he holds weekly Gazzete Civil and Military . His pervasion experiences collected in Departmental Ditties  ( 1886) , Soldiers Three ( 1888 ) and Palin Tales from the Hill ( 1888 ) . These writings ever published in fragmentation . In 1889 he returned to England and has been known as a man of letters . 1891 published The Light that Failed and published in 1892 Barrack Room Ballad and the same year he married a girl named Caroline Starr Bolestier America and lived in Vermont , where he wrote The Jungle Book 18940 and Captain Courageous (1897 ) .
Because of his disagreements with the law , Kipling returned from America to England . In  1901 he published his novel, Kim , in 1902  The Just So Stories and in 1904 he published Puck of Pook 's Hill . In 1907 he received the Nobel Prize for Literature, the first Englishman to be so honoured. In South Africa, where he spent much time, he was given a house by Cecil Rhodes, the diamond magnate and South African statesman. Previously in 1897 he published a warning Recessional imprealism development, life experience in three continents , Asia , Europe and America wrote in From Sea to Sea . Near of his end life he wrote an autobiography  that written by him with title Something of Myself.
Well let’s talk about his father. Kipling’s father is John Lockwood Kipling. He is an artist and scholar who influence his son’s works. rator of the Lahore museum, and is described presiding over this “wonder house” in the first chapter of Kim, Rudyard's most famous novel. His mother is Alice Macdonald two of whose sisters married the highly successful 19th-century painters Sir Edward Burne-Jones and Sir Edward Poynter, while a third married Alfred Baldwin and became the mother of Stanley Baldwin, later prime minister.

You know a man never be complete without any great woman. The Kipling’s wife is aroline Balestier, the sister of Wolcott Balestier, an American publisher and writer with whom hehad collaborated in The Naulahka(1892).
They moved to the United States and settled in Vermont. But unfortunately their neighbors couldn’t accept their attitude and manners. So that they decided to went back to the England in 1896. Kipling published his well known works in novel in the 1890s. The Light that Failed (1890) is his novel that present a story about a painter who getting blind and rejected by the woman who really he loves. Captains Courageous(1897), in spite of its sense of adventure, is often considered a poor novel because of the excessive descriptive writing. Kim(1901), although presented a children's book, must be considered a classic. The Jungle Books(1894 and 1895) is a very great collection of stories linked by poems for children. These books give proof that Kipling excelled at telling a story but was inconsistent in producing balanced, cohesive novels.

In 1907 he received the Nobel Prize for Literature,  the first Englishman to be so honoured  in South Africa. It’s the place where he spent much time, he was given a house by Cecil Rhodes, a famous person in  South African.This association fostered Kipling's imperialist persuasions, which were to grow stronger with the years. These convictions are not to be dismissed in a word; they were bound up with a genuine sense of a civilizing mission that required every Englishman, or, more broadly, every white man, to bring European culture to the heathen natives of the uncivilized world. Kipling's poems and stories were extraordinarily popular in the late 19th and early 20th century. But after the first World War,  his reputation as a serious writer suffered through his being widely viewed as a jingoistic (someone who like war) imperialist.

Rudyard Kipling died of a hemorrhage on 18 January 1936 in London, and his ashes are interred in the Poet’s Corner of Westminster Abbey, London, England near to T. S. Eliot. Today his study and the gardens at ‘The Elm’ are preserved by the Rottingdean Preservation Society, and Bateman’s is held by the National Trust. The Kipling Society was founded in 1927. From his poem “Recessional”—Lest we forget is now a popular epitaph used by many including the Commonwealth War Graves Commission (est.1917) which Kipling worked as literary adviser for during World War I.

God of our fathers, known of old,
Lord of our far-flung battle-line,
Beneath whose awful Hand we hold
Dominion over palm and pine -
Lord God of Hosts, be with us yet,
Lest we forget - lest we forget!

One of his best works is The Jungle Book. The tales in the book (and also those in The Second Jungle Book which followed in 1895, and which include five another stories about Mowgli) are fables, using animal in human being manner to give moral lessons. The verses of The Law of the Jungle, for example, lay down rules for the safety of individuals, families and communities. Kipling put in them nearly everything he knew or "heard or dreamed about the Indian jungle. In this book because of its moral tone, then it used as a motivational book by the Cub Scouts in junior element of the Scouting movement. The book became universe since Kipling approve the direct petition from Robert Baden-Powell, founder of the Scouting movement. Robert Baden-Powell was the person who originally asked for the author's permission to use the Memory Game from Kim in his plan to develop the morale and fitness of working-class youths in cities. Akela, the head wolf in The Jungle Book, has become a senior figure in the movement, the name was traditionally adopted by the leader of each Cub Scout pack.

He also has many poetries, one of my favorite is Blue Roses. Blue Roses is a poem from Rudyard Kipling's book Light That Failed Memoirs and was collected in his Songs from Books (Macmillan, 1914).  I don’t know why but I think he seldom make a kind of romance poem. So in my thought it is something different in his works.

Blue Roses
     The Light that Failed
                                                                                                     


    Roses red and roses white
    Plucked I for my love's delight.
    She would none of all my posies--
    Bade me gather her blue roses.

    Half the world I wandered through,
    Seeking where such flowers grew.
    Half the world unto my quest
    Answered me with laugh and jest.

    Home I came at wintertide,
    But my silly love had died
    Seeking with her latest breath
    Roses from the arms of Death.

    It may be beyond the grave
    She shall find what she would have.
    Mine was but an idle quest--
    Roses white and red are best!
