Introducing Modernity into Afghanistan: An Analysis of Literary Compositions of Mahmud Tarzi

Bachelor thesis | Midden-Oostenstudies (BA)
Mahmud Tarzi was the first Afghan modernizer that helped to formulate the basic tenets of Afghan modernism and nationalism, through his successful news medium Seraj al-Akhbar (The torch of news). In this thesis, I will focus on Mahmud Tarzi, as a writer and journalist and how he has sought to influence the social and political modernization of Afghanistan through his literature.
