Abstract

The focus of research study is to explore the bond between man and nature, reflected in the poetry of contemporary Pakistani Pashto poet Abdul Ghani Khan. The nature poetry of the poet reinforces man's connection to nature and promotes environmental awareness. His poetry has been analyzed previously from various viewpoints, but little work has been done from ecocritical and stylistic perspective. This research seeks to examine selected nature’s poetry from the poetic collection of the poet to recognize the concept of nature that he has embraced, as well as the creative and artistic qualities that his poetry contains. The paper also shows the poet's environmental consciousness that has developed cognitively involving three phases: physical, intellectual, and mystical. The thesis also examines the linguistic and literary styles in the selected poetry, using the Eco critical notions like eco centrism, symbiotic interrelatedness, and ecological consciousness. The current research addresses the critical need for literary-linguistic research into nature motifs for promotion of environmental awareness and sensibility.
