Kriśan Candar
1914‐77
He is one of the most noteworthy writers in Indian Urdu literature since Premchand. Born in Wazirabad, Punjab, he spent his childhood in Kashmir. He studied English literature and law in Lahore, and began writing novels in earnest at the age of 23. He is considered a progressive writer, and his writing career moved from an early romanticist inclination to the turmoil of the 1947 partition of India and Pakistan, focusing on works that criticize political ideology, social systems, religion, and tradition, producing shocking works such as the short story collection Ham Vaśśī Hain (1947).

インドのウルドゥー文学界でプレームチャンド以来の最も注目すべき作家の一人。パンジャーブのワジーラーバードで生まれ,少年期をカシミールで過ごした。ラホールで英文学,法律学を修めた彼は23歳の頃から本格的に小説を書き始めた。進歩主義作家と規定される彼の執筆活動は,初期のロマン主義的傾向を経て1947年のインド・パキスタン分離独立時の騒乱に直面し,政治思想や社会体制,宗教や伝統に対する批判を主題とする作品に集中し,短編集《われわれは野蛮人だHam Vaśśī Hain》(1947)のような衝撃的作品を生んだ。
