Foreword To The Book 'A History Of Panjabi Literature  (Vol. I)' By Sant Singh Sekhon 

FOREWORD

A History of Panjabi Literature Volume One by Professor Sant Singh Sekhon is a welcome addition to the existing studies in English of Panjabi Literature. It carries forward and further enriches the tradition, initiated by Dr. Mohan Singh Diwana who had blazed the trail in this domain. Professor Sant Singh Sekhon has brought his ripe and comprehensive vision to bear upon this project. The introductory chapter brings into focus the background of Panjabi Literature and presents a brief survey of its growth and development. The book offers fresh perspectives on the panorama of the Panjabi Literature, chronicled in this volume.

I trust this book will create an audience in the vast English-knowing world and extend the frontiers of the study of Panjabi Literature.
