Geographical and natural factors, calamities like storms, rains and floods also play a role in shaping and sustaining it. Cultures like Harappa and Mohenjodur also suffered similar disasters after their rise. Culture is an expression of the intellectual and material manifestations of a human group found in a region or region. Intellectual matters influence the inner and outer, teach the art of living and maintaining relationships; they shape the entire affairs of festivals, fairs, and occasions of life and death. In the same way, internal and external, that is, thought and the patterns of conducting affairs based on it, which a group forms, the patterns which are called traditions or customs, also teach it to the coming generations for their defense and protection. As if society is a whole and a collective process in which individuals follow a fixed course of action. This approach works on both internal and external levels equally and at the same time. Culture is influenced by many factors that bend and break it along with them. Time and circumstances, disasters, calamities and ideological factors ie politics and social movements all arrange the formation and order of culture. Culture continues to change and evolve due to these factors. The image of Punjab found in Ashfaq Ahmed's fictions (including Phalkari) sheds light on the Punjab of the twentieth century

In Persian poetry, the charm of the ghazal enhances its beauty so much that it elevates the popularity of poetry to its peak.

This paper sheds light on the tradition of ghazal through the words of classical Persian poets, which have opened the doors to new possibilities in poetry. It has also been observed that Urdu poets greatly admire Persian poetry, particularly in the chapter of Ghazal. This highlights the importance of Persian poetry and strengthens the tradition of its influence on Urdu Ghazal
Unveiling Femininity: Exploring Women’s Representation in Selected Khowar Language Proverbs from District Chitral, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan
Proverbs, referred to as linguistic nuggets, phrases, or pearls of wisdom, are brief and memorable utterances that communicate a small fragment of insight, truth, or counsel derived from the shared human experience. Proverbs have historically served as a means of comprehending a specific cultural community’s practices, traditions, values, goals, beliefs, and other aspects. This study explores the profound Chitrali culture by critically analysing several Khowar sayings to uncover their portrayal of women. This research provides a qualitative and textual analysis of 42 proverbs, using a purposeful sampling technique to select proverbs focusing on feminine themes. The sayings have been derived from Matalan Gurzain, a compilation of Khowar Proverbs authored by Afsar Ali Khan, and from a compilation by Degener (2022) and various oral sources. This study uses Feminist Critical Discourse Analysis (FCDA) as a novel approach to examine the representation of femininity. The findings indicate that the majority of proverbs portray women in a negative light.
