Director Punjab University Urdu Development and Translation Centre Prof DrZahidMunir Amir on Monday presented his travelogue to Punjab Caretaker Chief Minister MohsinNaqvi. ZahidMunir’s presented newly published travelogue ‘Italy an Italian Odyssey’ to the chief minister during a meeting with him on Monday.
Pakistan and Italy were bound in deep ties of friendship, but despite this, the people of Pakistan know a little about their friend Italy. Civilization and cultural distance can be removed by making the people of both countries aware of each other’s literature. Literature represents the common feelings of human societies, therefore, no matter what region it belongs to, sensitive minds consider it as an expression of their own feelings.
ZahidMunir has discovered the sources of Urdu language literature in Italy and brought them to Pakistani readers by means of his travelogue.
