Towards Kabul

Litterateur Redefining World began its operation and published its first edition in August 2020 with K M Anthru as Managing Editor, Shajil Anthru as Honorary Chief Editor, and K M Santhosh Kumar as Executive Editor. Inspired by K M Anthru, a passionate writer of stories and literary essays who published many works in Malayalam and English, Litterateur Redefining World began its operation as a web magazine, truly international and unfolding a world, unseen and untold. K M Anthru was born on April 2, 1937. He started his literary career at 17. Though publications were a few during that time, his works found space in many of the periodicals and magazines. He started publishing books, mainly Malayalam Short stories and literary essays...
In the first edition itself, Managing Editor K M Anthru proclaimed that this is going to be one of the inimitable universal magazine in the globe. He asked all, including litterateurs, to consider all humans are simply one and not to be discriminated over languages, countries, race, creed, color or gender.
After his demise on 19 December 2020, K M Anthru Foundation instituted an International award - K M Anthru International award for Literature in 2021. The award was made up because of the magazine "Litterateur Redefining World" founded by Late K M Anthru, who gave importance to the literature which made a positive impact to the society. Within two years after its constitution, four litterateurs in the world were bestowed with this award for their literary contribution.
This edition of Litterateur RW focus on Kabul, the reason being an article appeared in https://artsforafghanistan.org/ which invited our attention to explore more about Kabul. This is an appeal by many organizations and individuals urging the United States government to do everything in its power to facilitate the departure from Afghanistan of at-risk Afghans, and to include artists, filmmakers, performers, and writers in that category.
This edition includes the arts and literature in Afghanistan from 7th and 8th century to present. The significance of Poetic Leadership Era is also discussed in detail. In the book "The Era of Zeroism," by Shajil Anthru, he stated that "Poetic Leadership shall overturn dictatorship and autocratic rule-be it by an individual or collective-in all segments of life-family, institutions and nations." In this context, the question arises to why poetic leadership is the need for this era of "Zeroism". We speak about leadership mostly from the perspective of an individual. But individual leadership is governed by the leadership form of the state. The leadership styles are presented by the "Government" or through the Government institutions.
The other writers who made this magazine memorable are Jack Foley, poet and Consulting Editor of Litterateur RW from California, Małgorzata Borzeszkowska, poet and Consulting Editor of Litterateur RW from Poland, Giacomo Cuttone, artist, painter and Consulting Editor of Litterateur RW from Italy, Antonino Contiliano, Italy, Mónika Tóth, Romania, Iolanda Leotta, Italy, Taghrid Bou Merhi, Brazil, Sajid Hussain, Pakistan, Jakima Davis, USA, Muxlisa Eshpõlatova, Uzbekistan, Sabyasachi Nazrul, Bangladesh, Ranjit K Sahu, USA, Paul Lobo Portugés, USA, Mohira Eshpo'latova, Uzbekistan and Krakun, Philippines.
This edition introduces PacePoem which is a poetic style which makes the poem meaningful by the spacing of words. While reciting the pacepoem, the modulation takes over the role of spacing. Anna Maria Dall'Olio, Italy is the poet who wrote this poetry.
Litterateur Redefining World invited to appreciate unfolding a new world, untold and fresh. A festivity of ingenuity emerges in every issue was promised which is the success of the magazine.
