It is a common assumption that the act of writing itself constitutes a form of resistance. If this proposition is accepted as accurate, it follows that the history of literature is, in fact, the history of resistance.

It is a common assumption that the act of writing itself constitutes a form of resistance. If this proposition is accepted as accurate, it follows that the history of literature is, in fact, the history of resistance. Regardless of the era in which they write or their affiliation with a particular movement, writers have consistently employed their craft to challenge the structures of power, oppression, and exploitation. However, if we consider the history of literature, we may find evidence to support this opinion, or even that resistance is an essential principle inherent in the process of writing itself.

Bertrand Russell was instrumental in the formation of the Writers' Tribunal, which was established to oppose the American invasion of Vietnam. Sartre was an outspoken opponent of the French government's actions during the Algerian War. Moreover, he declined all incentives, including the Nobel Prize, extended to writers. Such writers have been present throughout our own history. In the War of Independence of 1857, Imam Bakhsh Sahbai perished on one side, while Fazal Haq Khairabadi was sentenced to be exiled to the desolate region of Black Water, where he was subsequently executed. Conversely, writers such as Ghalib and Sir Syed endorsed the British colonial presence. The role of writers in Pakistan can be elucidated by examining the Rawalpindi Conspiracy Case and the Writers Guild. While the Rawalpindi Conspiracy case was not devoid of military exploitative intentions, it marked the beginning of efforts to suppress the independent thought of writers (especially progressives) by state power. This was exemplified by the military dictator Ayub's Ema۔
