For the past ten years, the Murty Classical Library of India (published by Harvard University Press) has sought to do for classic Indian works what the famous Loeb Classical Library has done for Ancient Greek and Roman texts. In this episode, Jacke talks to editorial director Sharmila Sen about the joys and challenges of sifting through thousands of years of Indic works and bringing literary treasures to the general public, as well as a new book, Ten Indian Classics, which highlights ten of the fifty works published in the collection so far.

The British-Indian novelist Sir Salman Rushdie has faced his alleged attacker in court, after he was stabbed multiple times in 2022 during a public lecture in New York state. Hadi Matar, accused of assault and attempted murder, denies the charges. The author is no stranger to threats: in 1989, Iran's Supreme Leader called for his death, after deeming his novel The Satanic Verses blasphemous. Will this attack on Rushdie, a symbol of free speech himself, threaten freedom of expression?This podcast was brought to you thanks to the support of readers of The Times and The Sunday Times.

Salman Rushdie has been getting death threats for more than 35 years. The Indian-born British-American novelist sparked outrage with his book "The Satanic Verses" in 1988. It was declared blasphemous by many Muslims, so much so that Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khomeini issued a fatwa against him, calling for his death. In August 2022, the Booker Prize-winning author was stabbed multiple times on stage in New York state, leaving him blind in one eye. His attacker is now on trial for attempted murder. The book "Knife" is Rushdie's account of what happened. He spoke about the work at the 20th edition of the Hay Festival Cartagena in Colombia, where he sat down with Léa Hurel from FRANCE 24's Spanish channel.

Dr. Zuhdi Jasser, Founder and President of the American Islamic Forum for Democracy, and former Republican congressional candidate for Arizona's 4th District, joins the show on the phone to talk about the New Years Day terror attack which claimed the lives of 14 in New Orleans, Louisiana. Political correctness is destroying our ability to report factual news stories. Producer David Doll discusses his upcoming weekend plans. President Biden previously called white supremacy the most dangerous terrorist threat to the nation.

In 2022, the author Salman Rushdie was onstage at a public event when a man ran up and stabbed him. His new memoir, Knife, delves into that moment when Rushdie thought he was going to die — and everything that's come after, as he's healed from the attack. In today's episode, he speaks at length with NPR's Mary Louise Kelly about how the miracles found in his fiction might've manifested themselves in his real life, how his wife – poet Rachel Eliza Griffiths – has helped him move forward, and how writing about that experience became a way for him to fight back.To listen to Book of the Day sponsor-free and support NPR's book coverage, sign up for Book of the Day+ at plus.npr.org/bookofthedayLearn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

Salman Rushdie, author of more than 20 books, spoke with me in 2019 about his “Quichotte: A Novel,” a  contemporary story about chaotic political times that live on today.    He takes readers on a road journey across America in a Chevy Cruze.  Rushdie's road traveler, Quichotte, is a simple man who has watched too much television.     Perhaps because of that, it's an anything-can-happen sort of trip sprinkled with cyber-spies, opioids, science fiction, racism of course, all mixed in with heavy doses of family ties real or imagined.    Born in India, mostly educated in England, and a current long-time resident of New York City, Rushdie's published work includes novels, books of non-fiction, a memoir and children's books. 

Salman Rushdie's "Knife: Meditations After an Attempted Murder," has been nominated in the nonfiction category as part of this year's National Book Awards, which will take place in mid-November. This week, we are running Rushdie's conversation with Ezra Klein from earlier this year. Unlock full access to New York Times podcasts and explore everything from politics to pop culture.

One of the world's greatest novelists, Salman Rushdie has won many prestigious international literary awards and was knighted for services to literature in 2007. He won the Booker Prize in 1981 for Midnight's Children, a novel that was also twice voted as the best of all-time Booker winners. In 1989 Iranian leader Ayatollah Khomeini declared that Rushdie's fourth novel, The Satanic Verses, was blasphemous and pronounced a death sentence against its author. For over a decade he lived in hiding with close security, a period of his life that he wrote about in the 2012 memoir Joseph Anton. His most recent book Knife details the horrific stabbing he survived in 2022.Talking to John Wilson, Salman Rushdie recalls his childhood in Bombay, and the folk tales and religious fables he grew up with. He chooses Indian independence and partition in 1947 as one of the defining moments of his creative life, a period that formed the historical backdrop to Midnight's Children. He discusses how, having first moved to England as a schoolboy and then to New York after the fatwa, the subject of migration has recurred throughout much of his work, including The Satanic Verses. Rushdie also explains how "surrealism, fabulism and mythical storytelling” are such an influence on his work, with particular reference to his 1999 novel The Ground Beneath Her Feet which was inspired by the ancient Greek tale of Orpheus and Eurydice. As Rushdie says, "truth in art can be arrived at through many doors”.Producer: Edwina PitmanArchive used:BBC News, 12 Aug 2022 Newsnight, BBC2, 12 Aug 2022 BBC Sound archive, India: Transfer of Power, 15 August 1947 Nehru: Man of Two Worlds, BBC1, 27 Feb 1962 Midnight's Children, Book at Bedtime, BBC Radio 4, 27 August 1997 Advert, Fresh Cream Cakes, 1979 BBC News, 14 Feb 1989 The World At One, BBC Radio 4, 14 Feb 1989 BBC News, 28 May 1989 Today, BBC Radio 4, 27 April 1990 Clip from Curb Your Enthusiasm, Season 9, episode 3

Lo scrittore Rushdie al Salone del Libro di Torino: il romanzo sul coltello

Salman Rushdie, l'auteur des "Versets Sataniques", est la cible d'une fatwa des mollahs iraniens depuis 1989. Le 12 août 2022, un fanatique islamiste poignardait l'écrivain d'une douzaine de coups de couteau. Aujourd'hui Salman Rushdie a perdu son oeil droit et l'usage de sa main gauche. Il raconte l'attentat dont il a été victime et son douloureux retour à la vie dans "Le couteau" qu'il est venu présenter à Paris. Rushdie le résilient se confie au micro de Bernard Lehut avec lucidité et humour sur l'amour, qui l'a sauvé, celui de sa femme, les séquelles physiques et psychologiques de son agression, la peur, la vie de nouveau sous haute protection policière, le pouvoir des mots plus fort que celui d'un couteau et il conclut l'entretien exceptionnellement en français.

Host Neal Pollack is full of self-righteous and justified rage this week at the actions of his fellow PEN America members, who absolutely refuse to participate in awards ceremonies or the World Voices Festival until the Zionist menace is eradicated from this Earth. Pollack and BFG contributor Sharyn Vane go off on PEN members in this week's podcast episode, as writers are more concerned with trendy social-justice concerns than freedom of speech, which really should be their primary concern. They sound like college sophomores, not published authors. It's an outrageous trend that needs immediate correction.Pollack also reviews 'Knife,' the new memoir from Salman Rushdie about his near-fatal stabbing at the hands of an ignorant jihadist. While Pollack admires Rushdie's description of the attack and the resulting medical trauma, and has much respect for him as an outspoken defender of free speech, he also thinks Rushdie isn't hard enough on his fellow PEN America members, who are a real menace to the values that Rushdie supposedly stands for and holds so dear. Maybe you're seeing a theme to this week's show.But for dessert, Stephen Garrett joins Neal on the podcast to discuss 'Challengers,' the new tennis melodrama from director Luca Guadagnino. Zendaya, Mike Faist, and Josh O'Connor burn up the screen as a racket-based love triangle. Neal and Stephen both love the script, the performances, and the general adult-drama vibe of the picture. Neal, as always, has trouble with the non-linear narrative structure. Stephen got a little tired of the aggressive musical cues. But you can forgive Challengers its little sins, because overall, the movie is a lot of fun, and allows us to forget for a while that contemporary "writers" hate freedom of speech and sound like a bunch of Maoist propagandists.Enjoy the tennis movie! Enjoy our show!

Det här är en berättelse om ett religiöst krig mot en bestseller, som kostat människor livet. Nya avsnitt från P3 ID hittar du först i Sveriges Radio Play. Den framgångsrike indiskfödde författaren fick i början av 80-talet ett sensationellt genomslag med sin roman Midnattsbarnen. Han blev känd som en uppburen intellektuell debattör tills publiceringen av Satansverserna, som skapade protester över hela världen och gjorde Salman till en bricka i ett storpolitiskt spel. Han tvingades hålla sig gömd under många år efter att iranske ayatollan Khomeni utfärdat en Fatwa, en uppmaning om att världens muslimer ska mörda Rushdie och människor kopplade till hans nya roman Satansverserna. I augusti 2022 är det som att Salmans förflutna hinner ikapp honom, när han utsätts för en knivattack. Det här är en historia om den intellektuella provokatören som blivit en symbol för yttrandefrihetens gränser. Avsnittet är gjort våren 2024 av produktionsbolaget DIST.I avsnittet medverkar Expressens kulturchef Victor Malm, journalisten och författaren Ulrika Knutson och Rouzbeh Parsi som är programchef vid Mellanöstern- och Nordafrikaprogrammet vid Utrikespolitiska Institutet.Programledare: Vendela LundbergAvsnittsmakare och reporter: Carl-Johan UlvenäsLjudmix: Fredrik NilssonLjudklippen i programmet är hämtade från Pathe, Sveriges Radio, Sveriges Television, BBC, Deutsche Welle, BBC, NBC, ABC, CBS, France24, Le Monde, The Telegraph, Universal, HBO, CNN, TVO, The Booker Prizes, ICA, AP, AFP.

Celebrated writer Salman Rushdie was subjected to a savage knife attack in 2022. The attack came 33-years after the Supreme Leader of Iran issued a fatwa calling for him to be killed, in protest at his novel The Satanic Verses. In his new book, Knife, Rushdie recounts the events of that day, and his ‘miraculous' recovery.

Salman Rushdie's 1988 novel, “The Satanic Verses,” made him the target of Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, who denounced the book as blasphemous and issued a fatwa calling for his assassination. Rushdie spent years trying to escape the shadow the fatwa cast on him, and for some time, he thought he succeeded. But in 2022, an assailant attacked him onstage at a speaking engagement in western New York and nearly killed him.“I think now I'll never be able to escape it. No matter what I've already written or may now write, I'll always be the guy who got knifed,” he writes in his new memoir, “Knife: Meditations After an Attempted Murder.”In this conversation, I asked Rushdie to reflect on his desire to escape the fatwa; the gap between the reputation of his novels and their actual merits; how his “shadow selves” became more real to millions than he was; how many of us in the internet age also have to contend with our many shadow selves; what Rushdie lives for now; and more.Mentioned:Midnight's Children by Salman RushdieBook Recommendations:Don Quixote by Miguel de Cervantes, translated by Edith GrossmanOne Hundred Years of Solitude by Gabriel García MárquezThe Trial by Franz KafkaThe Castle by Franz KafkaThoughts?

Wat doe je nadat je aangevallen werd met een mes, en na zeventien messteken voor dood achterbleef? Het van je afschrijven, dacht Salman Rushdie. De schrijver die al meer dan dertig jaar wordt opgejaagd na een fatwa ontsnapte in 2022 aan de dood en schreef er de roman ‘Mes' over. Filip Rogiers sprak met Rushdie. Hoe kijkt hij terug op die aanslag? En wat maakt ‘Mes' tot zo'n sterk boek? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Salman Rushdie is probably most closely associated with his 1988 novel The Satanic Verses, a book inspired by the life of the prophet Muhummad. The book was notorious not just for its contents but because of the intense backlash, and the threat it posed to his safety and wellbeing. While Rushdie saw it as an exploration of Islamic culture, some Muslims saw it as blasphemous. The year after it published, Iran's supreme leader issued a fatwa, ordering Muslims to kill Rushdie.Rushdie moved to New York in 2000, and was able to resume the public life of a popular author, but that all changed on August 12th, 2022 when a young man charged at Rushdie while he was on stage at an event, stabbing him at least a dozen times.After two years, he has chronicled his brush with death, and the aftermath in his new memoir 'KNIFE'.

SCATTERED SPIDER – A surprisingly young cohort of hackers paralyzed some of Las Vegas' biggest hotels and casinos last fall, demanding an exorbitant ransom. The FBI and cyber security researchers call them "Scattered Spider" and say they are predominantly made up of native English-speaking hackers from Western countries, including the United States. Correspondent Bill Whitaker reports on the attack that brought operations at the MGM Grand, Aria and Bellagio, among others, to a standstill, and how the hackers teamed up with the notorious Russian ransomware gang behind the recent hack on UnitedHealth Group. Graham Messick is the producer.KNIFE – In his first television interview since he was attacked at a literary festival in Chautauqua, New York almost two years ago, author Salman Rushdie details his experience to correspondent Anderson Cooper. Rushdie, who was stabbed 15 times and lost his right eye, has come to terms with the attack by writing about it in his new book, KNIFE (Penguin, 2024.) He talks to Cooper about Iran's religious decree—or fatwa—that called for his death 35 years ago, his years in hiding, and how he reclaimed his life in the U.S. before he was nearly killed by an assailant wielding a knife. Michael Gavshon and Nadim Roberts are the producers.TASMANIAN TIGER – 60 MINUTES correspondent Jon Wertheim reports from the Australian island of Tasmania on the mysterious thylacine or Tasmanian tiger – an apex predator not seen since last century, but renowned through local folklore. Though the tiger was declared extinct 40 years ago, Wertheim meets those looking for the creature in the bush and the lab, and one way or another, are certain of its enduring survival.

El día de San Valentín de 1989 el ayatolá Jomeini promulgó una fatua que solicitaba a todos los musulmanes que ejecutasen al escritor angloíndio Salman Rushdie, allá donde lo encontrasen, por la publicación de su novela Los versos satánicos.

David Remnick, the longtime editor of the New Yorker, has written a new profile of the novelist Salman Rushdie. In 1989, Iran's Supreme Leader declared Rushdie's book, “The Satanic Verses,” blasphemous and issued a “fatwa” calling for his assassination. Last August, Rushdie was attacked — and nearly killed — on stage at a conference in New York State. Preet speaks with Remnick about how Rushdie has responded to the threats on his life, the price he's paid for his art, and the importance of free speech. Plus, did Rep. George Santos violate campaign finance rules? And will state and federal prosecutors consult with each other before potentially bringing charges against Donald Trump?  Don't miss the Insider bonus, where Preet and Remnick discuss their shared love of Bruce Springsteen, and whether Remnick would write a profile of George Santos.

Thirty-four years ago, the Ayatollah Khomeini, the Supreme Leader of Iran, issued a fatwa calling for the assassination of the novelist Salman Rushdie, whose book “The Satanic Verses” Khomeini declared blasphemous. It caused a worldwide uproar. Rushdie lived in hiding in London for a decade before moving to New York, where he began to let his guard down. “I had come to feel that it was a very long time ago and, and that the world moves on,” he tells David Remnick. “That's what I had agreed with myself was the case. And then it wasn't.” In August of last year, a man named Hadi Matar attacked Rushdie onstage before a public event, stabbing him about a dozen times. Rushdie barely survived. Now, in his first interview since the assassination attempt, Rushdie discusses the long shadow of the fatwa; his recovery from extensive injuries; and his writing. It was “just a piece of fortune, given what happened,” that Rushdie had finished work on a new novel, “Victory City,” weeks before the attack. The book is being published this week. “I've always thought that my books are more interesting than my life,” he remarks. “Unfortunately, the world appears to disagree.”  David Remnick's Profile of Rushdie appears in the February 13th & 20th issue of The New Yorker.
