Jangnama

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Jongonama)

jangnama, is an epic or heroic poem in the Bangladeshi, Indian, Irani and Pakistani literatures. The word is of Persian origin. In Kashmiri, jangnama refers to epic poetry generally; but jangnama also identifies a specific genre of poetry that deals with Islamic conquests. The genre also exists in many Muslim-influenced Indo-Aryan languages.[1]
