Samrup Rachna is a form of calligraphic art created by Dr Syed Mohammed Anwer to promote peace and collaboration in the South Asia region where Hindustani〔"About Hindi-Urdu".

The calligraphy is an attempt to use the two altogether different Devanagari and Nastaʿlīq script scripts, used by the same language Hindi -Urdu, in unison in such a manner that a picture of the word which is written is formed. For example, the Hindustani word ''surahi'' (meaning "ewer" or "pitcher" in English) is written in Samrup Rachna calligraphy in Devanagri〔Isaac Taylor (2003), History of the Alphabet: Aryan Alphabets, Part 2, Kessinger Publishing, ISBN 9780766158474, http://books.google.com/books?id=kLlBuOybNMQC, "... In the Kutila this develops into a short horizontal bar, which, in the Devanagari, becomes a continuous horizontal line ... three cardinal inscriptions of this epoch, namely, the Kutila or Bareli inscription of 992, the Chalukya or Kistna inscription of 945, and a Kawi inscription of 919 ... the Kutila inscription is of great importance in Indian epigraphy, not only from its precise date, but from its offering a definite early form of the standard Indian alphabet, the Devanagari ..."〕 and Nastaʿlīq 〔The Cambridge History of Islam, By P. M. Holt, et al. , Cambridge University Press, 1977, ISBN 0521291380, p. 723.〕 scripts of Hindustani in a way that a picture of a ewer is formed.〔http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3iiWNZesWwg〕 In linguistics, languagea which are written in two different scripts are called Synchronic digraphia. Hindustani is one such language.〔Cheung, Yat-Shing (1992). "The form and meaning of digraphia: the case of Chinese". In K. Bolton and H. Kwok. Sociolinguistics Today: International Perspectives. London: Routledge.〕 Samrup Rachna is also advocated by its inventor to help readers of Nastaʿlīq (Urdu) script to understand and learn the Devanagari (Hindi) script of the same language. This art is aimed at helping to dispel the existing religious association with the two scripts in the region of South Asia. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Samrup rachna」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
