Seller's Description:
New. No dust jacket as issued. 239 p. New hardcover book, good binding. This book is an excellent introduction to classical Persian poetry for English-speaking readers. As stated in its preface, "This little book...is a landmark in the interpretation of Persian literature, containing as it does the first English verse translation of a Persian poem." Many of these translations were completed in the late 19th century by noted scholars of both languages; for that reason alone, it is a valuable piece of history. The poets featured here include Rumi, Sa'di, Hafez, Rudaki, Khosrow, Ferdowsi, Nizami, Shahriyar, and others. OCLC 77077283.
