Описание: FIVE SUFI ALLEGORIES IN POETRY & PROSE Farid al-din Attar, Azz-eddin al-Muqaddasi, Obeyd Zakani, Shah Dai & Parvin Etesami Translations by Paul Smith & Edward FitzGerald Farid al-din Attar (d. 1221) was a grear Sufi poet who composed over 5o books. His most loved, apart from his ghazals is The Conference of the Birds in masnavi (rhyming couplets) form that would influence all the following poets in their writing of Sufi philosophy in the way of allegories, using Nature. Azz-eddin al-Muqaddasi (d. 1280) is famous for one book, his Secret of Birds, Flowers etc. in prose and poetry. It has been said, perhaps with truth, that there is no document of such age to touch this one for a combination of mystical insight and understanding of human psychology. K. Winstone-Hamilton. Mouse & Cat by Obeyd Zakani is a satirical, epic allegory that was influential at the time it was composed (14th c.) and has remained so for the past 600 years. It is more than just a story for children (that some say brought about the cartoon of Tom & Jerry)... it is a story of the stupidity of the false power of those in power and a warning to all that such blind ambition always leads to destruction at the hands of one even more powerful. Sufi poet Shah Dai (1406-1464) takes his clue from Attar and tells the marvellous allegory of the fish who go in search of an answer to their problem from the Ancient Wise Fish. Irans recent great female poet Parvin Etesami (1907-1941) tells the simple but deep allegory of the lazy man and the hard-working spider in such a clever and engrossing way that her reason for telling it is subtle but truly enlightening. The correct rhymes and meaning are achieved. Illustrated. Large Format Paperback 7 x 10 460 pages. COMMENTS ON PAUL SMITHS TRANSLATION OF HAFIZS DIVAN. It is not a joke... the English version of ALL the ghazals of Hafiz is a great feat and of paramount importance. I am astonished. Dr. Mir Mohammad Taghavi (Dr. of Literature) Tehran. Superb translations. 99% Hafiz 1% Paul Smith. Ali Akbar Shapurzman, translator of many mystical works in English into Persian. Paul Smith (b.1945) is an Australian poet, author and translator of many books of Sufi poets of the Persian, Arabic, Urdu, Turkish, Pashtu and other languages... including Hafiz, Sadi, Nizami, Rumi, Attar, Sanai, Jahan Khatun, Obeyd Zakani, Muin, Amir Khusrau, Nesimi, Kabir, Anvari, Ansari, Jami, Omar, Seemab and others and his poetry, fiction, plays, biographies, childrens books and screenplays. www.newhumanitybooks.com
