One of greatest Persian writers of both classical prose and poetry, Sa'di was revered in his time as a man of great wisdom and passion. Filled with extracts of the poet's melodious and insightful writing, and critical analysis thereof, this revealing biography examines why he was so idolized until the 1950s, and why since then he has fallen into relative obscurity.
Reviews
This book is about biography of Iranian poet Sa'di, whose work touched all aspect of our society within unlimited time frame. Scholars from China all the way to European have been studying his poems in order to learn how to become a better human.
This book also compares Sa'di work with other Iranian poets like Rumi, Hafiz and so on.
This book encouraged me to read other book on Sa'di; such as, Golstan and Bustan and to learn about my own culture more.
Well done.
