Description

This set examines the history and culture of Persia through its rich language and literature. It includes Griffith's translation of Jami's outstanding work, Yusuf and Zulaikha. The Warner brothers nine-volume triumph represents one of the first attempts to provide the subject matter of the great epic, Shahnama in English; and Haug's foundational essays present all the materials needed for understanding the scriptures and religion of the Parsis.
