Persian Prose cover

An exhaustive examination of the history of Persian prose literature

Persian literature is the jewel in the crown of Persian culture. It has profoundly influenced the literatures of Ottoman Turkey, Muslim India and Turkic Central Asia and has been a source of inspiration for Goethe, Emerson, Matthew Arnold and Jorge Luis Borges among others. Yet Persian literature has never received the attention it truly deserves. 'A History of Persian Literature' answers this need and offers a new, comprehensive and detailed history of its subject.
