This book was released on 2014-05-07 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the preface:"THE following Translation of an interesting portion of Mirkhond's General History of the East was completed many years back, under peculiarly un¬favourable circumstances-the possession of only one Manuscript, and the want of some learned friend to consult on the difficult and doubtful pas¬sages which occur in the original. The under¬taking, commenced under such discouraging pro¬spects, has at present been revised under more favourable auspices : the Library of the East-India College supplied two valuable Manuscripts; and Dr. WILKINS, of the East-India House, to whom Oriental Literature is so deeply indebted, kindly af¬forded the use of three Manuscripts from the Library of the Honourable the East-India Company.In addition to these advantages, the Translator enjoyed that of consulting the MIRZA IBRAHIM, a learned native of Shiraz, who to an intimate know¬ledge of the customs and languages of Western Asia unites an extensive acquaintance with English and European literature. The Translator now re¬grets that he did not more frequently avail himself of such powerful aid, so cheerfully afforded on every occasion. In this version nothing has been in-tentionally passed over, excepting the enumeration of difficulties and the various readings; even the seeming tautology of the text has been adhered to in numerous passages, where a concise Arabic sen¬tence has been dilated into sonorous Persian periods. On the whole, the translation has been kept so close to the original, that it is hoped the Oriental Stu¬dent may find it a useful and faithful auxiliary in the perusal of the Rauzat-us-Safa : and, as this motive has chiefly influenced the Translator, he trusts that, for whatever faults may be found in the style, this important object, which he never lost sight of, may serve as an apology or extenuation."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Around 550 B.C.E. the Persian people—who were previously practically unknown in the annals of history—emerged from their base in southern Iran (Fars) and engaged in a monumental adventure that, under the leadership of Cyrus the Great and his successors, culminated in the creation of an immense Empire that stretched from central Asia to Upper Egypt, from the Indus to the Danube. The Persian (or Achaemenid, named for its reigning dynasty) Empire assimilated an astonishing diversity of lands, peoples, languages, and cultures. This conquest of Near Eastern lands completely altered the history of the world: for the first time, a monolithic State as vast as the future Roman Empire arose, expanded, and matured in the course of more than two centuries (530–330) and endured until the death of Alexander the Great (323), who from a geopolitical perspective was “the last of the Achaemenids.” Even today, the remains of the Empire-the terraces, palaces, reliefs, paintings, and enameled bricks of Pasargadae, Persepolis, and Susa; the impressive royal tombs of Naqsh-i Rustam; the monumental statue of Darius the Great-serve to remind visitors of the power and unprecedented luxury of the Great Kings and their loyal courtiers (the “Faithful Ones”). Though long eclipsed and overshadowed by the towering prestige of the “ancient Orient” and “eternal Greece,” Achaemenid history has emerged into fresh light during the last two decades. Freed from the tattered rags of “Oriental decadence” and “Asiatic stagnation,” research has also benefited from a continually growing number of discoveries that have provided important new evidence-including texts, as well as archaeological, numismatic, and iconographic artifacts. The evidence that this book assembles is voluminous and diverse: the citations of ancient documents and of the archaeological evidence permit the reader to follow the author in his role as a historian who, across space and time, attempts to understand how such an Empire emerged, developed, and faded. Though firmly grounded in the evidence, the author’s discussions do not avoid persistent questions and regularly engages divergent interpretations and alternative hypotheses. This book is without precedent or equivalent, and also offers an exhaustive bibliography and thorough indexes. The French publication of this magisterial work in 1996 was acclaimed in newspapers and literary journals. Now Histoire de l’Empire Perse: De Cyrus a Alexandre is translated in its entirety in a revised edition, with the author himself reviewing the translation, correcting the original edition, and adding new documentation. Pierre Briant, Chaire Histoire et civilisation du monde achémenide et de l’empire d’Alexandre, Collège de France, is a specialist in the history of the Near East during the era of the Persian Empire and the conquests of Alexander. He is the author of numerous books. Peter T. Daniels, the translator, is an independent scholar, editor, and translator who studied at Cornell University and the University of Chicago. He lives and works in New York City.
