Download or read book The Ocean in a Jar written by David Pendlebury and published by Exposure Publishing. This book was released on 2006 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Baba Tahir Hamadani originally composed the quatrains in this book about 1000 years ago. His nom de plume, 'uryan, (The Naked'), is taken to refer to the austerity of his life as a wandering dervish, but it could equally well apply to the unpolished, colloquial style of his verse. Both views can be deceptive, however, as is signalled in the title used here (his own words, directly translated). We are not looking here at some half-crazed ascetic, but at a man who for a time was both vessel and voice for an eternal and infinite mind'. Centuries before Jelaluddin Rumi, Hafez and Jami, we see clearly set out the preoccupations, themes and symbols that have characterised Persian poetry right down to the present day. This text comprises a translation with notes and an expository essay, together with a Persian text and a glossary of dialect variants.
