Book The Bustan of Saadi

Download or read book The Bustan of Saadi written by and published by . This book was released on 2018-07-23 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a prose translation of the Bustan of Saadi, originally published as part of the Wisdom of the East series in the early 20th century, and long out of print. This book is full of practical spiritual wisdom. Saadi doesn't lean on allegory as much as other Sufi writers of the period; most of the stories in this collection have a pretty obvious moral lesson. ... Born in Shiraz, Iran, in 1184, Saadi (pseudonym of Muslih-ud-Din Mushrif ibn Abdullah) is considered one of the major medieval Persian poets. He traveled widely, through regions of what is today Syria, Turkey, Egypt and Iraq. Vignettes of gritty caravan and street scenes give life to his tales. In old age he returned to Shiraz, and composed his two best-known works, the poetic Bustan, or Orchard (in 1257), and the prose Gulistan, the Rose Garden (in 1258). He died in 1283 or possibly 1291.

Book excerpt: Saadi of Shiraz (1210-91) was a major Persian poet and prose writer of the medieval period. Admired for the quality of his writings and for the depth of his social and moral thoughts, he is recognized as one of the greatest poets of the classical literary tradition, earning him the nickname of 'Master of Speech', or simply 'Master, ' among Persian scholars. His best-known works are Bustan (The Orchard), completed in 1257, and Gulistan (The Rose Garden), completed in 1258. Bustan is written entirely in verse (epic metre) and consists of stories aptly illustrating the standard virtues recommended to Muslims (justice, liberality, modesty, contentment), and reflections on the behaviour of dervishes and their ecstatic practises. This English translation by A Hart Edwards, who also wrote the introduction, was published in 1911 as part of John Murray's The Wisdom of the East series

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Saadi is one of the greatest figures of classical Persian literature. His best-known work of poetry is the ‘Bustan’ (The Orchard), composed entirely in epic metre and consisting of stories illustrating the standard virtues recommended to Muslims, as well as offering reflections on the behaviour of dervishes and their ecstatic practices. Saadi also wrote the ‘Gulistan’, a prose collection featuring stories and personal anecdotes. The text is interspersed with a variety of short poems, containing aphorisms, advice and humorous reflections. Saadi’s works are characterised by their unusual blend of kindness and cynicism, always wishing to avoid the hard dilemma, making him, for many, the most widely admired poet of Persian literature.

Download or read book The Rose Garden of Saadi written by Hamid Eslamian and published by Persian Learning Center. This book was released on 2022-03-09 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Join with Sádi and Observe his Miracle Words! بنی آدم اعضای یکدیگرند که در آفرینش ز یک گوهرند The sons of Adam are limbs of each other Having been created of one essence. چو عضوی به درد آورد روزگار دگر عضوها را نماند قرار When the calamity of time afflicts one limb The other limbs cannot remain at rest. تو کز محنت دیگران بی غمی نشاید که نامت نهند آدمی If thou hast no sympathy for the troubles of others Thou art unworthy to be called by the name of a man. Sádi's prose style of writing is simple but vigorous and described as "simple but impossible to imitate" flows quite naturally and effortlessly. Its simplicity, however, is based on a semantic web consisting of synonymity, homophony, and oxymoron buttressed by internal rhythm and external rhyme. Gulistan consisting of 8 chapters is primarily in prose. The book widely addresses kings’ morality, dervishes’ behavior, benefits of contentment, the advantage of silence, love and youthfulness, weakness in old age, the effect of education, and the rules for conduct life. Golestan can be considered Saadi's report of the society of his time, in which the cultural and social conditions of the people are depicted in real life. In some stories, there are imaginary or real third-party characters, and they play a role, but in some stories, the author is present and observes some of these events, the real events of his life and some are merely fictional events. Sádi attempts to advise people to live freely and to improve the quality of their lives in Gulistan. The translation appearing in this book is by Edward Rehatsek in 1888. Goethe and Andre du Ryer presented Sádi to the west for the first time in 1634. The first full translation of Gulistan in English was finished by Sir Richard Francis Burton. Gulistan is a masterpiece of Persian writing and rhetoric and one of the most influential prose books in Persian literature. This book has been used for many years as an educational resource for schools and helps your understanding of Persian culture and literature.

  • ISBN : 9781722697709

Download or read book On Love and Youth written by Sa'di and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-07-09 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many of the stories in On Love and Youth, the fifth chapter of Sa'di's Gulistan, involve love affairs between men and youths: masters with slaves, princes with youthful subjects, teachers with schoolboys, and other variations. In most cases, the context of the relationship suggests that the youth is an adolescent or young man. For quite some time, readers in the English-speaking world had no idea Sa'di's Gulistan contained such stories, for translators either changed references to boys to refer to girls instead or, just as frequently, deleted the stories entirely. These three translations do not make that mistake.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sadi's Moral Book: Being Persian d104 and English Translation of Shaikh Sadi's Pand-Namah I should here add that in the Introduction I have frequently derived my information from Maulana H ali's in valuable work on Sadi. I can hardly expect that a work such as it is should have been altogether free from all shortcomings, but; I hope this might serve to awaken consideration in the study of a great man whose inspiration has been felt in distant age and clime, and who reigns in the world of Persian literature as supreme as Shakespeare wherever English is spoken and written.
