The Rose Garden of Saadi – hinnat ja saatavuus

Join with S di and Observe on his Miracle Wordsبنی آدم اعضای یکدیگرند که در آفرینش ز یک گوهرندThe sons of Adam are limbs of each otherHaving been created of one essence.چو عضوی به درد آورد روزگار دگر عضوها را نماند قرارWhen the calamity of time afflicts one limbThe other limbs cannot remain at rest.تو کز محنت دیگران بی غمی نشاید که نامت نهند آدمیIf thou hast no sympathy for the troubles of othersThou art unworthy to be called by the name of a man. Abu-Muhammad Musleh al-Din bin Abdallah Shirazi(1210-1291), known by his penname S di, was a major Persian poet and prose writer of the medieval period. He is broadly known as one of the greatest poets of the classical literary tradition, earning him the nickname "The Master of Speech" or "The Wordsmith" or simply "Master" among Persian scholars. S di is known as a mystic and metaphysician in the history of Persian literature. S di elaborately distinguishes between the spiritual and the mundane aspects of life in his works. He tries to visualize the deepest meanings of life in the most palpable contexts and close to conversational language as far as possible in such a way that even common people can understand the most out of his writings. The best known and most reads of his writings are the Gulistan in prose and verse, and the Bustan in verse. He pleased in wit and power of repartee, and puns abound in his works. His moral and spiritual admonitions show great depth of thought, correct observation, and knowledge of human nature. S di'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. S di 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 S di 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. Published by: Persian Learning Centerwww.persianbell.com
