Samenvatting
ANVARI Life & PoemsTranslation & Introduction Paul SmithAhad-ud-din Anvari Abeverdi (1126-1189) was a court poet of the Seljuk sultans. Jami composed a ruba’i where he names him, along with Firdausi and Sadi as one of the ‘three apostles’ of Persian poetry. He was also a celebrated astronomer, mathematician and scientist who admitted he gave them up for the more lucrative occupation of a court poet, that he later rejected twenty years before his death for a life of seclusion and contemplation as a Sufi. He is renowned for his delightful wittiness that can be found in many of his ruba’is and qit’as and ghazals. He is one of the greatest Persian masters of the qasida and qit’a. He created a new kind of poetry by using the conversational language of his time in simple words and expressions. The correct rhyme-structure has been kept as well as the beauty and meaning of these beautiful, poems. Introduction to Sufi Poets Series. 90 pages.COMMENTS ON PAUL SMITH’S TRANSLATION OF HAFIZ’S ‘DIVAN’.“It is not a joke... the English version of ALL the ghazals of Hafiz is a great feat and of paramount importance.
