Samenvatting

~HAKIM SANA’I~Pioneer of the Persian Sufi GhazalSELECTED POEMSTranslation and Introduction by Paul SmithOne of the most prolific and influential Sufi Master Poets of all time Hakim Sana’i (d.1131) composed many ghazals (over 90 translated here), masnavis, qasidas, qita’s and over 400 ruba’is that influenced all the ruba’i writers that followed him. His long masnavi (rhyming couplets) mystical work The Enclosed Garden of the Truth is said to have had a profound influence on Rumi’s composing of his Masnavi and in Sadi’s composing his Bustan (’The Orchard’). Included in the Introduction are the Life and Times and Poetry of Sana’i and a history of the ghazal with a selection by its greatest Sufi poets. Selected Bibliography. The correct rhyme-structure has been kept, often for the first time, as well as the beauty and meaning of these powerful, mostly spiritual, beautiful, immortal ghazals.
