Samenvatting

THE BOOK OF SANA’I Translation 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 here translated), 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 various poetic forms that he wrote in. Selected Bibliography. The correct rhyme-structure has been kept as well as the beauty and meaning of these immortal poems. Large Format Edition in Paperback 7” x 10” Pages 283COMMENTS 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.
