Jami (1414-1492), a scholar and mystic, is considered by many to be one of the greatest Persian poets of the 15th century. This volume, edited by F. Hadland Davis and first published in 1908, contains selections from some of Jamis best-known works. Salaman and Absal examines the earthly love (the love that binds and fetters and is corruptible) of the eponymous star-crossed lovers and contrasts it with incorruptible celestial love. The Lawaih is a treatise on Sufism. Yusuf and Zulaikha tells of Zulaikhas unrequited love for Yusuf, and the Baharistan is a book of verse and prose written as a series of eight gardens. A brief biography of Jami and some additional information on each of the selections are included in this timeless work. FREDERICK HADLAND DAVIS is also the author of The Persian Mystics: Jalalud-Din Rumi (1907) and Myths and Legends of Japan (1912), both available from Cosimo. Reprint of edition 1918.
