With each poet are introductions on them by Hazrat Inayat Khan & Paul Smith. A Glossary and Selected Bibliography for each poet. Farid-ud din ?Attar is seen with Sana?i and Rumi (who he met and influenced) as one of the three most important Sufi Poet?Masters of the 13th century. Here is a wonderful, large selection of poems of the great Sufi Spiritual Master of the 13th century, who has become today the most popular poet in the world, Jalal-ud din Rumi. They are powerful, down-to-earth, spiritual and full of joy, bliss and understanding. Sadi, a contemporary of Rumi who influenced him, was another Perfect Master Poet who expressed himself in the ruba?i form as well as hundreds of ghazals in his beautiful Divan that often also contained images from dervish dancing. Sadi was a great traveller who spent forty years on the road throughout the Middle-East, North Africa and India. Persia?s greatest mystical lyric poet Hafiz or Hafez (1320-1390) became a Perfect Master. His Divan shows he composed in nearly all forms. As with his ghazals, his masnavis, qasidas, qita?s, ruba?is and other poems are sometimes mystical and sometimes critical of the hypocrisy of his times. Included is an Appendix of a translation of Hazrat Inayat Khan?s ?Book of the Winebringer. Large Format Paperback 7? x 10? 651 pages.
