{"product_id":"borrowed-ware-sadi-rumi-hafez-rudaki-9780934211383","title":"Borrowed Ware: Medieval Persian Epigrams","description":"Poet and translator Dick Davis brings together a collection of epigrams by poets from the 'classic' period of Persian literature. It makes a fascinating introduction to a literature that is little known in the West, and incidentally provides insight into a vanished and extraordinary way of life. Davis's prodigious scholarship of Persian poetry has enabled him to select a wide range of poems, from both famous and little-known poets. Davis has maintained exceptional faithfulness to the original Persian while recasting the poems' grace and drive in English. The book also contains a lucid and entertaining introduction, and informative notes on each of the sixty-eight poets whose work is included. Each poem is faced by the text in delicate Persian nasta'liq calligraphy by Amir Hossein Tabnak.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sa'di Rumi Hafez Rudaki\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0934211388\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780934211383\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Mage Publishers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/01\/2004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 212\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.48d","brand":"Sa'di Rumi Hafez Rudaki","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44120442700031,"sku":"9780934211383","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_fa7359f4-2e98-4e7b-8272-411a7a6aa0f8.jpg?v=1687414336","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/borrowed-ware-sadi-rumi-hafez-rudaki-9780934211383","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
