Davis's elegant combination of prose and verse allows the poetry of the Shanameh to sing its own tales directly, interspersed sparingly with clearly-marked explanations to ease along modern readers. Among the greatest works of world literature, this prodigious narrative, composed by the poet Ferdowsi in the late tenth century, tells the story of pre-Islamic Iran, beginning in the mythic time of creation and continuing forward to the Arab invasion in the seventh century.Country/Region of Manufacture: GBGenre: Poetry & DramaRelease Year: 2016 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
