Description
THE SHAHNAMEH was completed in the year 1010 by the Persian poet Ferdowsi. A monumental undertaking encompassing ancient myths, legends, and history, it is one of Iran's most cherished works of literature. This is a chronicle of kings and heroes, of battles and deeds, written in verse that is compelling, lyrical, and evocative. Ferdowsi sought to capture an ancient civilization through its myths and legends. He created a framework that is steeped in the inherent universal wisdom of humanity, exploring its continuum from one generation to another, from one dynasty to another. Josiane Cohanim's translation in simple, modern, non-rhyming verse, makes the epic poem accessible to contemporary readers.
