Book Overview

Salaman and Absal: An Allegory is a mystical and allegorical poem written by the 15th-century Persian poet, Jami. The poem tells the story of Salaman, a prince who falls in love with Absal, a beautiful young girl who is actually a fairy. The two embark on a journey of spiritual and emotional awakening, facing trials and tribulations along the way.Throughout the poem, Jami uses symbolism and metaphor to explore themes of love, spirituality, and the human condition. The characters of Salaman and Absal represent the dual nature of human existence ������� the physical and the spiritual ������� and the quest for unity between the two.The poem is divided into seven chapters, each with its own unique style and tone. Jami's use of language is rich and poetic, with vivid descriptions of nature and the human experience. The work has been compared to other great mystical works such as Rumi's Mathnawi and Hafez's Divan.Overall, Salaman and Absal: An Allegory is a beautiful and thought-provoking work of literature that explores the depths of the human soul and the quest for spiritual enlightenment.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
