| Publisher Description: Pearls of Meanings offers a collection of essays by J. T. P. (Hans) de Bruijn, a pivotal and leading scholar of Persian studies. The volume covers a number of essential domains of Persian culture, with a particular emphasis on poetry and Sufism. Poetry and the reception of Persian literature in Europe both play pivotal roles in these essays, thereby representing the studies of a generation of Persian cultural scholars such as A. Reland (1676-1718), C. H. Eth (1844-1917), J. F. von Hammer-Purgstall (1774-1856), and E. G. Browne (1862-1926). Pearls of Meanings is an essential cornerstone for scholars working in Persian studies. |
