 Sufi Symbolism
of Love, Lover, Beloved
Allusions and Metaphors |
We are happy to record the appearance of the 2nd
volume of the Nurbakhsh Encyclopedia, which is devoted to Love, and
all its corollaries, that is, it covers the most important aspect of
Persian mystical poetry. As in the first volume, every concept is explained
not only by verses from the classical Persian poetry, but also by prose
treatises, and even a scholar who has worked in this field for a long
time will appreciate the subtle nuances of apparently synonymous words.
