Description
The Epic of Kings is an epic poem written by the Persian poet, Firdausi, in the 10th century. It is considered one of the greatest works of Persian literature and tells the story of ancient Persia, from the creation of the world to the Islamic conquest in the 7th century.The poem is divided into 62 chapters, each telling a different story or legend. It begins with the story of the creation of the world and the first king of Persia, Keyumars. The poem then follows the line of kings, including Jamshid, Zahhak, and Fereydun, who each face their own challenges and battles.The most famous section of the poem is the story of Rostam and his son Sohrab. Rostam is a legendary warrior who fights for Persia and is known for his strength and bravery. Sohrab, his son, is raised by the enemy and becomes a great warrior himself. When they meet on the battlefield, they do not realize they are father and son and engage in a tragic battle.The Epic of Kings is not only a work of literature but also a historical document, as it provides insight into the culture, religion, and values of ancient Persia. It is also a testament to the importance of storytelling in Persian culture and has been passed down through generations.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
