The Bústán (Classic Reprint): Translated for the First Time Into Prose, With Explanatory Notes and Index - Softcover
Excerpt from The Bústán: Translated for the First Time Into Prose, With Explanatory Notes and Index
The Reader's attention is invited to the following points in this translation of the Bústan of Shaikh Mushlihu-d-dín Sa'dí of Shíráz:
a. The couplets are numbered, rendering reference easy.
b. Each line of the translation agrees with the corresponding line in the original Persian text; the two lines, forming a couplet, are not run into each other.
c. A full index to the discourses is given.
d. Foot-notes give information as to the couplets of the Bustán which are omitted in the 'Ikd-i-manzum, which are omitted in the examination for "High Proficiency" in Persian.
The Persian texts of the Bústán differ greatly. The Persian text of this translation is that which was brought out, under the auspices of the Oriental Society of Germany, by Charles M. Graf, at Vienna, in 1858.
The student, as he reads, should number the couplets of his Persian text, so as to make them accord with those of this translation. Much trouble in making references will thus be saved.
