Abû-Muhammad Muslih al-Dîn bin Abdallâh Shîrâzî 1193-1292 better known by his pen name Saadi or Sadi Sa'di was a major Persian poet and prose writer of the medieval period. He is recognized for the quality of his writings and for the depth of his social and moral thoughts. Saadi is widely recognized as one of the greatest poets of the classical literary tradition earning him the nickname "The Master of Speech" or "The Wordsmith" Ostâd-e soxan or simply "Master" Ostad among Persian scholars. He has been quoted in the Western traditions as well. Bustan has been ranked as one of the 100 greatest books of all time by The Guardian. Bustan i.e. The Orchard completed in 1257and it's entirely in verse epic meter. It consists of stories aptly illustrating the standard virtues recommended to Muslims justice liberality modesty contentment and reflections on the behavior of dervishes and their ecstatic practices. Gulistan is mainly in prose and contains stories and personal anecdotes. The text is interspersed with a variety of short poems that contain aphorisms advice and humorous reflections demonstrating Saadi's profound awareness of the absurdity of human existence. The fate of those who depend on the changeable moods of kings is contrasted with the freedom of the dervishes. Saadi is also remembered as a panegyrist and lyricist the author of a number of odes portraying human experience and also of particular odes such as the lament on the fall of Baghdad after the Mongol invasion in 1258. His lyrics are found in Ghazaliyat i.e. Lyrics and his odes in Qasa'id i.e. Odes. He is also known for a number of works in Arabic. George Michael Wickens 1918-2006 the translator of this edition was a distinguished Canadian-British Persianist as well as Arabist translator and a University lecturer. Wickens was fluent in Persian and Arabic and was one of the pioneering figures of Persian literature in Canada. He translated several masterpieces of Persian literature as Boostan of Sa'di into English. Source: Wikipedia.

Binding has light soiling with rubbing and few tiny tears at tips of spine else a very good bright copy with text fresh and clean. First American edition and first edition thus of this translation with preface by Emerson. 379pp. 8vo. A nice association copy; John Albee was a friend of Ralph Waldo Emerson and he wrote 'Reminiscences of Emerson' 1882; reprinted in 'Concord Lectures in Philosophy'Myerson E202 and 'Remembrances of Emerson' 1901; revised edition 1903. Persian poet Musle-Huddeen Sheik Saadi 1184-1291 was born in Shiraz. In Emerson's introduction he explains the reason for the late date of publication "The slowness to import these books into our libraries-mainly owing no doubt to the forbidding difficulty of the original languages- is also due in part to some repulsion in the genius of races. At first sight the Oriental rhetoric does not please our Western taste . " Francis Gladwin translated several of the Oriental writers and wrote a "History of Hindostan." In addition to his numerous translations he also produces several vocabularies and grammatical works including a Persian-Hindustani-English dictionary which was published in 1809. In the 1860's there was a revival of interest in the Persian poems at the time of and following the publication of the "Rubaïyat." Sa'dî was an early 12th century Persian poet described by the "Encyclopedia Britannica" as "the greatest didactic poet and the most popular writer of Persia." Richard Burton and Sir Edwin Arnold both were interested in him and translated his works as did several others. This work is described by Gay Wilson Allen as a "humorous miscellany of ethical subjects in rhymed prose." p. 481 Saadi was Emerson's favorite poet in fact apparently he considered using Saadi in "Representative Men" in place of Shakespeare. Emerson became acquainted and then enamoured of the Persian poets in the late 1830's. Originally he had read Saadi in a German translation. In 1841 he wrote a poem for "The Dial" entitled "Saadi" German thought Oriental influences and Platonic thought were all integral parts of the New England Transcendentalists.
