- Summary:
- Primarily celebrated as a poet, 'Abd al-Rahman Jami was also an accomplished Islamic scholar and Arabist, a Sufi of great standing, and an acerbic polemicist and social critic. In this volume, Hamid Algar presents a masterfully concise study of Jami, a culminating figure in Perso-Islamic culture, whose reputation and influence have remained undiminished throughout the eastern Islamic world-the Ottoman empire and Central Asia, Iran, India, China, and the Malay world.
