Publisher Notes
Not so much a biography as a definitive guide, this authoritative book marks an exciting new benchmark in the field of Rumi studies. Exploring everything from his religious background to internet websites dedicated to him, this is an indispensable manual for anyone interested in the life, poetry and teachings of Jalāl al-Din Rumi. The writer has drawn exhaustively on a huge array of sources to present a scholarly but thoroughly accessible work that will be enjoyed as much by non-specialist and general readers as it will by scholars and students.
