A Century of Ghazels, also known as A Hundred Odes, is a collection of poems written by the Persian poet Hafiz. The book, first published in 1875, features a selection of one hundred ghazals (a form of Persian poetry consisting of rhyming couplets and a refrain) that have been translated into English. The translations are taken from Hafiz's Diwan, which is a collection of his complete works. The poems in A Century of Ghazels cover a range of themes, including love, spirituality, and nature. Hafiz's writing is known for its lyrical beauty and depth of meaning, and his work has been celebrated throughout the centuries for its ability to capture the essence of Persian culture and society. The translator of this edition is not specified, but it is likely that the work was translated by a British or American scholar in the 19th century. The book provides an important glimpse into the world of Persian poetry and the work of one of its most revered poets.The Diwan Of Hafiz, A Persian Lyrical Poet, Who Flourished In The Fourteenth Century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
