THE HERITAGE OF SUFISM (Volume II) The Legacy of Medieval Persian Sufism (1150-1500) Leonard Lewisohn (Ed.) Featuring studies by twenty-three of the world’s foremost authorities on Islamic mysticism, this collection– the second of a three-volume comprehensive study– examines the roots of the artistic, literary and cultural renaissance of Sufism from the twelfth to the fifteenth centuries. It features essays on: Rūmī’s poetry and imagery, Sufi music and the idea of ecstasy, sainthood and Neoplatonism, comparative metaphysics and literature, unity of religion theory in Sufi philosophy. Celebrating the richness of the Sufi contribution to Islamic culture and its continuing relevance, this book has been written for students and all those wishing to develop their interest in spirituality and mysticism as well as Persian literature. Unique in its historical scope, this fascinating investigation makes a perfect guide for students and for those interested in Islamic mysticism. Persian Sufi literature occupies a unique position not only in the history of Persia but in the whole of Islamic civilization. This three-volume project, original contribution to Islamic Studies, is the most up-to-date study of the rise of Persian Sufi spirituality and literature in Islam, during the first six Muslim centuries and spans an entire millennium (750-1750) of Persianate Sufism.
