This stunning collection of poems opens up an entire world: the rich, virile, & highly literate Moslem culture of medieval Spain. The full range of poetic emotion & enterprise is spanned by this pioneering collection which The New Yorker said, "may well be for the 20th century what The Rubiyt of Omar Khayym was for the 19th.... These translations are something of a miracle." The supple renderings make this lost world of a millennium ago marvelously tangible, vivid, & palpable. They pay special attention to the female poets, & to the evolution & meaning of the verse structures & songforms. This is a work of scholarly importance as well as a straightforward poetic pleasure.
