Islamic mysticism, or Sufism, has found its finest expression in the classical poetry of Persia, in particular during its most creative period up the late 15th century. Focusing on the poems themselves rather than on their authors, this introduction surveys the development of Persian mystical poetry, dealing first with the relation between Sufism and literature and then with the four main genres of the tradition: the epigram, the homiletic poem, love poetry, and symbolic narrative.
