This landmark book reveals the structure of RB;mB;'s
thirteenth-century classic, the MathnawB;. A beloved collection of
25,000 picturesque, alliterative verses full of anecdotes and
parables on what appear to be loosely connected themes, the
MathnawB; presents itself as spontaneous and unplanned. However,
as Seyed Ghahreman Safavi and Simon Weightman demonstrate, the work
has a sophisticated design that deliberately hides the spiritual so
that readers, as seekers, have to find it for themselves--it is not
only about spiritual training, it is spiritual training. Along with
a full synoptic reading of the whole of Book One, the authors
provide material on RB;mB;'s life, his religious position, and
his literary antecedents. Safavi and Weightman have provided
readers, students, and scholars with a valuable resource: the guide
that they wished they had had prior to their own reading of this
great spiritual classic.
