Shahnameh is a lengthy epic poem which vividly intertwines the
mythical and historical history of Persia, thereby enchanting and
impressing readers for many centuries. Originally composed by
Abolqasem Ferdowsi in the 10th century, the Shahnameh enjoys the
distinction of being the longest epic poem by a single author in
existence. The verses took Ferdowsi over three decades to complete.
Although it draws heavily from established mythology and the
historical archives of Persia, Ferdowsi also imbues the poem's
story with his own vivid inventions and plot devices. The entire
poem is intended as a history of Persia from the earliest times
until the Islamic Conquest of the country, which occurred about 350
years before Ferdowsi composed his epic. The verses proceed
chronologically, beginning with the creation of the Earth, through
the establishment of Zoroastrianism as the first monotheistic faith
in the region, with the principle characters being various great
generals and rulers.
