mit Orig. Umschl. (guter Zustand) 66 unpag.Antikbuch24-Schnellhilfepag. = paginiert (Seitennummerierung) S. (orig.hardcover with dustjacket) The Kasîdah of Haji Abdu El-Yezdi (1.edit. : 1880 ) is a long English-language poem written by Hajî Abdu El-Yezdi, a pseudonym of the true author, Sir Richard Francis Burton ( 1821 - 1890 ) a well-known British Arabist and explorer. In a note to the reader, Burton claims to be the translator of the poem, to which he gives the English title Lay of the Higher Law. It is thus a pseudotranslation, pretending to have had an original Persian text, which never existed. The Kasidah is essentially a distillation of Sufi thought in the poetic idiom of that mystical tradition; Burton had hoped to bring Sufist ideas to the West (zit. n. wikip.)
