| Manuscript Summary: | Manuscript Summary Containing more than 9,000 verses, this text comes from the first section of Jāmi’s Divān, entitled Fātihat al-shabāb (“The Dawn of Youth”). In spite of its title, this manuscript presents lyric poetry that Jāmi (1414-1494) composed from the beginning of his career until around when he was 65, namely over a period of about thirty years. In addition to mystic and religious poetry, it contains several panegyrics addressed to various lords in which the poet expresses his gratitude or celebrates their accomplishments. The paintings have a direct connection to the text. |
