Biografische Anmerkung
Klappentext

Ghalib Lakhnavi was a writer and poet who lived in India in the nineteenth century. His only known work is the one-volume Dastan-e Amir Hamza (1855).
Abdullah Bilgrami taught Arabic in Kanpur, India. His only known work besides his enlargement of Ghalib Lakhnavi's Dastan-e Amir Hamza (1871) is a leaflet on the game of chess written in 1882.
Born in 1968 in Hyderabad, Pakistan, Musharraf Ali Farooqi is an author and translator. His critically acclaimed translation of the Indo-Islamic epic The Adventures of Amir Hamza was published by the Modern Library in 2007. He has also translated the works of contemporary Urdu poet Afzal Ahmed Syed. He is also the author of the children's picture book The Cobbler's Holiday or Why Ants Don't Wear Shoes.



Here is the first unabridged English translation of a major Indo-Persian epic: a panoramic tale of magic and passion, a classic hero's odyssey that has captivated much of the world. It is the spellbinding story of Amir Hamza, the adventurer who in the service of the Persian emperor defeats many enemies, loves many women, and converts hundreds of infidels to the True Faith before finding his way back to his first love. In Musharraf Ali Farooqi's faithful rendition, this masterwork is captured with all its colorful action and fantastic elements intact. Appreciated as the seminal Islamic epic or enjoyed as a sweeping tale as rich and inventive as Homer's epic sagas, The Adventures of Amir Hamza is a true literary treasure.
