Join with Sádi and Observe his Miracle Words! بنی آدم اعضای یکدیگرند که در آفرینش ز یک گوهرند The sons of Adam are limbs of each other Having been created of one essence. چو عضوی به درد آورد روزگار دگر عضوها را نماند قرار When the calamity of time afflicts one limb The other limbs cannot remain at rest. تو کز محنت دیگران بی غمی نشاید که نامت نهند آدمی If thou hast no sympathy for the troubles of others Thou art unworthy to be called by the name of a man. Sádi's prose style of writing is simple but vigorous and described as "simple but impossible to imitate" flows quite naturally and effortlessly. Its simplicity, however, is based on a semantic web consisting of synonymity, homophony, and oxymoron buttressed by internal rhythm and external rhyme. Gulistan consisting of 8 chapters is primarily in prose. The book widely addresses kings’ morality, dervishes’ behavior, benefits of contentment, the advantage of silence, love and youthfulness, weakness in old age, the effect of education, and the rules for conduct life. Golestan can be considered Saadi's report of the society of his time, in which the cultural and social conditions of the people are depicted in real life. In some stories, there are imaginary or real third-party characters, and they play a role, but in some stories, the author is present and observes some of these events, the real events of his life and some are merely fictional events. Sádi attempts to advise people to live freely and to improve the quality of their lives in Gulistan. The translation appearing in this book is by Edward Rehatsek in 1888. Goethe and Andre du Ryer presented Sádi to the west for the first time in 1634. The first full translation of Gulistan in English was finished by Sir Richard Francis Burton. Gulistan is a masterpiece of Persian writing and rhetoric and one of the most influential prose books in Persian literature. This book has been used for many years as an educational resource for schools and helps your understanding of Persian culture and literature. Published by: Persian Learning Center www.persianbell.com
The Gulistan is among the most famous works of Persian literature by one of Persia's greatest poets, Muslih-uddin Sa'di Shirazi. Born in Shiraz sometime between 1184 and 1210 CE, Sa'di received his education in Baghdad and spent several decades in travel and pilgrimage. In 1256, Sa'di returned to Shiraz. He wrote the Gulistan in 1258, the same year that the Mongols sacked Baghdad.The Gulistan or Rose Garden of Sa'di, intended as a 'mirror for princes,' includes prose didactic tales interspersed with short verses. The book is divided into eight parts: The Manners of Kings, The Morals of Dervishes, The Excellence of Contentment, The Advantages of Silence, Love and Youth, Weakness and Old Age, The Effects of Education, and Rules for Conduct in Life.This classic translation by Edward Rehatsek has been edited and updated with a new introduction by David Rosenbaum.
Prosopis (Prosopis juliflora) is a xerophyte which, in its native habitats has been a desert plant. As long as it was confined to that habitat, P. juliflora was a great resource, improving the region's micrometeorology, binding its sandy soil, and providing shelter, fuel, feed, food, medicines, and cosmetics to the people of such regions. In particular, for the economically weaker inhabitants, P.juliflora was a lifeline.But when P. juliflora was indiscriminately introduced in other regions of the world in a hope to derive similar benefits from it, things began to go awry. Indeed, among the invasive species of plants which are spreading at an alarming rate in the tropical and sub-tropical regions of the world, P.juliflora is arguably the most hardy and resilient. It is growing so explosively that it even enters roads and homes, driving humans out of their dwellings. The resulting damage to biodiversity is enormous. This book highlights the dual role played so far by P. juliflora and itemizes the facets that make it a blessing in some contexts and a bane in other contexts.Authored by leading experts in the field, Prosopis juliflora: Attributes, Impact, Utilization is the first title of its kind to comprehensively discuss this hardy plant species. It will be an essential read for students, researchers and governmental agencies interested in plant biology, forestry, plant ecology, invasive plant species and environmental science. - Summarizes all the key information available on P. juliflora, from its origin and systematics to its future prospects - Discusses colonization, utilization and eradication - Authored by leading experts in the field with over 40 years of experience

Tino de SA’s short stories are like mini movie scripts, as he dives straight into the heart of the dilemma. He plots his narrative deftly and his characters are vivid enough to be your neighbours or relatives... "– Shobhaa De, author, columnist "Tino de SA’s stories throb with life. The characters are so familiar that you feel you would meet them any moment, in the market, in the office or in your home. A rare talent." – Anand Neelakantan, author, screenwriter "Tino de SA’s stories wrap up a range of different expe- sciences in a light, unassuming and very readable prose." – Amitabha Bagchi, author Each of these eleven stories is a polished gem that speaks to the reader in ways one different from the other. Many of them have a surprising little twist to offer in the end, and all are told with subtel wit. The wide-ranging themes that they encompass include incest, murder, suicide and homosexuality. But they also include love and laughter, hope and history re-imagined.
