Iranian Influence on Moslem Literature Part I

The study traces the historical migration of Persian literary and philosophical ideas into Muslim culture particularly through translations and the spread of Sufi traditions. Inostrantzev emphasizes the role of Persian poets such as Rumi and Hafez and how their work shaped religious philosophical and literary paradigms across the Islamic world. The book examines the fusion of Persian narrative style with Islamic values and how this influenced Arabic and other regional literary forms. This analysis provides insight into the cross-cultural exchanges that defined Muslim literature and demonstrates the critical role of Iranian thought in shaping the artistic and intellectual expressions of the Islamic world. Inostrantzev’s work is a foundational resource for understanding the legacy of Persian influence on both classical and modern Muslim literary traditions.
