THE ADVENTURES OF AMIR HAMZA

Book ID/图书代码： 00110907B17848

English Summary/英文概要： In the tradition of such beloved classics as The Thousand and One Nights and the Persian Shahnameh, here is the first unabridged English translation of a major Indo-Persian epic, The Adventures of Amir Hamza (Dastan-e Amir Hamza)–a panoramic tale of magic and passion, and a classic hero’s odyssey that has captivated much of the world.This Islamic saga dates back hundreds of years, perhaps to as early as the seventh century, when oral narratives of the deeds of the prophet Muhammad’s uncle Amir Hamza spread through Arabia, Persia, and the Indian subcontinent, expanding into a marvelous chronicle of warriors, kings, tricksters, fairies, courtesans, and magical creatures. The definitive one-volume Urdu text by Ghalib Lakhnavi and Abdullah Bilgrami appeared toward the end of the nineteenth century, but English translations of this text have always been censored and abridged–until now. In Musharraf Ali Farooqi’s faithful rendition, The Adventures of Amir Hamza is captured with all its colorful action, ribaldry, and fantastic elements intact. Here is the spellbinding story of Amir Hamza, the adventurer who loves Mehr-Nigar, the daughter of the Persian emperor, Naushervan. Traveling to exotic lands in the service of his emperor, Amir Hamza defeats many enemies, loves many women, and converts hundreds of infidels to the True Faith of Islam before finding his way back to his first love. Guided by a Merlin-like clairvoyant called Buzurjmehr, protected by legendary prophets, and accompanied by his loyal friend, the ingenious trickster Amar Ayyar, Amir Hamza rides his devoted winged demon-steed, Ashqar, into combat against a marvelous array of opponents, from the deadly demon, Sufaid Dev, to his own rebellious sons.

Awards/获奖情况：精彩评语：这是一部極為精采的的伊斯兰教史诗般的文學作品，应该和“1001夜神化故事”相提並論的偉大作品。..一但你融入書中的世界，战爭，神秘的怪獸，美丽高貴的公主們，騙徒，魔鬼，女神，性欲世界，殘酷的屠殺及美麗的詩篇……，再次敘述了世上你已經知道而看似沒完沒了的奇蹟故事------这绝對是出版史上令人振奋无比的一本书。 “It’s hard to think of an epic more dazzlingly splendid….Farooqi has given world literature a gift….Non-Urdu-speaking readers can at last appreciate an epic ‘on par with anything in the Western canon.’ And, with luck, the classical pantheon populated by indomitable Achilles, cunning Odysseus and righteous King Arthur will now be joined by a new beloved hero: mercurial, mighty Amir Hamza, astride his winged demon steed, soaring to the heavens.” – Time International 很难想到還有哪一部史詩能比此更辉煌的作品---法拉奇带给文學世界一份礼物-----非乌尔都语的读者最低限度也得要感激此部史詩.并且，幸运的是，像坚韧不屈的阿基里斯，狡猾的奥德修斯和正义之士亚瑟王等古典英雄人物一样，Amir Hamza是又一个新的受人爱戴的英雄：他机智敏捷，强大无比，骑着一匹长有翅膀且不知疲倦的战马，在天空中驰骋.Time International的精彩评语
