National Epics is a book written by Kate Milner Rabb that explores the epic literature of various nations around the world. The book delves into the history, culture, and mythology of each nation, providing insights into the values and beliefs of the people who created these epic poems. Rabb examines well-known epics such as the Iliad and the Odyssey from ancient Greece, Beowulf from Anglo-Saxon England, and the Ramayana and Mahabharata from India. She also explores lesser-known epics from countries such as Finland, Serbia, and Persia. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the epic tradition and its significance in shaping the identity of different cultures. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in world literature, mythology, and folklore.Saum, who had lived to regret his foolish and wicked act, was told in a dream that his son still lived, and was being cared for by the Simurgh. He accordingly sought the nest, and carried his son away with great thanksgiving. The Simurgh parted tenderly with the little Zal, and presented him with a feather from her wing, telling him that whenever he was in danger, he had only to throw it on the fire and she would instantly come to his aid.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
