The Press and Poetry of Modern Persia is a book written by Edward G. Browne and first published in 1914. The book explores the history of Persian poetry and the role of the press in shaping modern Persian literature. Browne, who was a professor of Persian at the University of Cambridge, draws on his extensive knowledge of Persian literature and culture to provide a comprehensive overview of the subject.The book is divided into two parts. The first part focuses on the development of Persian poetry from the early Islamic period to the modern era. Browne provides a detailed analysis of the major poets and their works, including Hafez, Sa'di, Rumi, and Omar Khayyam. He also discusses the influence of Persian poetry on other literary traditions, such as English and French literature.The second part of the book examines the role of the press in shaping modern Persian literature. Browne discusses the emergence of newspapers and magazines in Iran in the late 19th and early 20th centuries and their impact on the literary scene. He also discusses the role of censorship and government control of the press in shaping literary discourse.Overall, The Press and Poetry of Modern Persia is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Persian literature and culture. Browne's detailed analysis of Persian poetry and the press provides a fascinating insight into the development of modern Persian literature. The book is written in a clear and accessible style, making it suitable for both scholars and general readers alike.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
