'Alî 'Imâdu d-Dîn Nasîmî, (1369-1417), was a 14th-century Azeri or Iraqi-Turkmen, Hurûfi poet. Known mostly by his pen name (or takhallus) of Nesîmî, he composed one divan in Azerbaijani, one in Persian, and a number of poems in Arabic. He is considered one of the greatest Turkic mystical poets of the late 14th and early 15th centuries and one of the most prominent early divan masters in Turkic / Turkish literary history (the language used in this divan is close to Azerbaijani). Hurufism (Arabic: Hurufiyyah) was a Sufi doctrine based on the mysticism of letters (?urûf), which originated in Astrabad and spread to areas of western Persia and Anatolia in the late 14th and early 15th centuries. Extremely rare.

In 1612 he published the work Nederduytsche spellinge, which was a proposal for a comprehensive spelling of the Dutch language and in 1643 he published the math book Arithmetica oft reken-konst.

New Arabic Original bdg. HC. 4to. (29 x 22 cm). Text in English and Persian; facsimile in Arabic. [xiii], [36], 612 p. Mujlî mir'ât al-munjî fî l-kalâm wa-l-hikmatayn wa-l-tasawwuf. Lithograph edition by Ahmad al-Shîrâzî. Reprinted with an introduction, table of contents, and indices by Sabine Schmidtke (Silsilah-'i Mutun va Mutala'ât-i Falsafi va Kalami 10). Al-Ahsai, known as Ibn Abi Jumhur, was the first among the Twelver Shi'is to attempt to forge a synthesis of the various intellectual strands of his time. While he started off as a theologian deeply influenced by Mutazili thought, as can be seen from his early qalam works, he set out in his late work 'Mujli...' to amalgamate Mutazilite and Asharite qalam, Peripatetic and Illuminationist philosophy, as well as philosophical mysticism in an unprecendented and unique manner. (From introduction). "His supercommentary on his Maslak al-afhâm fi?'ilm al-kalâm and on the commentary on al-Maslak entitled al-Nûr al-munjî min al-z?alâm.".
Pages Very slightly tanned. Else fine. ; The third volume, published in two parts, is an account of every aspect of Iranian civilisation from the death of Alexander in 323 BC to the advent of Islam in the seventh century AD. This complex period, of major importance in Iranian history and extending for almost a thousand years, encompasses the reigns of the Seleucid, the Parthian, the Kushan and Sasanian dynasties. As additions to the general objectives of these volumes, Professor Yarshater has included in this volume chapters on the institutional, administrative, legal, numismatic, linguistic and literary aspects of the period; and he further develops the scope of the volume by including studies of Iran's interaction with neighbouring societies, of Iran's mythical and legendary history, and of Iranian settlements outside the geographical boundaries of Iran and Afghanistan. This volume is the most comprehensive study published of this very important period of Iran's history. ; The Cambridge History of Iran; Vol. 3.2; 883 pages

Avesta grammar and reader: An Avesta grammar in comparison with Sanskrit.= Dastûr-i zabân va guzîdah-'i mutûn-e Avistâyî [REPRINT of 1892 EDITION]. Jackson was born in New York City on February 9, 1862. He graduated from Columbia University in 1883. He was a fellow in letters there from 1883 to 1886, and an instructor in Anglo-Saxon and the Iranian languages from 1887 to 1890. After study at the University of Halle from 1887 to 1889 he became an adjunct professor of English language and literature. In 1895, he was appointed public lecturer and also appointed to the newly founded professorship of Indo-Iranian languages at Columbia University, where he remained until 1935. He was well known as a lecturer on English literature and the Orient. In 1901, during a visit to India and Ceylon, he received special attention from the Parsees, who presented to Columbia a valuable collection of Zoroastrian manuscripts in recognition of the instruction there given by him in their ancient texts. In 1903 he made a second journey to the Orient, this time visiting Iran. He also visited Central Asia sometime before 1918. Jackson's grammar of Avestan, the language used in the Zoroastrian scriptures, is still considered to be the seminal work on the topic. Jackson was one of the directors of the American Oriental Society.
