The aim of this course is to provide students of Oriental studies with a comprehensive and systematic overview of the development of genres and styles in Persian poetry; to outline the characteristics of the genre system; and to introduce them to the theory of stylistic periods in Persian poetry and prose as studied in Iranian philology. The course involves a detailed study of the genre system of Persian poetry from its very inception and heyday during the classical period of the 10th–15th centuries to the present day, as well as an introduction to the theory of styles and stylistic eras in Persian literature, as developed by Iranian literary studies. The course “Persian Classical Poetics (Term Paper)” is part of the elective block “Iranian Studies: Linguistic Studies and Translation.” Instruction takes the form of lectures and seminars, includes a term paper, and also requires independent study. The course concludes with a final exam.
