ペルシア・ロマンス叙情詩 Vis u Ramin について

抄録

The romantic epic, “Vis u Ramin” was composed by Fakhr al-din As'ad Gurgani in the eleventh Christian century. On account of the following three aspects, this epic may be ranked as one of the most valuable works in Persian literature:
(1) Being the earliest romantic epic extant, the work must have influenced on Persian literature to follow after it, to a great extent.
(2) It is said that Fakhr al-din As'ad Gurgani versified in Persian from the basis of the story then existed in Pahlavi (a some earlier form of Pahlavi). The process, therefore, presents important materials to the field of philology as well.
(3) The story “Vis u Ramin” is considered as a work of the Arsacid dynasty.
With regard to the last two aspects, it should be best a for us to examine what the author-himself describes about them in his own epic.
