"The catalyst for our edition in English was Leili Anvar's proposal to translate the Manteq ot-Teyr into French verse, which we were delighted to publish in 2012. In light decade of Leili Anvar's new linguistic and poetic insights, we commissioned Afkham Darbandi and Dick Davis, who first brought out iheir English verse translation of the poem in 1984, to review their work and to translate the prologue and the epilogue. It is this updated English translation that we are proud to publish here."--p. 9.
