Tehran – One loose adaptation of the anecdote of the famous Persian poet Saadi’s “Gulistan” is currently taking place in the Sangelaj Hall in Tehran.
Rahmat Amini is the writer and director of a play entitled “The Liver of India.”
Farzad Berahman, Delaram Torki, Navid Jahanzadeh, Amin Zare and Mehdi Mehryar are the main members who will remain on stage until April 28th.
Sadi’s short but fascinating story about the character of the king of Gristan is the basis for a humorous play that has roots in the past and appears in the present. The king gets sick from a terrible illness, and the cure for his illness is the liver.
“Gristan” or “Rose Garden” is the most famous work of Sadi, one of the most famous Persian poets of the 13th century. This collection is a masterpiece of Persian literature, each divided into eight chapters, each dealing with various aspects of life, ethics and morality. Sadi’s writing is characterized by his eloquence, wisdom and wit, making him a beloved figure in Persian literature and culture.
One of the key themes in Sadi’s work is the importance of kindness, compassion and generosity. His poems often emphasize the value of being a good person and treating others with respect and understanding. Sadi’s words encourage readers to strive for personal growth, self-improvement and moral integrity.
Sadi is famous for his stunning use of his works, especially his anecdotes in “Gurtan.”
These concise and fascinating stories are often characterized by moral lessons, keen wit, and insightful observations of human nature and society.
Sadie’s anecdotes encapsulate complex ideas in simple yet heart-warming ways, making them accessible to a wide audience.
Through the interaction of his characters, King, Merchant and ordinary people, he explores themes such as justice, wisdom, love, and the stupidity of human behavior.
This storytelling technique not only entertains it, but encourages readers to look back at their lives and the social dynamics surrounding them, solidifying Sadi’s legacy as a timeless commentator about the human condition.
