The History of Beyhaqi: The History of Sultan Mas‘ud of Ghazna, 1030–1041 (Translation of Years 424–432 A.H. (1032–1041 A.D.) and the History of Khwarazm) - Ilex Series
Abu’l-Fazl Beyhaqi
This is the first complete translation, with detailed commentary, of the surviving volumes of Beyhaqi’s massive project. The historian’s writings, dealing with the years 1030–1041, combine astute criticism and wry humor with an unobtrusive display of mastery of the learned literature of the time, both in Arabic and Persian.
