His works exerted enormous influence upon many posterior authors in the Persian Sufi and secular poetry. But the problem of the authorship of Sana’i in regard to the short poems has been debated among the scientists during 20th century and right up to the nowadays. The paper covers the history of studying of the short poems attributed to Sana’i , special attention is devoted to ‘Ishq name (“The Book of Love”), one of the main Sufi writing in the Persian literature on the subject of Mystical Love. For the definition of the authorship of this poem the paper proposes the using of the latest computational methods in particular digital stylometry. The paper tries to answer the question, who is the author of ‘Ishq name poem: Sana’i or the Sufi shaykh and author of the 14th century ‘Izz al Din Mahmud Kashani (d. 735/1334–35).","PeriodicalId":236935,"journal":{"name":"Manuscripta Orientalia.

That is why it is hardly surprising that the theme of food impregnates the text of the Qur’an, which responds to sensitive issues in a lucid style. The present paper aims to reveal the perception of ideal food as seen by the population of Arabia and to analyze the projection of the known food images onto a highly abstract range of punishment and reward in the afterworld in order to arouse an emotional response to the new religious paradigm.","PeriodicalId":236935,"journal":{"name":"Manuscripta Orientalia.

He created a unique individual style, which was different from that of his predecessors and greatly influenced subsequent Afghan Pashto poetry. However, because of the complexity and eloquence of his style, his work has been understudied inside and outside Afghanistan. The authorship of a set of ghazals by Hamid is questioned by the authors of this article, with some forty works defined as controversial. Methods of digital stylometry are applied to determine the authorship of these ghazals. As a result of this experiment, the question is clarified as to whether Hamid's controversial ghazals are indeed authentic.","PeriodicalId":236935,"journal":{"name":"Manuscripta Orientalia.
