From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Fakhruddin As'ad Gurgani, also spelled as Fakhraddin Asaad Gorgani, (in Persian: فخرالدين اسعد گرگاني) was an 11th century poet of Persia (Iran). He compiled and wrote Vis u Ramin, (Vis & Ramin), a story from the Arsacid (Parthian) period. Contemporary scholar Abdolhossein Zarrinkoub however disagrees with this view, and concludes that the story has a Pahlavi (middle-Persian) origin in the 5th century Sassanid era.

| Contemporary Persian and Classical Persian are the same language, but writers since 1900 are classified as contemporary. The above lists include poets mostly of Iranic background but also some of Indic, Turkic and Slavic backgrounds. At one time, Persian was a common cultural language of much of the non-Arabic Islamic world. |
