  • 9780997627701
Subject(s):
Contents:
In the spirit of the epic poems of old, here is an effort to retell – in "Shakespearean style" poetry – the real history that underlies the core story at the genesis of the Bahá’í Faith and its community – a narrative to which the author feels a close personal connection, and which has informed and shaped his own life path. Penned by a confessed layman, the story is written in this ennobling style and is shared with others in the hope that it may invite appreciation of the history’s universal appeal – bringing to life ageless themes and creative strivings that transcend culture and circumstance, cross-over belief affiliations, embrace the sublime in humanity regardless of time and place, and may be applicable to anyone here and now. Volume One (herein) retells the story of the Báb.
