Let's hear it for Rumi

Today we've published our last blog on the great Sufi poet, Rumi. Many thanks to University of Chicago professor of Persian, Franklin Lewis, for providing an accessible account of this esoteric master. Those who have followed the series will doubtless want to go over and show their appreciation in the traditional manner (hence no comments here) – or at the very least, cast a last, sceptical look at it.

Next week: Giles Fraser on Wittgenstein.
