Reynold A Nicholson Poradie kníh
Reynold Alleyne Nicholson bol popredným odborníkom na dielo súfijského básnika Rúmího v anglicky hovoriacom svete. Svoju akademickú kariéru zasvätil štúdiu islamského mysticizmu a jeho prekladom kľúčových súfijských textov z arabčiny, perzštiny a osmanskej turečtiny. Jeho celoživotné dielo spočíva v monumentálnom preklade a kritickom vydaní Rúmího Masnaví, ktoré je považované za zásadné pre pochopenie tohto majstrovského diela. Nicholsonov prínos otvoril západným čitateľom cestu k hlbšiemu porozumeniu perzskej mystickej poézie.
