Abstract

This text is a collection of retellings of various love stories from different cultures and time periods. The stories include "Shirin and Khusraw" from Persian literature, "Rustam and Tahmina" from the Epic of Kings, "Vis and Ramin" from ancient Persia, "Miqdad and Mayasa" from Swahili-Arabic texts, and "Antar and Abla" from the Arabian epic Sirat Antar. Each story explores themes of love, heroism, and the triumph of love over adversity. The retellings aim to preserve the cultural and literary elements of the original stories while making them accessible to a wider audience. [Extracted from the article]
