The Posters' Tales: Rumi ft. Murtaza Hussain
Manage episode 398334300 series 2757532
Murtaza Hussain (@MazMHussain) joins us this week to talk about Rumi, the 13th century Islamic scholar and poet, whose writings are often mistranslated – even fabricated – in order to sell cheap merchandise on Etsy and Redbubble. Murtaza talks to us about the historical and religious context of Rumi and the epic poem, The Masnavi, as well as the long history of western translations of Rumi's work, particularly among 19th and 20th century Orientalists. We discuss the situations where Rumi's writings get lost in translation, and ultimately, why Rumi's work has consistently been a popular source of content across nearly every social media platform.
