Abstract

|
ʿAbd al-Nabī Qazvīnī Fakhr al-Zamānī (b. 988/1580, d. after 1041/1631–2) was a Persian anthologist, biographer, storyteller, and poet. ʿAbd al-Nabī’s father, Khalaf Bayg (d. 1001/1592–3), was a merchant in Qazvīn but retired to a life of religious devotion after a pilgrimage to Mecca. ʿAbd al-Nabī, however, took his literary aspirations and honorific, Fakhr al-Zamānī, from his highly cultured maternal grandfather, Fakhr al-Zamān, who served as a judge in Qazvīn during the reign of Tahmāsp I (r. 930–84/
