    Abstract:
    Through the case of Emerson’s appropriation of Persian poetry this volume provides a thought-provoking example of how the literary founding father of a nation is cosmopolitan and receptive of foreign cultures in what might seem a purely “nationalistic” agenda. It will appeal to those in the field of Persian literature, comparative literature, translation studies, World Literature, American literature and, more particularly, those interested in the relation between Persian poetry and American poetry.
