"Review - German ""This study on Nizami's Makhzan al-asrar (hereafter MA), orginally a ""Habilitationsschrift"" at the university of Basel in 1997, is not only the first full-length one dedicated to this poet's most difficult matnawi, but moreover, by its soundness and subtlety, by far the best study devoted to him since a long time. (...)This (...) does not detract from the overall value of Wursch's study; nobody who does any research on Nizami or literature of that period in general can afford to ignore it. One fears of course that, because it is written in German, it will not have the impact it certainly deserves; it is my hope that this review makes clear that this would be a loss for scholarship.""Anna Livia BeelaertIn: Middle Eastern Literatures. 13 (2010) 1, pp. 124-126.http: //dx.doi.org/10.1080/14752620903566236(24.
