The two fourteenth-century manuscripts that are the subject of this catalogue and the core of the exhibition that it celebrates have for a long time charmed viewers and intrigued scholars. The poetic anthology, the Mu'nis al-ahrar, is dated 1341, while the copy of the Persian national epic, or Shanama, has no date, being defective. No convincing evidence for the place of origin of either manuscript has been put forth until now. The collaborative efforts by the authors of this catalogue have yielded several discoveries, proving how productive it is for art historians to cooperate with linguists and literature experts in the study of illustrated manuscripts. Dr. Stefano Carboni decided to reassemble the Mu'nis al-ahrar manuscript, recognizing that its dispersed leaves were unusual, forming a unique chapter on illustrated poetry. Dr. Carboni discusses the art historical aspects of this poetic anthology, while the frontispiece and miniatures are examined in his accompanying entries. Alexander H. Morton of the School of Oriental and African Studies at the University of London contributed an illuminating essay in which he convincingly links the Mu'nis al-ahrar to Isfahan and explores its illustrated poetic antecedents. Marie Lukens Swietochowski discusses the Metropolitan Museum's so-called Schulz or Gutman Shanama, and interprets forty-one miniatures in entries. Tomoko Masuya, Kevorkian Research Fellow in the Department of Islamic Art, was responsible for the challenging task of reconstructing the Museum's defective version of the Shanama.
