Description

Muhammad Fuzuli (1494, Karbala, Iraq - 1556) was an Azerbaijani poet. He wrote in Azerbaijani, Persian and Arabic. Lyric poetry - mainly ghazals and qasidas - occupies a large place in Fuzuli's poetic legacy. The extraordinary artistic power of Fuzuli's poetry lies in its closeness to the inner world of man. The pinnacle of Fuzuli's work is the lyric-epic poem 'Layla and Majnun' (1536-37). The 'sublime rapture' of love, which Fuzuli considered the foundation of the universe, admiration for the beauty of the beloved, and the suffering and sorrow connected with the eternal unattainability of perfection in love, make up the main content of his lyric poetry. In asserting a person's right to earthly love, the poet went against Muslim religious prohibitions and canons. The pinnacle of Fuzuli's work is the lyric-epic poem 'Layla and Majnun' (1536-37).
