“Learn Persian through Rumi’s Masnavi” is a near advanced course and students
will need to have a solid background of Persian with at least intermediate
skills in Persian reading comprehension.

The “Learn Persian through Rumi’s Masnavi” online course will help the
participants to master skills in Persian, particularly in reading and
interpreting Persian classical poetry, deepen their knowledge of the Masnavi
and learn the various meanings of Persian words.

The 2 weeks “Learn Persian through Rumi’s Masnavi” online course offers 40
hours of intensive Persian language classes during 10 days of teaching (from
Monday till Friday each week). Every day the participants will receive Persian
language instruction through the Rumi’s Masnavi for 4 hours. In addition to
reading and discussing the Masnavi every day, the students will also read an
article in Persian by an Iranian scholar about a unique aspect of the Masnavi.
These readings are available in our syllabus. Every day the class will start
with a discussion of the homework and the mentioned article. Following this,
the class will read, interpret and decipher one or several stories from the
Masnavi. Each day's class will end with discussion and questions.
