Seyed Karim Amiri Firuzkuhi or Firozkohi (Persian: سید کریم امیری فیروزکوهی) was a renowned contemporary Iranian poet. == Life == The son of Sayyid Mustafa Quli Muntazam al-Dawla, Amiri Firuzkuhi was born in Farahabad, Firuzkuh. His ancestors had been governors and military commanders from the reign of Karim Khan to the end of the Qajar rule, so that their names all included the title of ''amir,'' meaning ''emir'' or ''king''. His father was a modernist under the Qajar Muzaffar al-Din Shah accompanying the shah to Europe as a commander and dignitary, thus having the opportunity to directly observe the latest developments of Western civilization. At the age of seven, Karim was taken by his father to Tehran, though this great change in his life tragically coincided with his father's death. His grandfather, Amir Muhammad Husayn Khan Sardar ('General') became an influential guardian for Karim. Amir Muhammad Husayn Khan Sardar is historically noted for receiving the Legion of Honor from France for his translation and implementation of the Belgian military doctrine in Iran as well as the successful siege of Herat in the course of a campaign. He is also the founder of the orphanage school in Tehran, now well known as the Firuzkuhi Elementary School which utilized resources from the Firuzkuh landholdings to privately fund a vocational school for young boys and orphans. Karim received his primary education in Tehran at the Siruz, Servat, Alliance, and Sultani schools, going on to study logic, theology, and philosophy at the American College in Tehran under the tutelage of teachers such as Aqa 'Abd al-Nabi Kajuri and Aqa sayyid Husayn Mujtahid Kashani. Karim later pursued private study in the circles of learned scholars such as Vahid Dastgirdi, the director of the ''Armaghan'' journal and the president of the Hakim Nizami Literary Society, with whom he studied subjects such as the principles of philosophy, rhetoric, and belles-lettres. At the age of 28, Karim turned to the traditional sciences, studying six years with Shaykh 'Abd al-Nabi Kujuri, Sayyid Husayn Kashani, Sayyad Kazim 'Assar, Mirza Khalil Kamara'i, and Sayyid Mahmud Imam'i Jum'a with whom he studied Arabic literature, logic, theology, Islamic jurisprudence and the principles of Shi'ite doctrine, and mastered the writing and prose and the composition of poetry in Arabic. Karim came to head the Documents Registration and Real Estate Administration from 1947 to 1957 but resigned from government service altogether to pursue freelance writing. His contributions are not limited to the Literary Society of Iran, the Hakim Nizami Literary Society, and the Farhangistan Literary Society. Amiri Firuzkuhi is associated with scholars, writers, and poets in the likes of Rahi Mo'ayyeri, Bahmanyar, Muhammad 'Ali Bamdad, Vahid Dastgirdi, and Sadegh Hedayat as well as with musicians like Habib Sama'i, Abu al-Hasan Saba, and 'Abd al-Husayn Shahnazi. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Seyed Karim Amiri Firuzkuhi」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
