520    Kashefi's Anvar-e Sohayli (15th c. A.D.) is a Persian 
       rewriting of the timeless and influential Kalila wa-Dimna 
       text, done at the Timurid court. Christine van Ruymbeke 
       offers a first in-depth analysis of the contents and style
       of this important text and also addresses the Kalila wa-
       Dimna field across its full rewriting history. This 
       analysis shows how Kashefi's additions function as an 
       invaluable commentary that opens up our understanding and 
       the appreciation of this seminal text. This studies 
       revisits several received ideas and current 
       misapprehensions about the text and shows why it has been 
       such an international best-seller before being unjustly 
       relegated to children's literature. In Van Ruymbeke's 
       words, Kalila wa-Dimna is a grim text, exposing the 
       mechanisms of sophisticated psychological manipulation and
       exploring universal philosophical themes, known since 
       Antiquity and still relevant today.
