Abstract
Shihāb al-Dīn Abu''l- Ḥasan Ṭalheh Mivazī was a prominent quatrain poet of the late 5th and early 6th centuries Hijri. His name first appears in Tadhkirat al-Lubāb -ul-Albāb by Sadīd al-Dīn Muḥammad ‘Awfī in the section on poets of Khorasan. ‘Awfī has quoted eighteen quatrains from Ṭalheh’s works, and other biographers have also recorded these details and poems in their books. Seifī Neishābūrī, in the late 6th century Hijri, cited Ṭalheh''s quatrains in his book "Rasā''il al-''Ushāq" and included 34 couplets in the midst of his writings. "Nuzhat al-Majālis" by Jamāl Khalīl Shirwānī is another important source on the quatrains of Abu''l-Ḥasan Ṭalheh. In this article, the scarce information about the life of this poet and 85 quatrains attributed to him is provided from the three mentioned sources and five other references. The predominant themes of Ṭalheh''s quatrains revolve around love and the depiction of the states of lover and beloved.
