About

Persian, Translated is a database of Persian literature translated into English. The project hopes to catalogue the publishing data for as many works of translation as possible, ideally everything.

This database was designed and implemented by Ali Araghi. The project began as part of his dissertation as a PhD candidate of Comparative Literature, International Writers Track at Washington University in St. Louis. To learn more about him, visit his personal website here.
