English: Kalila and Dimna (10th century), derived from the Indian Panchatantra.
- "During the first half of the twelfth century, five centuries after Ibn al-Muqaffaʿ’s canonical but provokingly elusive ʿAbbasid version was produced, a Persian administrator at the Ghaznavid court, Abū al-Maʿālī Naṣrallāh Munshī (d. second half of the twelfth century) wrote a Persian prosimetric version of KD, the Kitāb-i Kalīla va-Dimna (henceforth, NM KD).5" p.7
- "Apart from a few single verses of a translation by Rūdakī (d. ca. 941) which survive as quotations, and a single copy of a 12th century translation by Muḥammad ibn ʻAbd Allāh Bukhārī (De Blois, p. 5), the earliest extant Persian version is by Naṣr Allāh Munshī which he completed around 1144. It became sufficiently popular that 12 illustrated copies survive from the 14th century alone (O’Kane, pp. 41-3) including Or.13506, illustrated below, which dates from AH 707 (1307/8)." [1]
