A multilingual publication titled “Imadaddin Nasimi. But I can not fit into this world…” dedicated to the life and works of the prominent Azerbaijani poet and thinker Imadaddin Nasimi, was presented to the Presidential Library. Prepared with the support of the Heydar Aliyev Foundation, the book, compiled in Azerbaijani, English, and Russian, serves to present the classical literary and philosophical heritage on an international scale.
A special section of the publication presents 47 selected works by the brilliant poet, who lived for 47 years, based on a symbolic approach. This approach highlights the poetic and philosophical integrity of Nasimi's creative work. The book also sheds scientific light on newly discovered facts about the poet's life, his role in the development of Turkic-language poetry, his contributions to the formation of the Azerbaijani literary language, and his philosophical worldview.
The publication presents the symbolic poetic language referred to as "bird language," which holds a significant place in Nasimi's creative work, his ideological and philosophical views on the Hurufism movement, and his connections to the scientific and cultural environment of the Shirvanshahs' state period. Simultaneously, the systematized presentation of terms and proper nouns used in the poet's oeuvre is of research importance.
The Presidential Library expresses its gratitude to the Heydar Aliyev Foundation for presenting this valuable publication to its book collection.
