Studying the Persian Studies specialisation at Leiden University is stepping into a distinguished academic tradition in the study of Iranian languages and cultures. Classical and modern Persian literature have been studied here since the university’s foundation in the sixteenth century, which has led to such masterpieces as Saadi’s Rose Garden being translated in situ.
