001451427 520__ $$aThis book presents an English-language translation of Risālā-yi Muīnīya, or the Muīnīya Epistle. Risālā-yi Muīnīya is one of the earliest known works of Nasīr al-Dīn Tūsī (1201-1274), an intellectual luminary of the 13th century CE. The work is notable for the choice of Tūsī's native Persian as the language of the text. In addition, Tūsī organized his volume into a four-part structure, which went on to become a popular template for the Islamic astronomers who succeeded him. This book helped ensure the patronage of Tūsī's courtly patrons during his decades-long stay with the Ismaīlīs, as well as the continuation of his remarkable career under the first Ilkhanid rulers of Persia. This translation helps make this notable treatise accessible to English language readers. It is among a handful of English translations of major astronomical works dealing with hay'a/cosmography in the Islamic world. Subsequently Tūsī was to pen his own commentary on the work (the Hall-i Mushkilāt-i Muīnīya, or A solution to the difficulties of the Muīnīya) and he used this occasion to discuss his celebrated mathematical formulation "the Tūsī Couple" (a concept that he merely hinted at in the Risālā-yi Muīnīya).
