Vesal Shirazi (1782–1846)

Born 1782 CE, died 1846 CE.

Vesal Shirazi (Persian: وصال شیرازی; 1782 – 1845) was an Iranian poet, who wrote in the style of Bazgasht-e adabi, which advocated for the return of the Khorasani and Iraqi styles in Persian literature. Some historians consider him to have been the most prominent poet under Fath-Ali Shah Qajar (r. 1797–1834).
