Biography
Jalal al-Din Mirza was born in 1827 at the court in
classical Persian literature and the French language.[1]
Jalal al-Din Mirza, during the last years of life, wrote a semi-historical book about the
Khwarazmshahs. The third volume (1871) dealt with the Mongol era to the Zand dynasty.[1] Jalal al-Din Mirza had already become blind at the time of the issuance of the second volume, and had also contracted syphilis (which possibly played a role in his loss of eyesight). He died in 1872, at the age of 46.[1]
