How is the sleepless bird of ancient Greek mythology, the hoopoe, connected to the medieval Persian poetic tradition?
Three prominent scholars explore the symbolic significance of this bird across different periods and cultures, focusing both on Aristophanes' *The Birds* and the much later *Conference of the Birds* by the Persian poet Attar – works in which the hoopoe plays a central role.
