[117] * * * * * Though there was no direct Oriental influence on Schiller's poetry, there is one dramatic poem of his which indirectly goes back to aPersian source. It is _Turandot_. The direct source for this compositionwas Gozzi's play of the same name in the translation of August ClemensWerthes, which Schiller, however, used with such freedom that his ownplay may be regarded as an original production rather than a version. The Italian poet based his _fiaba_ on the story of Prince Kalaf in th...ePersian tales of Pétis de La Croix. [118] Now, as has been pointed outby scholars, [119] the name of the heroine, who gives the name to theplay, is genuinely Persian, _Tūrān-duχt_, "the daughter of Tūrān, "[120]and although the scene is laid in China, most of the proper names, bothin Gozzi and Schiller, are not at all Chinese, but Persian or Arabic. The oldest known model for the story is the fourth romance of Nidāmī's_Haft Paīkar_, the story of Bahrāmgūr and the Russian princess, written1197.
