Zoroastrianism

Zoroastrian literature is generally categorized by language and historical period. It begins with the Avestan corpus (the Avesta and related liturgical texts), followed by Middle Persian literature from the Sasanian and post-Sasanian periods, and later developments in New Persian and Gujarati, especially among Zoroastrian communities in Iran and India. These categories reflect both linguistic shifts and evolving religious, legal, and devotional traditions within Zoroastrianism.
