Need information about Persian Calligraphy and Typefaces

Hello

I am working on my project on Persian calligraphy and typefaces. My intention is to create a book of poetry. There will be pieces from poems of different poets showed in different scripts. I want to write each of the pieces in different font/scripts. That`s why I need information on developing Persian scripts to typefaces, and also I need information about use of typeface instead scripts (history, events etc.).

Throughout that way I want to show a variety of Persian scripts in the past and a variety of typefaces using nowadays.

How could I find that sort of information? I don`t know Persian, so I have difficulties with that.

I would really appreciate your help. Thank you in advance!

There are many types of Persian typefaces and calligraphies but am not sure what do you really in need of?

As I mentioned there are many but above links are just a couple which I could get from my "BinG oogle!"

These might get you started.
