Abstract:
Shahnameh is the most significant Persian epic masterpiece and it is the world's lengthiest epic poem written by a single poet. Shahnameh mainly describes mythical and historical dimensions of the Persian Empire in series of stories. The manifestation of love in the stories of Shahnameh is a real stimulus to prowess and epic. In this regard, Ferdowsi delicately paid attention in developing women characters of Shahnameh. In this article, it is tried to investigate mythical, lyrical and social aspects of women in different sections of Shahnameh. Mythical aspects of Shahnameh including zoroastria

Abstract:
The paper focuses on the analysis of the term Yezdistan (Ēzdīstān) attested in a Yezidi legend, having obvious parallels with the Shahnameh’s “Tale of Zahhak”. It is particularly interesting that this plot does not occur in any of the Kurmanji versions of the Shahnameh ever recorded in Armenia and represents, in fact, a separate legend out of the epic context.

Among the poets of past thousand years, nearly ten have remained successful in maintaining their reputation and becoming immortal.

Moreover, he is also recognized for portraying the immorality of an individual’s freedom, independence and honor of the nation. Universal fame and acceptance of Shahnameh has honored every Iranian.

While embodying the image of the genius Nizami Iskander, he opposes the ideas of nationalism, criticizes the unethical nationalist spirit of Ferdowsi’s attitude towards Iskander.

Abstract:
Firdausi's Shahnameh ("The Book of Kings") is a cornerstone of Persian literature, interweaving myth, history, and culture. One of the lesser- explored dimensions of this epic is its symbolic use of numbers, particularly the numbers one, three, and seven, which carry deep mystical and spiritual meanings in Iranian culture. Through these numbers, Firdausi not only structures his narrative but also imbues it with layers of divine and cosmic significance. The number one represents unity and the divine essence, while three symbolizes completeness and perfection, and seven reflects the sacred and c

Abstract:
In Shahnemaeh, we cannot see any express statement about Daqiqi Tusi murder. Ferdowsi's narrative about the murder of Daqiqi is such vague and unclear that has attracted researchers’ attention. Based on Ferdowsi’s opinion, initially, it seems the incentive of Daqiqi murder to be a dramatic process than being a predetermined approach. In another hand, Shahnameh points to the Daqiqi’s bad tempered character. In this regard, Daqiqi murder that is done by his bondservant might have got an interpersonal incentive.

The translation proposed, however, is not based on the original book by Ferdosi, which is written all in verse, but rather, an edited, shorter, and simplified version written in prose, by Mohamad Hosseini, first published in 2013. Nonetheless, in his version, Hosseini included some of the verses from the original poems in order to show the value and the beauty of Ferdosi’s writing. Many trans

Abstract:
The present work examines the role played by oral tradition in the evolution of the Persian (written) epic tradition, which virtually began with the Shadhname of Ferdowsi (ShNF). The text is also the culmination of a long development that stretches back into ancient times. In the process of transmission of narratives, both writing and oral tradition are assumed to have played a role. While Ferdowsi's written sources have been studied, the influence of oral tradition on his work remains largely unexplored. In order to explore oral influence on the ShNF, the thesis suggests a new approach. Based

Book designers and manuscript artists have inserted illustrations into narrative works for centuries now. This practice is an intelligent behaviour that requires specialised knowledge of the text and the external parameters affecting the selection and placement criteria.

The model presented here is a significant improvement to the crudest method of dividing the text into equal parts and inserting one illustration into each part.

In the late 19th century Qajar Dynasty, British imperialism in Iran changed the essence of the Sistan region by imposing a new border line between Iran and Afghanistan. The British redefined territorial boundaries, all influenced by a “colonial gaze”— seeing the region as a miserable space, awaiting reclamation by supposedly more civilized cultures. This paper takes a qualitative, interpretive-historical approach along with visual analysis to examine five historical maps of Sistan as primary sources.
