Contrast between Shahnameh of Ferdowsi and Tarikhgorar of ThaalebiMarghani %K Comparative %K Shahnameh %K Ferdowsi %K Tarikh o gharar e akhbar e Molouk e alFors and Seyarohom %K ThaalebiMarghani %R %X There are high similarities between the shahnameh of ferdowsi and the first volume of the tarikh o ghorar of thaalebimarghani which related to the life of kings of Persian before Islam. Perhaps the thaalebi had seen the Masterpiece of the Ferdowsi with the help of sultan’s Brother Mahmoud Ghaznavi in the library of palace and had used his book in writing of his history. The questions that arise from this essay are: 1- did thaalebi used the ferdows shahnameh has written the first volume of his history? 2- What are the similarities and differences between the two books? 3- And what are the reasons for this similarities and differences? We tried to answer these questions by the exact compare between the texts of two books and using the historical reviews on the French school of comparative literature and using the analytic and descriptive methods. The result of this research was that Ferdowsi and thaalebiMarghany in writing their books have used abundant resources but there main source was the prose Shahnameh of Abu Mansur and this book was the reason of similarity and proximity of these two books. %U https://jalc.sbu.ac.ir/article_98239_9dfbb05f7796d7acbaaaa5f38e5d104a.pdf
