Abstract

The manuscript No. 2190 (row No. 500) in the library of Golestān Palace, which is by mistake known as Qāzi Nezāmoddin Heravi’s Poetical Works, is the most ancient manuscript of Poetical Works by Mollā Nezām-e Mo’amāie Astarābādi. This manuscript includes a significant number of the poems composed by this Timurid poet which can’t be found in any other manuscripts, and thus are not available in the printed version published by the Publication of Library and Document Center of Iran Parliament in 2013. In the following paper, the author is going to examine the content of the oldest manuscript of Poetical Works by Mollā Nezām-e Astarābādi, and compares it with the printed version.
