Abstract

In the following paper, the author discusses some supplementary issues about Sheikh Montajeb Al-Din’s Listand Ibn Shahrāshūb’sMa’ālem Al-Olamā. He firstly talks of the authors whose names have not been mentioned by Sheikh Montajeb Al-Din in his translation, and Sheikh has not attributed any books to them.Having presented a short biography of these authors, the writer of the article, in two different parts, names and explains about the authors who definitely passed away before Sheikh Tūsi and Najjāshi’s period of time or around 460 (AH);however, one cannot find a translation for them in Sheikh Tūsi’sList and Najjāshi’sRijāl.  Therefore, these names are the ones added by Montajeb Al-Din and Ibn Shahrāshūbin order to eliminate the defects of Sheikh Tūsi’sListand Najjāshi’sRijāl.
