Abstract

For many years, ancient Persian texts, which are among the most precious heritages of the past, are often printed in an improper way by those who are not qualified with the technic of editing, and the name "edition" is given to them. In this article, while listing some reasons for this, we have criticized one of these works. "Munisnāmīh", written by Abu Bakr bin Khusrow al-Ustād, is a text belonging to the 6th century AH, which has recently been printed in a very erroneous form. The editor of this book has misread, misrecorded, misunderstood and explained the text wrongly in many places.
