Abstract

In 2018, Dr. Mahmoud Abedi published another revision of the book of Seirul Mulūk by Khwāja Niẓām-ul-Mulk Ṭūsī. From the textual point of view, this revision does not have many differences from the previous editions of this text (such as the edition by Hubert Dark and the edition by Jafar Shuar); Because the basic manuscript of these prints is also the well-known manuscript of the Nakhchivani library, which was also used in the mentioned editions. On the other hand, the reporter of the new edition of this book (Dr. Abedi) has added some notes in which more or less some inadequacies are found. This brief essay was written after reading the text and having a short view on its notes, which is presented here in three parts:
1) False recordings
  2) Semantic deficiencies in vocabulary
  3) Missions and unsaid meanings
