description Abstract                                                                “The History of Iranian Kings” is one of the works of Vaghar Shirazi, son of Vesal Shirazi, in the literary return period and 13th century AD. It has a special significance for its conformity with the literary taste of the author’s age. Like his own models from the four periods of Pishdadian, Kayanian, Parthian and Sassanid, the author has taken advantage of ancient Iranian history and he has tried to use pure Persian language and Khorasani literary style in his writing; historically, too, he has attempted to play a role in the archeology of his time. Based on a descriptive-analytical method, and relying on the manuscript, this study attempts to examine the Pishdadian section of the manuscript of “The History of Iranian Kings” (Tarikh-e Salatin-e Ajam), to identify the sources used by Vaghar Shirazi, and to investigate its contemporary cultural condition.
