Through a deep analysis of the Shahnameh, Meskoob explores its dual nature as both a historical account and a poetic masterpiece. He highlights the epic's rich tapestry of myths, romance, and political theory, tracing Iran's history from its legendary origins to the decline of the Sasanian dynasty. By shifting the focus from linguistic significance and nationalism to the cultural and philosophical implications of the text, Meskoob offers a fresh perspective on this cornerstone of Persian literature and identity.
