On the Sidelines of Khorramshāhi and Jāvīd's Dīvān-e Hafiz

In this article, the author is going to study and examine Qerāatgozīni-e Intiqādi-e Dīvān-e Hafiz by Bahāoddīn Khorramshāhi and Hāshim Jāvīd. In the introduction of the book, the authors first of all introduce six scientific critical corrections of Hafiz’s Dīvān which are as follows: 1. Eivazi and Behrooz, 2. Khānlari, 3. Neisāri, 4. Jalāl Nāiini and noorāni Visāl, 5. Sāye, 6. Khalkhāli version corrected by Khorramshāhi. Then they chose Qazvīni’s version of Hafiz’s Dīvān as the main text; and write the differences which are found among the six mentioned copies in the footnote. Of course, as they said, in cases where Qazvini recordings were considered to be wrong, they replaced it with one of the other six versions and explained the reasons for their selection and replacement as well. The author of this paper is going to point out some of the general and minor methodological problems of the book.
