A Modified Missing Version of Hafez

Some years ago, Bastani Parizi, in two issues of Hafizology (number eighth and ninth) introduced one of the virtuosic Hafiziologists (Majdzade Sahba) and his work on Hafez (a few words on Hafez and his poems) that both are ignored in research circles. Majdzade Sahba, the son of Majd al-Din Kermani (one of the elders of the Constitutional Revolution), has had a copy of Hafez’s collection and used it in his work. This version, based on Majdzade and other great figures like Bastani Parizi, Abbas Eghbal, Ghasem Ghani, and the ex-head of Isfahan archeology, is an exclusive one in having verses and aspects which were not in other versions of Hafez’s collections. Unfortunately, the fate of this current version is unavailable, but there are indications of this version in Majdzade’s work on Hafez, and Ghasem Ghani referred to one of them. But, there are remaining issues, some are unique and are in line with Hafez’s style and thought. The study of some aspects in this work, which to the best of the researcher’s knowledge, is based on the compatibility with other famous manuscripts and Hafez's stylistic reasons, which indicate the value of the remaining verses of this version.
