Another Look at Ghooniyeh Version and Foroozānfar's Collation of Divān Shams

While collating Kolliāt-e Shams based on Ghooniyeh Version 770, Towfigh Sobhāni extracted some cases which are different from those in the version used by Foroozānfar and through reasoning concluded that the Ghooniyeh Version is more authentic. If the comparison is to be based on the Ghooniyeh Version and the version finally published by Foroozānfar, the number of the differences will know no limits because Foroozānfar did not consider the Ghooniyeh Version as his only authentic text. In this article the 93 cases mentioned by Sobhāni are once more examined in order to show which record is more authoritative.
