The middle of the eighteenth century reportedly witnessed the emergence of the new literary movement in Persian poetry, called the “bāzgasht-e adabi,” or literary return, which rejected the seventeenth-century mainstream Indian or tāza-guʾi style. This literary movement recently merits increased attention from many scholars who are interested in wider Persianate cultures. This article explores the reception of this movement in late eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century Iran and the role played by the Qajar royal court in it, mainly by the analysis of a specific sub-genre of tazkeras, called “royal-commissioned tazkeras,” which were produced from the reign of the second Qajar monarch Fath-ʿAli Shāh onward. A main focus will be on the reciprocal relationship between the court poets/literati and the shah, which presumably somehow affected our understanding of Persian literature today.

据报道，十八世纪中叶见证了波斯诗歌中新的文学运动的兴起，这种文学运动被称为“ bāzgasht-eadabi ”（文学回归），它拒绝了17世纪的印度主流或tāza-guʾi风格。最近，这一文学运动吸引了许多对更广泛的波斯文化感兴趣的学者的关注。本文主要通过分析tazkera的一个特定子流派，即“皇家授权的tazkera ” ，来分析18世纪末和19世纪初伊朗对这一运动的接受程度以及Qajar皇家法院在其中的作用。s”，是第二任卡扎尔君主法斯-阿里·沙阿（Fath-ʿAliShāh）以后的统治时期产生的。主要焦点将集中在宫廷诗人/文人与国王之间的对等关系，这大概以某种方式影响了我们今天对波斯文学的理解。
