Abstract
Nezami Aruzi is the first author articulating Ferdowsi's life in Chāhar-Maghāle.
Among his findings, he gives an account of Ferdowsi’s life which was related by Amir Moazi (in 514 A.H.) and Abdol-Alrazagh before him. Although this significant account which includes the best events of Ferdowsi's later life has been considered in recent researches, it has not been criticized in detail. This article first examines the mentioned part and then evaluates each part based on reliable historical sources.
