Iranian Dialect Literature of the Classical Period: The Philological Investigation of Old Ṭabarī (10-15 cent. C. E.)

该项目旨在对老ṬAbarī的语言和文学进行文献学研究。这种语言自1.000多年前就在伊朗北部的历史地区Ṭabestān/现代的Māzandarān省被使用和书写，它的现代继承者被称为新Ṭabarī或Māzandarānī。从公元10世纪到15世纪，旧Ṭabarī被广泛用于文学(诗歌和散文)和宗教教育(宗教学校、古兰经研究)，但它的使用范围不如波斯语。那些幸存到今天的旧Ṭabarī文学作品，大多是阿拉伯作品的行间翻译，只代表了繁荣文学的一小部分，到目前为止几乎没有人研究过。通过编辑和翻译具有代表性的部分文本，该项目旨在描述旧Ṭabarī的语法和词汇的显著特征，并提供查阅旧Ṭabarī的重要文献，特别是古兰经(塔夫西尔)的扎伊迪注释传统。这也将提供一个更好的途径，以了解扎伊迪什叶派在13至16世纪的历史。

The project aims to investigate philologically the language and literature of Old Ṭabarī. This language has been spoken and written since over 1.000 years in the north of Iran, in the historical region of Ṭabarestān / the modern province of Māzandarān, and its modern successor is called New Ṭabarī or Māzandarānī. From the 10 to 15 century C.E., Old Ṭabarī was widely used in literature (poetry and prose) and religious education (madrasa, Quran studies), but it was less widely written than Persian. Those parts of Old Ṭabarī literature that have survived to this day, mostly interlinear translations of Arabic works, represent only a small part of a thriving literature, and have hardly been worked upon so far. Through editing and translating a representative part of texts, the project aims at describing the salient features of grammar, and the lexicon, of Old Ṭabarī, and to provide an access to the important literature in Old Ṭabarī, especially to the Zaydi commentary tradition of the Quran (tafsir). This would also provide a better access to the history of Zaydi Shiism during the 13-16 centuries.
