Abstract:
the star tile Apart from beauty and eye-catching, is noteworthy for yet another reason, adorning the tiles with poems by high-profile poets that have doubled the beauty of these tiles. Paying attention to these inscriptions can in some cases be a guide to literary scholars, as the tile recordings sometimes differ from literary manuscripts, The difference most often seen in multiple tiles, probably each produced in a different workshop, is the same, and may indicate the prevalence of that recording during tile production. On the other hand, in some cases, because of the tile year on which the tile was written, the attribution of some poems to a particular poet can be ruled out because of the precedence of producing these tiles over the year of the poet’s birth. It should be noted, however, that in some cases there are differences due to individual scribe error, which require careful use of the inscriptions on these tiles. Because the authors of these tiles were also not error free. The main question of this study is: Can golden tile inscriptions be considered as a basic version? And if so, to what extent can these inscriptions be considered important? The main hypothesis can be put forward as follows: Since tiles are manufactured in a wide range and in different centers, in cases where all the tiles indicate a particular form of verse recordings as opposed to literary manuscripts, tile inscriptions may be given more value. And these tiles are used for critical correction, but for poems that only represent one tile, it should be used more cautiously and deductive correction, in which case only tile inscriptions can be considered as a complement to manuscripts. The research method was based on reading the inscriptions on the tiles and then comparing the Rubaiyat and verses inscribed on the tiles with the recorded form in the literary manuscript..
