Abstract

The life and times of Nāder Shah Afšār (1688-1747) have been fictionalized in an entertaining account entitled Ālam-Āra-ye Nāderī, which was written shortly after the warrior king's death by a certain Mohammad Kāzem of Marv (in Transoxania). A prominent character in the book is Zād Kān (= Āzād khan) the Sly (or ayyār in Persian). Now, the ayyārs were a class of chivalrous and clever thieves who flourished in Iran all through the Middle Ages. They excelled in feats of daring, were masters of disguise, and doubled also as con artists and like Robin Hood, they robbed the rich to help the poor. No wonder then that they became the heroes of Iran's earliest entertaining narratives, such as Samak-e Ayyār.In this paper, the author examines the book, analyzes the actions of Zād Kān, quotes a full episode from the narrative, and praises Mohammad Kāzem's easy and fluent prose, which he finds especially enjoyable for a period when the formal writing style of the day was one of artifice and artificiality.
