	Shahnama
		Ab'ul Qasim Mansur (Firdausi) was born into a dehqan (farmer) class in the city of Tus which used to be close to what is now Mashad.
		Firdausi led a modest life; however, he needed the support of a generous patron to advance his work.
		During Firdausi's lifetime (940?-1020?), the only great patron of literature was Sultan Mahmud of Ghazni, who was a Turkish Sultan who conquered Central Asia during late 10th and early 11th century.

	DAWN - Features; July 3, 2002
		What’s that which harmed Mahmud most: he didn’t keep his word with Firdausi and his dismantling the Muslim principalities of Mansura and Multan along with his intermittent invasions of India culminating in the ransacking of the temple at Somnath.
		It was after Firdausi remained glued to it for years that the poet Unsari took him to the court of Mahmud.
		One of the reasons why Firdausi couldn’t have his way to Mahmud’s heart was that one of his bosom friends, Fazal bin Ahmed, had made a lot of enemies at Mahmud’s court and they did everything possible to keep a masterpiece like Shahnama remain underrated.

	Dom Research Center - Reprint Series - Romanies in the Middle East
		Firdausi relates that, in order to relieve the hard life of the peasants in Iran, the king Bahram Gaur asked his father-in-law to send from India 10,000 musicians.
		Now Firdausi wrote (in 1011 AD) that these people, the Luri, were still nomadising in his day.
		In Iran they are considered a distinct people from the Koli who do speak a variety of Romani and are part of the later larger wave of emigration from India.

	Aldebaran/Firdausi Subsector
		Always a low-population Subsector, Firdausi never had a sufficient local workforce to support a significant industrial base.
		Emigration out of the subsector during the war only made matters worse, and subsequent attempts to attract additional population to the subsector in the postwar years have met with only limited success.
		Firdausi has a total population of 26.24 billion, and the highest tech level is D at Firdaus.

	Pyankov - Scythian genealogical legend in Rustamiada - Transoxiana Eran ud Aneran
		In Firdausi's poem this story was included into the legend about "seven camps" of Rustam, or about his seven feats which he performed on the way to Mazandaran (Vol.I. Lines 11597-12356).
		Fortunately, we can compare Firdausi's story about the meeting between Rustam and the dragon with more early version of the same story which was shown with the help of murals in the ancient Penjikent.
		And it is interesting fact, that in Firdausi's story some details, limited by that genealogical meaning, were preserved, though the content of myth was changed.

	The Cypress of Kashmar and Zoroaster
		I) some further memoranda may now be included concerning the cypress of Kashmar, owing to the fact that this far-famed tree is of special significance in connection with Zoroaster.
		As Mustaufi wrote three centuries after Firdausi, this difference may be due to another tradition or to some manuscript variant, but more likely it is due to an oversight, since he seems to be quoting from memory.
		We may incidentally recall here, as iswell known, that Firdausi ascribes the entire account of Zoroaster and the Fireworshipers to Dakiki.

	H-Net Review: Raziuddin Aquil on The Oral Background of Persian Epics: Storytelling and Poetry
		The failure is explained in terms of Firdausi's efforts to use the new medium of writing to break with tradition and enhance the readability of his text.
		Thus, according to Yamamoto, Firdausi modeled his work "intuitively on oral performance, the form and technique of which were deeply imprinted in his consciousness through his experience as a listener; this was probably how he thought of heroic narratives" (p.
		Confronted by the dominance of such groups as the chauvinistic Arabs (who in a typical example of "Othering" had disdainfully dubbed the Persians as a dumb people), adventurous Turks, and the resurgent Afghans, the Iranian self-perception hinged on the glorification of the militaristic and political achievements of the ancient kings.
