Accordingly, with a brief review of Bahâr’s academic career and his studies of <em>Shâhnâme</em>, these influences can be studied under three categories: 1. the praising of <em>Shâhnâme</em> and Ferdowsi; 2. the use of epic settings and descriptions; and 3. the application of the allusions of <em>Shâhnâme</em> in his Divan. Examples of these influences are extracted from his <em>Divân</em> and, in some cases, their relations with the sociopolitical issues have been studied. Bahâr, in the different stages of his life, has had different attitudes towards political issues and accordingly has got various influences from <em>Shâhnâme</em>.
