description The book of the Theatre in Safavid Period by Yaghoob Azhand is a work that historically mentions the theatrical performances common in the Safavid period and the origins and backgrounds of these practices, and is therefore of particular interest to historians. In this article, first, by briefly comparing this work with some other works published in the field of history of theater in Iran, we outline its place among these exegetical works and its distinguished aspects. In the following, while reviewing the method of segmenting the method of presenting this historiography and comparing it with the conventional methods of theater historiography, we have criticized this work as a work in the field of Iranian theater history. In the same way, using the theory of performance, some of the species mentioned in this work have been examined as executive types, and their strengths and weaknesses have been expressed. Finally, by examining the general approach of the work in relation to the historiography of the play, the work’s status is evaluated as an academic work.
