Abstract
Zahiraddin Nishabouri, author of Seljuqnameh, and Muhammad ibn Ali ibn Suleiman Ravandi author of Rahat al-Sudur wa Awat al-Surur, are two Persian historians, belonging to the Seljuk period. There can be seen some similarities and differences between their books. The present study aims to study the historical perspective and historiography of the two historians using comparative and analytical methods. It also aims to obtain similarities and differences between these two historians. The results show that Ravandi got the bulk of his book from the Seljuqnameh, but the difference in historical perspective of the two historians and their different goals appeared in their historiography
