Research works

Some of his works in English are:

Literary criticism and comparative literature

Zarrinkoob wrote a book called "Naqd-e Adabi" (نقد ادبی, "Literary Criticism") covering comparative literature and Persian literary criticism.

Rumi and Erfan

Zarrinkoub also wrote about the Persian poet Molana Jalaleddin Balkhi (Rumi) and his works. Zarrinkoub's "Serr-e Ney" (سرّ نی, "Secret of the Reed"), "Pelleh-Pelleh ta Molaqat-e Khuda" (پله‌پله تا ملاقات خدا, "Step by Step until Visiting God") and "Bahr dar Koozeh" (بحر در کوزه, "Sea in a Jug") are critiques and comparative analyses of Rumi's Masnavi.

Zarrinkoub's research works on Hafez and Persian mysticism resulted in several books including "Az Kuche-ye Rendan" (از کوچهٔ رندان) and "Arzesh-e Miras-e Sufiyeh" (ارزش میراث صوفیه).

History of Persia

Zarrinkoub wrote "Two Centuries of Silence" (دو قرن سکوت)[3] on Islamic history and Ruzegaran (روزگاران) (The Ages) (Iran's history from the beginning to the fall of the Pahlavi dynasty),[4] which covers the 3,000-year history of Iran since the Aryans migrated to the Iranian plateau.
