The present article examines the hidden themes in the historiography of medieval Iran. The purpose of writing this article is to answer these three questions: What are the hidden themes? How can the existence of hidden themes in traditional Iranian historiography be proven? What are the different examples of hidden themes in the historical books of medieval Iran? The hidden themes are hidden and implied by traditional historians in historical texts. Analysis of the content of historical texts shows that traditional historians sometimes conveyed messages to readers through hidden themes. Although attention to hidden themes can provide a better understanding of the content of historical texts and the functions of traditional historiography, this topic has not been much considered by researchers. Therefore, in the present article, the historical books of the Samanid period up to the Mongol invasion have been selected to show how historians communicated with their audiences through hidden themes in these works. The findings suggest that historians have implicitly conveyed messages to readers through hidden themes, depending on their intentions. These messages are mostly about teaching things like proper governance practices,, event analysis, and genealogy.
Keywords: Hidden Themes, Traditional Iran Historiography, historiography of medieval Iran, Historians, Message Transmission.
