Abstract :

         In this article, for the first time we have studied "Focus" and its various types as one of the most important and most frequently used stylistic features in Nasir al-Din Shah Qajar's diaries with a linguistic, literary and stylistic approach, along with a descriptive - analytical - statistical method. For this purpose, first we have shown the most important methods of "Focus" in speech in the form of a diagram, divided in two parts: Morphology and Syntax, by using the most important opinions of researchers and our personal efforts as well; Then we have examined the most important methods of "Focus" in these notes. By analyzing the obtained data, we have shown a new aspect of Nasir al-Din Shah's personality; Finnaly by selecting random examples from the original copy and confronting the corrections made from these works, we have shown that the misreadings, misunderstandings and unexplained eliminations made by the editors in these corrections, have made them unreliable and invalid for literary and linguistic research..
