Abstract Many articles have been written about Obaid Zakani, his thoughts and works, and his status as a satirist in Persian literature. Due to the volume of works and the continuity of such research, it is necessary to review the published works in order to be familiar with the strengths and weaknesses of this type of research so that its results can be used to fill the gaps in this section. In this research, the thematic and historical course of Obaid pajoohi's scientific articles has been studied and about 70 articles written in the period of 1300 to 1400 have been studied. Articles in six historical periods and in six subjects: Obaid's satire, Obaid's biography, introduction of works, content and theme, rhetorical techniques and satire, comparative studies and study of literary theories in Obaid's works; They have been studied and classified by content analysis and statistics Studies show that most articles in this field were written in the nineties, which in terms of quality have a better variety of topics and analytical quality than previous periods, but still have many shortcomings, including addressing the generalities and not providing statistics in most articles. Lack of mastery of new study methods such as comparative studies as well as literary theories, great importance to the structure of the article and its stereotyping, and less attention is paid to the content, reasoning and scientific analysis. After the 90s, the most articles in the field of Obaid research were written in the 70s, but the articles of the 80s, although in terms of number, are less than the articles of the 70s. In terms of the quality and diversity of the subject, they have a more scientific structure and content than the previous articles.
