    The Kitāb al-Aghānī (the Book of Songs) is one of the most important sources for  Arabic literature and Islamic history. It was compiled during the first half of the tenth  century - a pivotal period for the formation of the Islamic sectarian identities, which  is the subject of keen and ongoing scholarly debate and fundamental to understanding  of the later Shīʿī Islam. While its compiler, Abū al-Faraj al-Iṣfahānī (died after  356/967), is generally viewed as a "Zaydī Shīʿī", no study has engaged in depth with  the manifestation of his sectarian perspective in the Aghānī. This book addresses the  question of whether al-Iṣfahānī's sectarian perspective can be discerned in the Aghānī  via analysis based primarily upon redaction criticism. By examining the compiler's  interventions, this book argues that al-Iṣfahānī to some extent presents past people  and events central to the Shīʿī worldview in accordance with his sectarian affiliation.  Furthermore, this work questions the label "Zaydī" that has been attached to al-  Iṣfahānī. Based on textual analyses of the Aghānī, as well as on evidence from his  Maqātil al-Ṭālibīyīn ("The Ṭālibid Martyrs") and other evidence from the tenth-  century context, this book suggests that al-Iṣfahānī's religious thought can be  construed as a "mild" form of Shīʿism - in the sense that it entail neither belief in a  specific lineage of imams nor repudiation of most of the Companions including the  first three caliphs - but cannot necessarily be identified with any sect, as set down in  the heresiography. It is also suggested that this kind of Shīʿism may have been  promoted by al-Iṣfahānī's patron, the Būyid vizier, Abū Muḥammad al-Muhallabī  (291-352/903-963), in the complex sectarian context of mid-tenth- century Iraq
