Download or read book Exile and the Nation written by Afshin Marashi and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2020-06-08 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the aftermath of the seventh-century Islamic conquest of Iran, Zoroastrians departed for India. Known as the Parsis, they slowly lost contact with their ancestral land until the nineteenth century, when steam-powered sea travel, the increased circulation of Zoroastrian-themed books, and the philanthropic efforts of Parsi benefactors sparked a new era of interaction between the two groups. Tracing the cultural and intellectual exchange between Iranian nationalists and the Parsi community during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, Exile and the Nation shows how this interchange led to the collective reimagining of Parsi and Iranian national identity—and the influence of antiquity on modern Iranian nationalism, which previously rested solely on European forms of thought. Iranian nationalism, Afshin Marashi argues, was also the byproduct of the complex history resulting from the demise of the early modern Persianate cultural system, as well as one of the many cultural heterodoxies produced within the Indian Ocean world. Crossing the boundaries of numerous fields of study, this book reframes Iranian nationalism within the context of the connected, transnational, and global history of the modern era.

Download or read book Iran written by Laura K. Egendorf and published by Greenhaven Press, Incorporated. This book was released on 2006 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Give your readers a balanced study of important concepts and issues relating to Iran. Across four chapters, readers will evaluate whether Iran is a threat to global security, what the state of human rights is, how the U.S. should response to Iran, and what the future may bring. Essays are arranged in a for-or-against sequence so more than one divergent viewpoint is shared. Essayist Shirin Ebadi states that women's rights are improving in Iran while Parvan Darabi states that the opposite is true. Golnar Motevalli states that Iranian youths will work for reform while Azadeh Moaveni states that this won't happen anytime soon. By reading two viewpoints like these on the same topic, critical thinking skills are activated, and readers seek to form intelligent opinions for themselves.
Download or read book Iranian Hospitality Afghan Marginality written by Elisabeth Yarbakhsh and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2021-02-11 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Iranian Hospitality, Afghan Marginality, Elisabeth Yarbakhsh unpacks ideas around culture, identity, and the relationship between Iranian citizens and Afghan refugees living in Shiraz, Iran, and surrounding areas. Yarbakhsh highlights the ways in which shifting policies and practices toward refugees over the past forty years have run parallel to the transitive notions of what it means to be Iranian. Yarbakhsh exposes the complex interplay of identity and hospitality as it emerges out of variously competing and intersecting Islamic, historical, and literary narratives of Iranian identity, carefully illustrating how these factors circumscribe Afghan refugee life in the city of Shiraz.
