  • Displaced Narratives of Iranian Migrants and Refugees: Constructions of Self and the Struggle for Representation

    Displaced Narratives of Iranian Migrants and Refugees: Constructions of Self and the Struggle for Representation

    Displaced Narratives of Iranian migrants and Refugees: Constructions of Self and the Struggle for Representation. Submitted by Mammad Aidani Submitted in total fulfillment of the requirements of the degree for Philosophy in the Faculty of Arts, Education and Human Development School of Psychology at the Victoria University, December 2007 1 “I Mammad Aidani declare that the PhD thesis entitled Displaced Narrative of Iranian migrants and refugees: Construction of Self and the Struggle for Representation is no more than 100,000 words in length including quotes and exclusive of tables, figures, appendices, bibliography, references and footnotes. This thesis contains no material that has been submitted previously, in whole or in part , for the award of any other academic degree or diploma. Except where otherwise indicated, this thesis is my won work”. Signature Date 2 Abstract This thesis discusses the multiple narratives of Iranian migrants and refugees living in Melbourne, Australia. The narratives are constructed by men and women who left Iran immediately after the 1979 revolution; the Iran – Iraq war; and Iranians who are recent arrivals in Australia. The narratives of the participants are particularly influenced and contextualized by the 1979 revolution, the 1980-1988 Iran – Iraq War and the post 9/11 political framework. It is within these historical contexts, I argue that Iranian experiences of displacement need to be interpreted. These historical periods not only provide the context for the narratives of the participants but it also gives meaning to how they reconstruct their identities and the emotions of their displacement. This thesis also argues that Iranian migrant and refugee narratives are part of a holistic story that is united rather than separated from one another.

Some cities have summer weather in winter, or have spring or autumn weather; at the same time in summer you might find some regions covered with snow, icicles or experiencing rain and breeze of spring. Iran is the land of history and culture, not only because of its Pasargad and Persepolis, Chogha Zanbil, Naqsh-e Jahan Square, Yazd and Shiraz, Khuzestan and Isfahan, and its tangible heritage inscribed in the UNESCO World Heritage List; indeed its millennial civilization and thousands historical and archeological monuments and sites demonstrate variety and value of religious and spiritual heritage, rituals, intact traditions of this country as a sign of authenticity and splendor.

    Nature's Bead Embroidery Presented by Eleanor Pigman

    July 2015 Nature's Bead Embroidery Presented by Eleanor Pigman Tuesday, July 21 at 7:30 p.m. Social half-hour at 7 pm with coffee/tea Courtyard Marriott, 5555 Shellmound, Emeryville, 94605. The parking lot is a gated surface lot around the hotel. Bring your parking ticket into the hotel; get it validated after the meeting and BSNC will pay the parking fee. Members free with membership card, non-members $5 Eleanor Pigman's opening page shows a life-like jewel toned tropical fish. If this is any indication of her presentation on July 21st, we are in for an unusual treat. She will share her artistic journey beginning with the early influences she experienced growing up in New York City to finally discovering bead embroidery. Eleanor fell into the world of bead embroidery after she created a bead embroidered portrait of Barack Obama for a moveon.org contest and was one of the 50 finalist. Her piece was published, and was given a Congressional Award for “keeping hope alive through art”. This has propelled her to move forward with her work. Another piece is part of a permanent exhibition with NOAA the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration in St. Petersburg, FL. She will discuss her personal relationship with beads - how creating order using beads is a therapeutic experience which all beaders have realized ~ she had just kicked it up a notch which her presentation will expansively show all who attend the meeting. Eleanor is trying to create the impossible. As a self taught artist, she is always pushing the boundaries in her artistic process.
