The reality, however, is that the Iranian economy has long been plagued by the regime’s endemic corruption, economic mismanagement, and reckless foreign policy. Iran ranks 146 out of 180 countries listed on Transparency International’s Corruption Perception Index for 2019.

  • Irreverent Persia
    Irreverent Persia IRANIAN IRANIAN SERIES SERIES Poetry expressing criticism of social, political and cultural life is a vital integral part of IRREVERENT PERSIA Persian literary history. Its principal genres – invective, satire and burlesque – have been INVECTIVE, SATIRICAL AND BURLESQUE POETRY very popular with authors in every age. Despite the rich uninterrupted tradition, such texts FROM THE ORIGINS TO THE TIMURID PERIOD have been little studied and rarely translated. Their irreverent tones range from subtle (10TH TO 15TH CENTURIES) irony to crude direct insults, at times involving the use of outrageous and obscene terms. This anthology includes both major and minor poets from the origins of Persian poetry RICCARDO ZIPOLI (10th century) up to the age of Jâmi (15th century), traditionally considered the last great classical Persian poet. In addition to their historical and linguistic interest, many of these poems deserve to be read for their technical and aesthetic accomplishments, setting them among the masterpieces of Persian literature. Riccardo Zipoli is professor of Persian Language and Literature at Ca’ Foscari University, Venice, where he also teaches Conceiving and Producing Photography. The western cliché about Persian poetry is that it deals with roses, nightingales, wine, hyperbolic love-longing, an awareness of the transience of our existence, and a delicate appreciation of life’s fleeting pleasures. And so a great deal of it does. But there is another side to Persian verse, one that is satirical, sardonic, often obscene, one that delights in ad hominem invective and no-holds barred diatribes. Perhaps surprisingly enough for the uninitiated reader it is frequently the same poets who write both kinds of verse.

    The Arabic Novel ﺔ%اوﺮﻟا ﺔ+*(ﻌﻟا ﺔ%اوﺮﻟا PROF. HISHAM MATAR / [email protected] She is free to do what she wants, and free not to do it. Woman at Point Zero by Nawal El Saadawi Prose came before poetry. In the beginning, there was prose. The Tongue of Adam by Abdelfattah Kilito He who has missed out on translation knows not what travail is: None but the warrior is scorched by the fire of war! I find a thousand notion for which there is none akin Among us, and a thousand with none appropriate; And a thousand terms with no equivalent.

HISHAM MATAR / [email protected] Overview Whether seen as a chronicle of social life, a hothouse of ideas and philosophical contemplation, a space for literary invention and the articulation of the quiet as well as the loud moments of existence, the novel is, in its various shapes and forms, a modern phenomenon. Perhaps this is partly why for long time there persisted, both in the minds of some Western and Arabic readers, the notion that the genre is a European invention, and therefore, the Arabic novel in particular, an act of literary mimicry. This is not only erroneous, but it also misses what is actually fascinating about the story of the novel in Arabic. It is a story that tells of a deep engagement with a great literary tradition as well as a commitment to invention.

While the head of the family is brokenhearted over the loss of his lands and olive groves, his offspring becomes involved in the struggle for freedom, peace and home. Their story is told by Amal, the patriarch’s granddaughter, who wants to pass on her family’s story to her own daughter. The Blue between Sky and Water (2015) tells the story of the Barakat family and their powerful women throughout the decades. Expelled from their home in 1947, the family - centering around Nazmiyeh, the eldest daughter - tries to rebuild life in a refugee camp in Gaza amidst violence and deprivations. A few generations later, Nazmiyeh’s Americanborn grandniece Nur rediscovers her roots when she falls in love with a doctor working in Gaza.

Japanese diplomats and itinerary writers as few groups from East Asia have tried to evaluate the conditions of Iran from their own perspectives in order determine the pattern according to which they have to establish ties with this country. These diplomats have provided their own basic report indicating a set of factors including the corruption of administrative and army systems, weakness of educational system, lack of harmony between the clergy and government as well as the failure of the plans of social and economic reforms in Iran that must be taken into consideration in relations with this country. The present study has sought to explore the state of corruption in the administrative system of Naseri Era based on a descriptive method and via library sources and the analysis of available basic reports. Keywords: Naser Al-Din Shah, Government Corruption, Mission Report, Iran-Japan. INTRODUCTION Corruption has a history as long as the civilization in human societies and now it is also one of the key and significant issues among the world countries.
