I have always wanted to create meaningful work. When it came to my scholarship, I wanted it to speak to the world unfolding around me so as to make it somehow better. What I have come to understand as better requires conversations, which need participants. My betterment occurred as a result of amazing conversations with fantastic people. After a serendipitous introduction to Lane Bove one night at a restaurant, she invited me to consider a life of the mind at Loyola Marymount University, where I was then molded by the tender, yet commanding hands of Theresia De Vroom, Paul Harris, K.J. Peters, and Daniel Smith-Christopher. Studying with Guy Bennett, Dennis Phillips, and Paul Vangelisti at Otis College of Art and Design opened my eyes to a world of poetry and ideas I had never encountered before and it was also there that I began to deeply immerse myself in the theories of translation that evolved into this dissertation. When I decided to pursue my doctorate, I applied broadly, and tried to visit most of the campuses I had applied to. However, upon meeting Nasrin Rahimieh there was no doubt in my mind that the University of California, Irvine (UCI) would be the best place for me. My dissertation committee all share a unique balance of deep scholarly investment and sincere passion for their students’ development. More blessed than lucky, working with these people made even the most challenging parts of the process exciting. Thank you for everything Jack Miles, Steven Mailloux, Ngũgĩ wa Thiong’o, and of course Nasrin. My years at UCI allowed me the opportunity to learn from so many other people critical to the cultivation of this work: Jonathan Alexander, Eyal Amiran, Touraj Daryaee, Daniel Gross, Lynda Haas, Susan Jarratt, Adriana Johnson, Jane Newman, Chris O’Neal, Rei Terada, Gabi Schwab, and John Smith. And there could have been no way that I could have made it through my time there with out the support and guidance of Bindya Baliga and Barbara Caldwell. This work would not have been possible without the tremendous institutional support I received during my time in the #Department of Comparative Literature in the School of Humanities at UCI. I am grateful for the Schaeffer and Pedagogical Fellowships, and myriad generous awards and travel grants from the Departments of English and Comparative Literature, as well as the Persian Studies Center and the Humanities Collective that allowed me to #develop and complete this project. Of course, this project is founded upon the inspired work of Shahrnush Parsipur and all of the brilliant people who interpreted her and helped to circulate Women without Men around the world and into my hands. Shoja Azari, Faridoun Farrokh, Steven Henry Madoff, Shirin Neshat, Jocelyn Sharlet, and Kamran Talattof, I cannot begin to express how grateful I am to you all, not just for your work, but how kindly and openly you shared your experiences and answered my barrage of questions. And there is perhaps no stronger measure of my life than the quality of my friends. Der Baca, Scott Bloom, Mike Boucher, Alex Ebert, and Ivan Puchalt – the men who have forged more powerful memories in my life than anybody else. Brian Garcia and Tae Sung who trudged a parallel path with me at UCI, teaching me so much through all of it. So many miles pedaled with Sean Drake, yet never enough rocks climbed with Nathan Fulton – both of you helped develop my ideas and strengthen my body. Some of my greatest teachers have never been inside of a classroom with me, but have taught me such crucial lessons in my life. And two of them, Dan Pallotta and Fariborz Azhakh, I am fortunate enough to now even call my friends. Thank v you Jen Bell, without whom this dissertation would still be riddled with comma splices, split infinitives, and some pretty murky concepts. The Club, Phillip Walsh and Thomas Malugen Gilbreath III: powerful and clean. I once said that if I received my PhD for no other reason than to make my family happy that would have been more than enough reason for me. They are ever an unwavering source of support and the purest affection I’ve ever known. Thank you to my grandparents Mostafa and Soltan for teaching me what unconditional love feels like and my uncles Kambiz and Kaveh for lovingly showing me how to be a man. Grateful that my family is made up of people I’m thrilled to have as friends even if we weren’t related: Alice, Babak, Borzou, Dokhi, Isabella, Laleh, Laurie, Mahnaz, Nadia, Naghmeh, Neda, Neghin, Negar, Shant, Sophia, and Yeganeh – I love you all so much. And there is nobody else who has been more important on this journey or taught me more in life than Lida Khanverdi. My lion, friend, mother, and the best version of sheer goodness I have ever experienced in my life. Even if this work does not make the world better, because of all of these people, I am the best I’ve ever been. Thank you. vi CURRICULUM VITAE Ali Massoud Meghdadi Education Doctor of Philosophy in Comparative Literature, University of California, Irvine; 2014 Doctoral Dissertation Committee: Nasrin Rahimieh (chair), Steven Mailloux, Jack Miles, and Ngũgĩ Wa Thiong’o Doctoral Qualification Exam Committee: Nasrin Rahimieh (chair), Susan Jarratt, Steven Mailloux, Jack Miles, and Ngũgĩ Wa Thiong’o Master of Arts in Comparative Literature, University of California, Irvine; 2009, Summa Cum Laude Thesis Committee: Nasrin Rahimieh (chair), Adriana Michele Campos Johnson, and Touraj Daryaee Master of Fine Arts, Otis College of Art and Design; 2006 – 2008 Thesis Committee: Paul Vangelisti, Dennis Phillips, and Guy Bennett Master of Arts in English, Loyola Marymount University; 2007, Summa Cum Laude Exam Committee: Paul Harris and Ruben Martinez Bachelor of Arts in English, Loyola Marymount University; 2005, Magna Cum Laude Teaching University of California at Irvine, fall 2010 to present. • English 39c – Argument and Research (summer 2011-2014 online, winter/spring 2012 hybrid, winter 2013-present) • English 39b – College Writing (fall 2010 through fall 2012) • Summer Bridge Program (summer 2013/2014) Graduate Student Writing Tutor and Writing Seminar coordinator, Graduate Resource Center, University of California at Irvine, fall 2009 through summer 2010 Loyola Marymount University, 2006-2008 • English 110 – College Writing • English 140 – Introduction to Fiction Publications (cont.) “Synecdoche – Laleh Khorramian,” Canvass magazine (Mixed Media Publishing, April 2012) “Irangeles: A Fantasy Community of Iranian Exiles,” in Creoles, Diasporas, Cosmopolitanisms: Creolization of Nations, Cultural Migrations, Global Languages and Literatures (Academica Press, 2012) vii Publications (cont.) “Manifesting Beowulf’s Meta-Monsters,” in Interpreting Great Classics of Literature as Metatheatre and Metafiction: Ovid, Beowulf, Corneille, Racine, Wieland, Stoppard, and Rushdie (The Edwin Mellen Press Ltd., 2011) Guide to the Richard Rorty Papers, co-authored with Dawn Schmitz, Brian Jao Garcia, and Tae- Kyung Timothy Elijah Sung (California Digital Library 2010) “I ran,” The Truth about the Fact (Loyola Marymount University 2008) “3 Meditations on One Misery,” The Strip (Otis 2008) “I Spy a Butler: A Review of Oliver Cadiot’s Colonel Zoo,” New Review of Literature (Otis 2007) Research & Editing In-house copy editor at Advertising for Humanity.

Perhaps the oldest book I have written is a two-volume book that I have started writing at the age 16; books about myself, my past, memories and everything that I read it heard every day. The first volume, Arman Arian in his Words is about the books I have read and movies I have seen. This is a book that will be published after my death and if anyone reads and becomes interested in my books, could better understand my works. The second book, Old Man with Socks, is finished, it is a collection of my memories that am going to recount parts of it for you. My family has an old interest in history, my grandfather’s grandfather, “Mir Mohammad Sadegh Marvazi, was a historian of the Qajar court (one of the kingdoms of Iran over a hundred years ago), he was exiled to Tbilisi at the end of his life and is buried there. He wrote two histories, a formal court history, and another more real and but informal history, which later is published by his grandson, my uncle.

  • The Poetics of Commitment in Modern Persian: a Case of Three Revolutionary Poets in Iran
    The Poetics of Commitment in Modern Persian: A Case of Three Revolutionary Poets in Iran by Samad Josef Alavi A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Near Eastern Studies in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in Charge: Professor Shahwali Ahmadi, Chair Professor Muhammad Siddiq Professor Robert Kaufman Fall 2013 Abstract The Poetics of Commitment in Modern Persian: A Case of Three Revolutionary Poets in Iran by Samad Josef Alavi Doctor of Philosophy in Near Eastern Studies University of California, Berkeley Professor Shahwali Ahmadi, Chair Modern Persian literary histories generally characterize the decades leading up to the Iranian Revolution of 1979 as a single episode of accumulating political anxieties in Persian poetics, as in other areas of cultural production. According to the dominant literary-historical narrative, calls for “committed poetry” (she‘r-e mota‘ahhed) grew louder over the course of the radical 1970s, crescendoed with the monarch’s ouster, and then faded shortly thereafter as the consolidation of the Islamic Republic shattered any hopes among the once-influential Iranian Left for a secular, socio-economically equitable political order. Such a narrative has proven useful for locating general trends in poetic discourses of the last five decades, but it does not account for the complex and often divergent ways in which poets and critics have reconciled their political and aesthetic commitments. This dissertation begins with the historical assumption that in Iran a question of how poetry must serve society and vice versa did in fact acquire a heightened sense of urgency sometime during the ideologically-charged years surrounding the revolution.

  • GHAREHGOZLOU, BAHAREH, Ph.D., August 2018 TRANSLATION STUDIES
    GHAREHGOZLOU, BAHAREH, Ph.D., August 2018 TRANSLATION STUDIES A STUDY OF PERSIAN-ENGLISH LITERARY TRANSLATION FLOWS: TEXTS AND PARATEXTS IN THREE HISTORICAL CONTEXTS (261 PP.) Dissertation Advisor: Françoise Massardier-Kenney This dissertation addresses the need to expand translation scholarship through the inclusion of research into different translation traditions and histories (D’hulst 2001: 5; Bandia 2006; Tymoczko 2006: 15; Baker 2009: 1); the importance of compiling bibliographies of translations in a variety of translation traditions (Pym 1998: 42; D’hulst 2010: 400); and the need for empirical studies on the functional aspects of (translation) paratexts (Genette 1997: 12–15). It provides a digital bibliography that documents what works of Persian literature were translated into English, by whom, where, and when, and explores how these translations were presented to Anglophone readers across three historical periods—1925–1941, 1942–1979, and 1980–2015— marked by important socio-political events in the contemporary history of Iran and the country’s shifting relations with the Anglophone West. Through a methodical search in the library of congress catalogued in OCLC WorldCat, a bibliographical database including 863 editions of Persian-English literary translations along with their relevant metadata—titles in Persian, authors, translators, publishers, and dates and places of publication—was compiled and, through a quantitative analysis of this bibliographical data over time, patterns of translation publication across the given periods
