  • The Analysis of Colours Used in the Tahmasbi Shahnameh for the Second Period of Tabriz School
    The Turkish Online Journal of Design, Art and Communication - TOJDAC November 2016 Special Edition THE ANALYSIS OF COLOURS USED IN THE TAHMASBI SHAHNAMEH FOR THE SECOND PERIOD OF TABRIZ SCHOOL Shaho Ahmadian Young researchers and Elite club, Sanandaj Branch, Islamic Azad University, Sanandaj, Iran. [email protected] Parisa Mehdipour Young Researchers and Elite Club. Qeshm Branch, Islamic Azad University, Qeshm, Iran Karo Ahmadi Dehrashid Expert of Graphic, Applied and Scientific University, Soroush Culture and Art center, Sanandaj, Iran ABSTRACT Color and light are the main the elements of Persian painting. These two elements are manifested as inner and outer entity of a single reality, which represents the grace of God in the universe. Considering the verses from the Quran that "Allah is the Light of the heavens and the earth", allegorical and mysterious aspects of light and color have always been considered by Islamic philosophers, sages and mystics. Effects of Islamic philosophy and mysticism on the views of Muslim artist to the art and artistic practice display specific effects of color and light in the Iranian painting for inner observation of color and light through the paintings. Color in Iranian paintings has the light in itself and the light is reflected through colors. In Iranian miniature color is interpreted as light and the artist tries to represent the luminous universe by colors. Colors are pure and glittery. Golden, blue and green which are used with the same purity and they aren't combined or become more paled or more bold and they were put together. Sometimes they find a state of holiness which its effects still can be seen today.

  • Investigating the Manifestations of Greed in the Epical and Mythical Characters of Ferdowsi’S Shahnameh
    Investigating the manifestations of greed in the epical and mythical characters of Ferdowsi’s Shahnameh Leila Ahmadi Nasr 1*, Ali Eshghi Sardehi 2, Saeed Ruzbahani 2 1 PhD students, Persian literature and language, Islamic Azad University, Sabzevar Branch, Sabzevar, Iran; 2 Assistant professor, Persian literature and language, Islamic Azad University, Sabzevar Branch, Sabzevar, Iran. Correspondence: Leila Ahmadi Nasr, PhD students, Persian literature and language, Islamic Azad University, Sabzevar Branch, Sabzevar, Iran. Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT Based on Iranian myths, there has always been a confrontation between two Ahurai and Ahrimeni forces in progress. This issue has caused the human nature to be inflicted with such a situation. One of the works wherein the manifestation of myth, epic and history can be seen in the form of the confrontation between the good and evil is Ferdowsi’s Shahnameh which is an identity-bestowing book that besides this characteristic, contains many ethical and instructional concepts, as well. One of these concepts is avarice that creeps into the ego of the ideal and honorable characters in Shahnameh and adversely influences them and makes them encounter many ethical challenges. In this work, avarice has been depicted in the form of an ogre that is unequaled amongst the evils and deemed to be the most harmful. The investigation of the embodiments of this immorality in Shahnameh shows that Afrasiab Turani is the greediest person whose greedy behaviors cause the people from Iran and Turan to be repeatedly afflicted with financial and life problems and the blood of many innocent persons has been shed on the ground from the two sides.

  • Considering Light and Dark Concepts in Shahnameh
    Special Issue INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF HUMANITIES AND December 2015 CULTURAL STUDIES ISSN 2356-5926 Considering Light and Dark Concepts in Shahnameh Fazel Abbas Zadeh1, Mahnaz Akbari1 1.Department of Persian Language and Literature, Parsabad Moghan Branch, Islamic Azad University, Parsabad Moghan, Iran Abstract The contrast of good and evil is the main themes of Shahnameh. Bipolar belief in God's existence and evil, is rooted in mythological Iranian. Believing in the existence of two poles of the holy angels and demons rooted in mythological Iranian. And this belief is also reflected throughout the Shahnameh. In Shahnameh, where the forces of good, like Rostam, Fereydoun and Iraj who are the symbol of wisdom and goodness, are existence. The forces of darkness, like Zahhak and Tour as well, which symbolizes evil and folly are working to contend with them. Demons are a symbol of anti-values and heroes are symbol of values. These two forces are constantly struggling. An evil force is powerful enough to force for good, so sometimes overcome with it, but eventually will dominate force for good over evil. Effects of Ahura and Ahriman as well as introducing beauty in the ugliness of the kings and heroes, women and God's people, God and freedom-loving people against evil, cruel, bullying is too demanding; in fact, the deployment of truth against falsehood and evil and evil is good and right in the face. The mix of prose and poetry in simplicity and directness in this plan together and has a certain beauty to it. Dark and light concepts in the pain and suffering of God's people- friendly, free-loving, brave and justice-seeking and reveals the story of ugliness, lies and deceit, betrayal, evil and injustice, and power and fame-seeking kings and princes Turan.

  • A Study of Evil and Demonic Forces in Shahnameh
    International J. Soc. Sci. & Education 2015 Vol.5 Issue 3, ISSN: 2223-4934 E and 2227-393X Print A Study of Evil and Demonic Forces in Shahnameh By MozhganYahyazadeh, Abdolnaser Nazariani Persian Language and Literature, Urmia University, Iran. Abstract The creation of evils and evil creatures is not as vivid as the creation of good spirits ad as the goodness and the badness are the opposite of each other, each of these groups have assistants who are considered one of the group members. For instance, for Ahuramazda, good spirits and other related figures and for devil, dragons, evil spirits and other related bodies are called assistants. The study of myth shows the situation in which different cultures and societies lives and also shows their hard times and ideals. In this study, an attempt is made to investigate TheShahnameh written by Ferdowsi. In this way, different features of myth which are mentioned in the book are identified to be familiar with the relation between myth and attitudes of characteristics toward each feature. Keywords: Myth, evil, good spirits, Shahnameh, epic 1. Introduction Myths and literature are two opposing forces or the hero and anti-hero in front of each other. Here the forces of evil and evil will be discussed such as: devil, demon, magic, etc. The pace of events and mythical explanation of the logic, and their compliance with the experience of the outside world, leading to the displacement of mythology in literature. In myths, monsters or evil dragon dominates on the ground and this is causing havoc and its sterility, so that the Divine, the epitome of evil kills and a fertile land.

  • Persian," “Islamic," And
    Instabilities in the Identity of an Artistic Tradition as "Persian," “Islamic," and “Iranian” in the Shadow of Orientalism A Dissertation Submitted to the Committee on Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Faculty of Arts and Sciences Trent University Peterborough, Canada © Copyright by Nooshin Aghayan 2019 Cultural Studies Ph.D. Graduate Program May 2019 Abstract Instabilities in the Identity of an Artistic Tradition as "Persian," “Islamic," and “Iranian” in the Shadow of Orientalism Nooshin Aghayan This dissertation is a critical review of the discursive formation of Islamic art in the twentieth century and the continuing problems that the early categorization of this discipline carries. It deals with the impact of these problems on the conceptualization of another category, Persian art. The subject is expounded by three propositions. First, the category of Islamic art was initially a product of Orientalism formulated regardless of the indigenous/Islamic knowledge of art. Second, during the early period when art historians examined different theoretical dimensions for constructing an aesthetic of Islamic art in the West, they imposed a temporal framework on Islamic art in which excluded the non-traditional and contemporary art of Islamic countries. Third, after the Islamic Revolution in 1979, Iranian scholars eventually imposed academic authority over the discipline of Persian/Islamic art, they adopted the same inadequate methodologies that were initially used in some of the early studies on the art of the Muslims. These propositions are elaborated by examples from twentieth-century Iranian movements in painting, The Coffeehouse Painting and The School of Saqqakhaneh, and the incident of swapping Willem de Kooning‟s painting Woman III with the dismembered manuscript of the Shahnama of Shah Tahmasp in 1994.

The research will focus on the iconography and inscriptions that were employed on the coinage in order to demonstrate how Parthian authorities used these objects to convey political and religious ideologies to a diverse audience.

    TEHRAN BAZAAR Tehran Bazaar Contemporary Art in the Time of the Ayatollahs By Joobin Bekhrad n discourses revolving around Iran’s tumultuous history, particularly that of the last thousand years, a comparison has often been made between Iranian cul- Iture and the mythical phoenix. Following the decay and decline of the Sassanian Empire—heir to the legacy of the Achaemenids and Parthians, whose influence not only reached the far-flung corners of the then-known world politically, but cultur- ally as well—Iran was plunged into a dark era that would radically alter the course of its culture, history, and identity for centuries to come. The arrival of the Umayyads and Abbasids saw not only the eradication of Zoroastrianism, the indigenous Iranian religion dominant at the time, but also the widespread suppression of the Persian lan- guage and Iranian culture, which culminated in what is now referred to as the dreaded “two centuries of silence.” And, just when the newly humbled Iranians—who had only a short while back given the Romans a run for their money—thought they had seen the worst, the Mongols, following the course of their Seljuk brethren who had recently swept through Iran and laid the foundations for modern-day Turkey, razed the land of the noble to the ground, laying once-proud Persia to waste. Of many of the countless peoples and places Herodotus documented in his colos- sal Histories, only names and vestiges remain.
