In 1994 it became part of the Afghanistan National Disaster Management Authority (ANDMA). The name of DMC was changed to DMAC on 20th May 2015. DMAC with technical support from UNMAS is responsible for the leadership, monitoring and evaluation of all mine action activities in Afghanistan including demining, mine risk education, surveys, accreditation and adherence to national standards. DMAC receives support from the US Department of State Bureau of Political-Military Affairs, Office of Weapons Removal and Abatement (PM/WRA) through the “International Trust Fund (ITF) for Enhancing Human Security” a Slovenian Public International Organization in support of the national capacity development of the DMAC. ITF has signed a Memorandum of Cooperation with ANDMA. Acknowledgements The successful conduct and completion of this survey was a team effort involving ANDMA and DMAC staff with technical support from UNMAS. In particular, we would like to thank the US Department of State for providing financial support for the survey and also ANDMA provincial offices in Bamyan and Samangan for their endless support to the successful completion of the survey. We are very grateful to logistical support provided by ITF and the communities that received us in a very friendly and hospitable way, and patiently provided the information required for attaining the objectives of the survey. We hope that the information in this report will benefit these and other mine-affected communities in Afghanistan. It is worth mentioning that our special thanks go to the international independent livelihoods consultant Barry Pound who reviewed the report and provided helpful comments for improving the report.

  • On the Good Faith
    On the Good Faith Zoroastrianism is ascribed to the teachings of the legendary prophet Zarathustra and originated in ancient times. It was developed within the area populated by the Iranian peoples, and following the Arab conquest, it formed into a diaspora. In modern Russia it has evolved since the end of the Soviet era. It has become an attractive object of cultural produc- tion due to its association with Oriental philosophies and religions and its rearticulation since the modern era in Europe. The lasting appeal of Zoroastrianism evidenced by centuries of book pub- lishing in Russia was enlivened in the 1990s. A new, religious, and even occult dimension was introduced with the appearance of neo-Zoroastrian groups with their own publications and online websites (dedicated to Zoroastrianism). This study focuses on the intersectional relationships and topical analysis of different Zoroastrian themes in modern Russia.

As epic of every nation is a mirror that shows their culture, nature and endogenous life, these relations and coordination of two Iranian and Greek epics, Shahnameh and Iliad and Odysses show proximity of the two nations in mirror of history. .Shahnameh has been divided into three mythological, heroic and historical parts Iliad and Odysses has been also composed by Homerus, famous Greek poet. Iliad book includes explanation of ten years war between Greece and Troas in 24 chapters and Odysses, which has 24 poems, is about Olis, one of heroes of Troas war and figures his braveries. These two great epics which show two known old culture, can be compared from different characteristics.

  • Connection Between Epic and Play in Shahnameh: Comparative Study of Cognitive Drama Features in Two Stories of “Rostam and Sohrab” and “Rostam and Esfandiar”
    Journal of Sociological Research ISSN 1948-5468 2014, Vol. 5, No.1 Connection between epic and play in Shahnameh: Comparative Study of Cognitive Drama features in two Stories of “Rostam and Sohrab” and “Rostam and Esfandiar” io eodallo haolotamRaR ymoA,nm moA,hvRmAvmhoAthimamomv hcmoAv h,yaloeRvhnUothzARcmmaRdI Email: [email protected] no mmm hcoaor oAR ymoA,hmmeoAa o h,hmmeoAa o hcmoAv h,yaloeRvhnUothzARcmmaRdI RAhtmmaRoAhnoAa oamhoAthnRdmmod mmh.n.M Doi:10.5296/jsr.v5i1.6167 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.5296/jsr.v5i1.6167 Abstract This article aims to reject the eastern theories that believe Iranians lack classical texts which are presentable in play and makes an attempt to modify this theory and show that Ferdowsi has been able to link epic and play in his stories by describing and matching based on capabilities and dramatic features of the stories of Rostam and Sohrab and Rostam and Esfandiar. The article provides the context of Iranian literature for the generation of play and drama, because existence of plan, description, characterization, causation, suspension, tragedy, conflict, climax, dialogue, time, and location have given play form and context to many tales of Shahnameh. Of course, Ferdowsi has not composed play but has composed epic. It can be argued that the stories in Shahnameh have the play structure in epic form. Keywords: Play, Epic, Shahnameh, Dramatic, Story Elements. Introduction Giving importance to common human affliction is the secret of maintaining oral and written literary works of any nation. The reason is that topics such as ill-temper, good-temper, hatred, love, chastity, honesty, hypocrisy, envy, anger and greed have been and will be the subjects of all generations and eras and no generation has been able to ignore, abandon or lose them entirely.

Farhat-Holzman: The Shahnameh of Ferdowsi: An Icon to National Identity 104 COMPARATIVE CIVILIZATIONS REVIEW The Shahnameh of Ferdowsi: An Icon to National Identity LAINA FARHAT-HOLZMAN Introduction Epic poems are part of the heritage of many peoples around the world. Long before writing became the mode of transmitting culture and history, story tellers (usually in verse and song) have enthralled their communities with the inherited tales of the ancestors. The unifying theme of all epics is some heroic action by a hero or heroes: individuals who took on challenges for which death was a possibility. Certain epics have been identified with specific creators: such as the Iliad attributed to Homer and the Aeneid, a work we know was written by Virgil.

  • Anna Krasnowolska, Mythes, Croyances Populaires Et Symbolique Animale Dans La Littérature Persane, Paris
    Book Reviews / Iran and the Caucasus 18 (2014) 99-100 99 Anna Krasnowolska, Mythes, Croyances populaires et symbolique animale dans la littérature persane, Paris: “Association pour l’avancement des étu- des iraniennes” (Studia Iranica. Cahier 48), 2012, 248 pp. Symbolic animals or, rather, animal symbolism represent an impressive layer in the Iranian mythology and popular beliefs. The book under re- view consists of an Introduction, five major chapters, Conclusion, Bibliog- raphy, and Index. Chapter I, Gāv-e Gil. Mystérieux héros d’une fête hivernale, is based mainly on Abū Rayḥān al-Bīrūnī’s information on a festival held on the 16th day of the month Dey. The author gives all the possible interpreta- tions of the term Kākil/Gāv-e Gil and the mythological background of the festival. During the feast, the animal patron is represented by a decorated ox. This principal figure is similar to Barmāye, Feridun’s cow foster- mother and Primordial Ox, an archetype of all living species and a totemic ancestor of the First Man. Chapter II, Une formule magique contre les scorpions, is devoted to an- other festival, particularly to the practice of chasing scorpions from the houses. Its holy patron is Esfandārmaδ, i.e. Av. Spənta Ārmaiti, a personi- fication of Mother-Earth. The spell proper, recorded by Bīrunī in Persian, has also Pahlavi and Pa- zand parallels, and the whole festival seems to be the continuation of the well-known tradition of exterminating the harmful and noxious creatures, xrafstars, in Zoroastrian Iran. However, during this festival, the insects were not killed but just ritually removed from houses or fields, perhaps, due to the belief either in their protective power or, as chthonic beings, in their obvious ties with Mother-Earth.
