    HIST 6824 Modern Iran Rome 459 Professor M.A. Atkin Wednesdays: 5:10-7:00 Office: Phillips 340 Spring 2014 Phone: 994-6426 e-mail: [email protected] Office hours: M & W: 1:30-3:00 and and by appointment Course Description: This seminar will take a thematic approach to the period from about the year 1800 (when a state with roughly the dimensions of modern Iran emerged) to 1989 (the end of the Khomeini era.) Recurrent themes of the course include problems of state building in the context of domestic weaknesses and external pressure, ideas about reform and modernization, the impact of reform by command from above, the role of religion in politics, and major upheavals, such as the Constitutional Revolution of 1906, the oil nationalization crisis of 1951-1953, and the Islamic Revolution of 1978-1979. The specific topics and readings are listed below. The seminar meetings are structured on the basis of reading and discussion for each week’s topic. Further information on the format is in the section “Course Readings” below. In addition to the weekly reading and discussion, students are expected to write a term paper which draws on their readings for the course. The term papers are due on Monday, April 28, 2014.) Details of the paper will be provided separately. A student who already has a strong background in the history of modern Iran may prefer to focus on a research paper. Anyone who is interested in that option should inform me of that at the end of the first meeting. Early in the semester, such students should consult with me to define a suitable research project.

  • Firdawsi's Shahnama in Its Ghaznavid Context A.C.S. Peacock1 Abstract
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by St Andrews Research Repository Firdawsi’s Shahnama in its Ghaznavid context A.C.S. Peacock1 Abstract Firdawsi’s Shahnama, the completion of which is traditionally to around 400/1010, is generally thought to have been a failure at first. It is said by both traditional accounts and much modern scholarship to have been rejected by its dedicatee Sultan Mahmud of Ghazna, and its contents of ancient Iranian legends, transmitted from earlier sources, are widely considered to have been out of step with the literary tastes of the Ghaznavid period. This article reassesses the reception of the Shahnama in the Ghaznavid period, arguing that evidence suggests neither its style nor contents were outdated, and that its tales of ancient Iranian heores had a great contemporary relevance in the context of the Ghaznavid court’s identification of the dynasty as the heir to ancient Iran. The extent to which Firdawsi can be shown to have relied on pre-Islamic sources is also reevaluated Key words Firdawsi – Shahnama – Ghaznavids – pre-Islamic Iran – Persian poetry The reception history of few books can be as well-known as the Shahnama: the allegedly cool reaction of sultan Mahmud of Ghazna (d. 421/1030) when presented with the work around the year 400/1010, and the biting satire on the ruler Firdawsi is claimed to have penned in response, together form part of the Shahnama legend.2 Firdawsi’s hostile reception by the rival poets of Ghazna, for instance, became a topic of miniature painting in manuscripts of the poem,3 and lines such as the satire were interpolated to underline the point.4 Today, the poem’s initial flop is usually taken for granted, and has been attributed to both its form and its contents, which are assumed to be purely antiquarian,5 bereft of any contemporary relevance.

  • A Passion for Persian Culture: Gifts Support Iranian Studies by Meredith Kunz
    Summer 2010 A Passion for Persian Culture: Gifts Support Iranian Studies BY MEREDITH KUNZ Bita Daryabari is passionate about Persian culture. Her goal is to share this enthusiasm with the Stanford community—and, by extension, with all Americans. “I want to expose Americans to the poetry and arts of Iran, to educate the American public about what Iran is all about—its literature and history,” she explains. This effort is especially important in light of current events. “Given the high level of political tension between the two countries today and the critical need to avoid violent conflict, I thought this was a great time to foster more understanding about the other side of Iran,” says Daryabari. The Bay Area philanthropist has now provided a generous $5 million in gifts to further the study of Persian language and literature at Stanford. When combined with matching funds from the Hewlett Foundation, Daryabari’s support adds up to a total of $6.5 million in endowment, lending significant momentum to the university’s Iranian Studies Program. Daryabari’s first commitment to the program, made in 2007, set up an endowment to fund courses, lectures, and conferences on Persian art and literature. She also created the Bita Prize for Literature, an annual award given to recognize an Iranian artist or writer who has achieved excellence in his or her field. Iranian novelist Goli Taraghi and poet Simin Behbahani have both been honored. This gift also funds a visiting professorship, enabling renowned artists, writers, and scholars from Iran to teach at Stanford. Last fall, she expanded her investment in the program by endowing the Bita Daryabari Professor- ship in Persian Studies, to be held by a teacher and scholar with expertise in Persian language and literature.

    Persian Language and Iranian Studies at the University of British Columbia Opportunities for Transformative Giving At the University of British Columbia, we share your conviction that education is powerful. Strong educational institutions underpin society, empowering individuals and communities to seize opportunities and change the world for the better. Recognizing the importance of Persian culture and history, UBC has taken the lead in Western Canada to anchor teaching and research in Persian language and Iranian studies. “As a girl from a religious minority and who is not welcome to visit Iran (her motherland), your classes have enabled me to learn about the history of my family, where I come from, and what I have to be proud about through my heritage. This is a gift no one else has been able to give me up until this point in my life.” – Camelia Alikashan Building on Success Since 2011, the Department of Asian Studies in the Faculty of Arts has offered Persian Student Testimonials language courses for non-heritage and heritage learners, introduced students to the depth and the breadth of Persian language and culture, and expanded course offerings “As a Canadian with an Iranian by successfully piloting courses on Persian literature, Iranian history and civilization, heritage, I learned so much about and Iranian cinema. my heritage, my history and my The Department of Asian Studies has made a significant commitment in administrative ancestors.
