Summary:The romantic lyricism of the great Persian poet Hafiz (1315-1390) continues to be admired around the world. Recent exploration of that lyricism by Iranian scholars has revealed that, in addition to his masterful use of poetic devices, Hafiz's verse is deeply steeped in the philosophy and symbolism of Persian love mysticism. This innovative volume discusses the aesthetic theories and mystical philosophy of the classical Persian love-lyric (ghazal) as particularly exemplified by Hafiz (who, along with Rumi and Sa'di, is Persia's most celebrated poet). For the first time in western literature, Ha.

Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. xii, 508 pages, 16 unnumbered pages of plates : illustrations ; 25 cm. Summary:"Zill al-Sultan was the notorious Qajar prince who ruled Isfahan, Iran's former capital during the Safavid era, as governor from 1874 to 1907. He is remembered as a Qajar anti-hero - even a villain - to this day, based largely on his apparent exercise of absolute power and pursuit of intrigue to further his own political interests." "Heidi A. Walcher has produced the first, extraordinarily important study which works both as a biography of one of the most colourful individuals in the history of modern Iran and as a study of the social and political circumstances of late nineteenth-century Iran in general and Isfahan in particular. She investigates the growing British and Russian interference in the country and the impact of these foreign interventions, not least among the clerical elite of Isfahan, which has always been a leading centre of Shi'ite theology in Iran, and among its mercantile classes. The rise of the Tobacco Protests in 1890-2, the constant trade wars against the British, the suspicions against the Jewish merchants, the persecution of local Babis and Bahais, the conflicts with European missionaries, ultimately the fall of Zill al-Sultan in 1 907 after 33 years of rule and the rise of the Bakhtiaris as the new ruling power in Isfahan - all these developments resulted from the pivotal role of the mullahs (and their collaboration with the merchants) led by Aga Najafi, who was the city's principal cleric and who, with his brothers, represented the militant and radical tendencies within Iran's Shi'ite establishment." "This book, tracing the history of late nineteenth-century Isfahan past the 1 906 Constitutional Revolution, is a major contribution to a proper understanding of modern Iran."--Jacket.

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. xiii, 336 pages, illustrations : 124 cm. Summary:Political upheaval has marked Iran's history throughout the twentieth century. Wars, revolutions, coups and the impact of modernism have shaped Iran's historiography, as they have the country's history. Originally based on oral and written sources, which underpinned traditional genealogical and dynastic history, Iran's historiography was transformed in the early 20th century with the development of a 'new' school of presenting history. Here emphasis shifted from the anecdotal story-telling genre to social, political, economic, cultural and religious history-writing.

Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: New. xvii, 626 pages : illustrations, maps : 27 cm. Summary:Interest and fascination in Achaemenid Persia has burgeoned in recent years. It is time for a major new appraisal of the glorious civilization founded by Cyrus the Great and continued by his successors, the Great Kings Darius I, Xerxes and Artaxerxes I. This volume offers precisely that: a sustained and comprehensive overview of the field of Achaemenid studies by leading scholars and experts. It discusses all aspects of Achaemenid history and archaeology between 550 BCE and 330 BCE, and embraces the whole vast territory of the Persian Empire from North Africa to India and from Central Asia to the Persian Gulf. Topics covered include aspects of Achaemenid religion, administration, material culture, ethnicity, gender and the survival of Achaemenid traditions. The publication of the book is an event: it represents a watershed not only in better appreciation and understanding of the rich and complex cultural heritage established by Cyrus, but also of the lasting significance of the Achaemenid kings and the impact that their remarkable civilization has had on wider Persian and Middle Eastern history.
