Modern Iran (RLE Iran A)
This volume shows the progress and achievements of Iran up to the 1940s within the setting of her ancient history and her strategic position in the world today. The author discusses Iran’s vital position as the dividing line between the East and the West and how Iran drew from and contributed to both these cultures, without losing her own individuality. It is this cultural influence, the author argues, rather than any political strength that has …

Collecting Folktales in Iran
IN the introduction to his revision of Antti Aarne's The Types of the Folktale, published in 1961, Stith Thompson included Iran among the areas which, he said, were so far as folk literature was concerned 'almost completely unexplored.' It is surprising, though undoubtedly true, that this should have been the case as recently as twenty years ago. Of course the serious study of the folktale is in any case a somewhat recent development, and the ori…

The Iranian Revolution
That Islam played a significant role in events in Iran during 1978 and 1979 is hardly in question. What is much less clear is the nature and significance of that role. For many observers the Iranian 'revolution' was an upsurge of religious revivalism against materialism and corruption in high places. Others saw it as a rejection by the common people of the economic benefits of modernization and Westernization. For some it was a spontaneous reacti…

Family Relationships in Persian Folk-Literature
R ECENT legislation in Iran has drawn attention to the thought that is being given in that country to the clarification and codification of current practice in the field of family law. While it is obvious that much of the reform that has taken place has its origin in non-Iranian and especially European legislation, it is at least held in principle that the basic source of the present Iranian family laws is the Shi'a Ithna-'ashari law. We are boun…

Elementary Persian Grammar
Mr Elwell-Sutton's book provides a simple grammatical framework for contemporary written Persian. It is based on the characteristic idiom and phraseology of the language as it is used in newspapers, magazines and novels. The student is introduced to Persian script from the first lesson. Words are fully vocalized in the early lessons, but vowels are progressively discarded; they are, however, shown in the vocabulary. The letter-forms of printed Pe…
