From Karbala to New York City: Taziyeh on the Move
This collection of articles traces Taziyeh from its origins in Karbala in Iraq through its development as a serious dramatic form in Iran; its adaptation in Lebanon, India, and the Caribbean; and its debut on Western stages, culminating in a 2002 performance at Lincoln Center in New York City and a historic symposium at the Asia Society, where this issue got its start. Karbala and the relationship between Shiite and Sunnite Muslims, the origins o…
Community Process and the Performance of Muharram Observances in Trinidad
The famed Trinidadian writer quoted above speaks to us as a liminar from the margins. Being of East Indian origin, he is squarely on the inside of the community of worshippers he witnesses, but being a Hindu, he is on the outside looking in. He simultaneously lacks and shares something with those he observes, not fully cognizant of the experiential directness that he so acutely points out. The writer's epistemological dilemma or lack of understan…
Popular Entertainment, Media and Social Change in Twentieth-Century Iran
The 20th century has witnessed a dramatic change in the kind and form of entertainment in Iran. This is particularly true of the period since World War II. Some traditional entertainments have disappeared, others have undergone radical transformation, some are dying. New foreign forms have appeared and become popular. The crucial point, however, is that for the majority of the population, especially those living in towns, their major entertainmen…

Edward G. Browne's Turkish Connexion
The famous British orientalist E. G. Browne, a physician by training, was interested in Turkish language and literataure long before he became Professor of Arabic at Cambridge. It was at Cambridge that he wrote most of the works in the field of Persian studies, which were to bring him recognition as an outstanding Iranologist. But Browne's sense of affinity with the Turks endured from the time of the Russian-Turkish war of 1877-78, when he was on…

Islam in Modern Drama and Theatre
Mysticism and Dissent: Socioreligious Thought in Qajar Iran
This history examines the complex origins of religious dissent in 19th-century Qajar Iran (known to Westerners as Persia), and how it provided a mood and attitude which led to far-reaching political dissent, culminating in the establishment of a new government in 1906.
Bibliography of the Theatrical Movement of Western Asia and North Africa
This bibliographical survey covers the enormous area of North Africa, Western Asia, the Caucasus, and Central Asia. Populated mainly by Arabs, Iranians, and Turkic peoples, the region also includes numerous ethnic and religious minorities.

Literature in Pre-Safavid Isfahan
The most common classification of Persian literature is the classification according to geographical divisions. The literary style sabk carries the name of the geographical area in which it reached its climax. The boundaries of these divisions, however, are very flexible. The three main literary styles which follow each other consecutively are known as: Khurasani, c Iraqi, and Hindi. The time spans of each style are equally flexible. Within these…
