Viac o knihe

The book offers a provocative exploration of Iran's emergence as a regional power, highlighting its political, literary, and artistic evolution. Dabashi challenges traditional notions of the nation-state, presenting Iran's rebirth as a result of an "aesthetic intuition of transcendence." He illustrates how suppressed cultural and political forces are reshaping the nation's identity, fostering a self-awareness rooted in its history. Through revolutionary expressions in prose, poetry, and the arts, Iran asserts its sovereignty against state censorship, redefining its future beyond colonial constraints.
