Book Synopsis Theater State and the Formation of Early Modern Public Sphere in Iran by : Babak Rahimi
Book excerpt: This first systematic study of a wide range of Persian and European archival and primary sources, analyzes how the Muharram rituals changed from being an orginally devotional practice to public events of political significance, setting the stage for the emergence of the early modern Iranian public sphere in the Safavid period.
