de Pooriya Alimoradi

~~218,63€~~ 174,90€ 20% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 This book studies, for the first time, the Ma?ni-yi Vahman Yasht , the New Persian version of the Zand i Wahman Yast , the most important Zoroastrian text in apocalyptic genre. Through offering a critical edition, translation, and commentary, Alimoradi argues that the MVY is not a translation of the extant Pahlavi ZWY and is derived from another recension of apocalyptic materials in Pahlavi. He also offers suggestions in identifying several unspecified characters and events referred to in the text whose identities have been debated for decades. The book is relevant to those interested in Zoroastrianism, Iranian apocalyptic traditions, and anyone studying the Arab conquests in Western and Central Asia in 6?? to 9?? c. CE.

Walk Through The Iranian Heavens - Spherical And Non-Spherical Cosmographic Models In The Imagination Of Ancient Iran And Its Neighbors

de Antonio C.D. Panaino

~~177,55€~~ 142,04€ 20% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 This book by Antonio Panaino discusses the development of the Iranian cosmographical world and its interaction with the Greek, Mesopotamian and Indic civilizations. By undertaking such a study, the author places the Iranian intellectual tradition in perspective vis-a-vis other ancient civilizations and demonstrates the depth and importance of the Mazdean tradition, which was able to absorb and systematize foreign knowledge. Panaino shows the presence of both Aristotelian and Neo-Platonist traditions in the Iranian intellectual scene, though somewhat changed and acculturated to the Mazdean ideas and world-view. Hence, the book is a lively and interesting study of the juxtapositioning of various scientific and philosophical ideas at play in the Mediterranean, Iranian and Indic worlds. This volume was previously published by the Jordan Center for Persian Studies, University of California - Irvine.

King Of The Seven Climes - A History Of The Ancient Iranian World (3000 Bce - 651 Ce)

~~177,55€~~ 142,04€ 20% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 In a Middle Persian text known as Khusro and the Page, one of the most famous kings of the ancient Iranian world, Khusro I Anusheruwan, is called haft kiswar xawaday ("the King of the Seven Climes"). This title harkens back to at least the Achaemenid period when it was in fact used, and even further back to a Zoroastrian/Avestan world view. From the earliest Iranian hymns, those of the Gathas of Zarathushtra, through the Younger Avesta and later Pahlavi writings, it is known that the ancient Iranians divided the world into seven climes or regions. Indeed, at some point there was even an aspiration that this world should be ruled by a single king. Consequently, the title of the King of the Seven Climes, used by Khusro I in the sixth century CE, suggests the most ambitious imperial vision that one would find in the literary tradition of the ancient Iranian world. Taking this as a point of departure, the present book aims to be a survey of the dynasties and rulers who thought of going beyond their own surroundings to forge larger polities within the Iranian realm. This volume was previously published by the Jordan Center for Persian Studies, University of California - Irvine.

From Oxus To Euphrates - The World Of Late Antique Iran

de Khodadad Rezakhani e Touraj Daryaee

~~169,60€~~ 135,68€ 20% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 "For a long time, Sasanian studies were mainly cultivated by linguists and historians of religion, and the only standard work on the history of the Sasanian Empire was Arthur Christensen's L'Iran sous les Sassanides (Copenhagen 1936; second revised and expanded edition 1944). Only in recent years, Christensen's authority was challenged: Several new syntheses eventually allowed Late antique scholars to better understand the history and the structure of the great rival of the Roman Empire. However, we still lacked a handy, student-friendly introduction to Sasanians studies. Now, Daryaee and Rezakhani provide us with this very welcome booklet, which I highly recommend to students, to an educated audience, but also to Classical scholars (it's never too late)." - Giusto Traina, Paris-Sorbonne University This volume was previously published by the Jordan Center for Persian Studies, University of California - Irvine.
