📚 Humanities in Iran✍️  Majid Daneshgar (Editor), Mohsen Feyzbakhsh (Editor), Azar Mirzaei (Editor), Sajjad Rizvi (Editor)💳 Publisher: Brill (August 27, 2026)〰️ Description:The study of the humanities is a truly global endeavour as cultures seek to make sense of the category of the human and its locations. What gives that inquiry colour, vibrancy, and dynamism, are the local and embedded expressions of the study of the human.Iran, both in premodern tradition and in the modern period, has been one of the leading Asian countries contributing to knowledge production and Muslim literatures and humanities. This volume, Humanities in Iran, offers a fresh voice about the structures, developments, receptions, and marginalization of the humanities (ʿUlūm-i Insānī) as a discipline in the Iranian academic context, particularly following the Islamic Revolution of 1979.Humanities in Iran is a series of reflections upon the connection between the classic and modern subjects in the humanities in relation to Eurocentrism, processes of Islamisation, and beyond the classic insider-outsider approaches to the field.〰️ Contents:Part 1: Theory and Method- Giving up the Task: Auto-Critical Notes on Translation and Humanities in IranOmid Mehrgan- When the Rhinoceros Was Only an Engraving: A Historical Account of the Fossilised Narratives and the Resurrected Readings of Evolution in IranErfan Khosravi- Ignoring Asia and Eurocentrism ManquéMajid DaneshgarPart 2: Critical, Historical and Comparative StudiesAnthropology- Anthropology and IslamAriane SadjedSociology- The Privatization of Sociology in IranReyhaneh Javadi and Zohreh BayatriziLinguistics- Global Perspectives on (Im)politeness Michael Haugh and Amir SheikhanIslamic Studies- Sīra Studies in IranEhsan RoohiIslamic TheologyStudying Kalam in IranMeysam Tavakoli BinaPhilosophy and Philosophical Developments- Historiography of Philosophy in Iran 249Hanif Amin-BeidokhtiHistory of Science- History of Science in Iran: An OverviewMostafa Yavari-Ayin and Amir-Mohammad GaminiIranian Studies- Iranian Kurdish StudiesMostafa KhaliliPart 3: Global and Comparative Perspectives- Reflecting Humanities in Iran and TurkeyPaul Ballanfat- Fractured Reception: Iranian Humanities and the Politics of Knowledge in AfghanistanAbbas Farasoo and Ali Reza Yunespour- Iran and Iranian Studies in MalaysiaRowena Abdul Razak- Iranian Intellectuals and the Japanese Idea of “Greater Asianism”Bahman Zakipour- Iranian Studies between Worlds: The Formation of a Discipline in Hungary (1500–1800)Iván Szántó- Iran and Iranian Humanities in SpainJosé Cutillas-Ferrer- Constructing and Deconstructing Corbin’s Iranology in Italian Academia: Gianroberto Scarcia on Shiʿism and PersiaAlessandro Cancian- Iran and Iranian Studies in the United KingdomA.C.S.
