Introduction to the Contemporary Iran and Persian Gulf: Literature, Visual Material and Media Resources

This module is intended as an in-depth look at the language, civilization, and cultural and social processes of change in contemporary Iran, from the inception of the Iranian Revolution in 1978 to the present day. Persian literature will be the primary language of students in this module, which includes 36 hours in class with a complementary Persian calligraphy course (16 hours). The rest of the module (weekly seminar, Persian tea break, and documentary film) will look at the different socio-cultural aspects, the artistic and visual developments, gender relations, and particularly the geopolitical changes engendered by the Iranian Revolution and the Iran-Iraq War of the 1980s. While following a broad chronological perspective, students will be encouraged to engage with the Persian Language, Visual Material, Media and Communication Resources as well as the more general interdisciplinary questions that this course aims to call attention to.
