Through a careful study of contemporary Iranian history in its political, literary, and artistic dimensions, Dabashi decouples the idea of Iran from its colonial linkage to the cliché notion of "the nation-state," and then demonstrates how an "aesthetic intuition of transcendence" has enabled it to be re-conceived as a powerful nation. This rebirth has allowed for repressed political and cultural forces to surface, redefining the nation's future beyond its fictive postcolonial borders and autonomous from the state apparatus that wishes but fails to rule it. Iran's sovereignty, Dabashi argues, is inaugurated through an active and open-ended self-awareness of the nation's history and recent political and aesthetic instantiations, as it has been sustained by successive waves of revolutionary prose, poetry, and visual and performing arts performed categorically against the censorial will of the state.--$$cProvided by publisher. 000806562 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (viewed November 30, 2016) 000806562 651_0 $$aIran$$xHistory$$y21st century. 000806562 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z1137592400$$z9781137592408$$w(OCoLC)952789284 000806562 852__ $$bebk 000806562 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1057/978-1-137-58775-6$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000806562 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:806562$$pGLOBAL_SET 000806562 980__ $$aEBOOK 000806562 980__ $$aBIB 000806562 982__ $$aEbook 000806562 983__ $$aOnline 000806562 994__ $$a92$$bISE
