Sommario/riassunto

During the 1940s and 1950s, Islamic reformism flourished in Iran. This book examines how Iranian Islamic groups came to rethink traditional accounts of religion and nurture a politicized version of Islam. The author shows how similar social and political circumstances, but different family and educational backgrounds gave rise to socialist, democratic/scientific and fundamentalist/militant reinterpretations of Islam. What was common among these groups was a tendency towards politicizing the religion. A significant contribution to discussions of contemporary political thought in Iran, this book

Note generali

Title transliterated from Greek.

"The epistle dedicatory" signed: T.A., M.D.

Written by Dr. Thomas Allen. Cf. Halkett & Laing. Cf. also Wm. Beckett's Enquiry in the antiquity and efficacy of touching for the king's evil, 1722, p. 58: "Dr. Thomas Allen, sometime of Caius College in Cambridge, afterward physician in ordinary to King Charles the Second, published a treatise of the cure of the evil by the touch, which he entitles, 'The excellency or handy-work of the royal hand'." BM attributes to either Allen or to Thomas Harris.
