This work examines the evolution of the Ta'ziyeh, which involved elements drawn from Zoroastrianaism, Mithraism, mythology, folklore and traditional forms of Iranian entertainment. In its final form, most of its elements - plot, character, thought, spectacle and song - derive from the Shi'a branch of Islam. Its main plot concerns the suffering and death of Imam Hussein, grandson of the Prophet of Islam.TaʻziyahHistory and criticismPersian dramaHistory and criticismIranian dramaHistory and criticismIslamic dramaIranHistory and criticismTaʻziyahHistory and criticism.Persian dramaHistory and criticism.Iranian dramaHistory and criticism.Islamic dramaHistory and criticism.891/.5520516Malekpour Jamshid1582836OCoLC-POCoLC-PBOOK9910784085303321Islamic drama3865510UNINA
