But inside Iran, a breathtaking drama has unfolded over those years, as religious thinkers, political operatives, poets, journalists, and activists have imagined and reimagined what Iran should be. Drawing as deeply on the traditions of the West as of the East, they have acted upon their beliefs with urgency and passion, and have frequently risked their very lives.--$cPublisher. 607 $aIran$xPolitics and government$y1979-1997 607 $aIran$xPolitics and government$y1997- 607 $aIran$xHistory$y1979-1997 607 $aIran$xHistory$y1997- 607 $aIran$xIntellectual life$y20th century 607 $aIran$xIntellectual life$y21st century 607 $aIran$2fast 676 $a955.05/4 700 $aSecor$b Laura$01245974 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910148588203321 996 $aChildren of Paradise$92889282 997 $aUNINA
