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. 606 $aTa?ziyah$xHistory and criticism 606 $aPersian drama$xHistory and criticism 606 $aIranian drama$xHistory and criticism 606 $aIslamic drama$zIran$xHistory and criticism 615 0$aTa?ziyah$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aPersian drama$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aIranian drama$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aIslamic drama$xHistory and criticism. 676 $a891/.5520516 700 $aMalekpour$b Jamshid$01582836 801 0$bOCoLC-P 801 1$bOCoLC-P 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910784085303321 996 $aIslamic drama$93865510 997 $aUNINA
