The "frontier fictions," or the ways in which the Iranians viewed their often fluctuating borders and the conflicts surrounding them, played a dominant role in defining the nation. On these borderlands, new ideas of citizenship and nationality were unleashed, refining older ideas of ethnicity. Kashani-Sabet maintains that land-based conceptions of countries existed before the advent of the modern nation-state. Her focus on geography enables her to explore and document fully a wide range of aspects of modern citizenship in Iran, including love of homeland, the hegemony of the Persian language, and widespread interest in archaeology, travel, and map-making. While many historians have focused on the concept of the "imagined community" in their explanations of the rise of nationalism, Kashani-Sabet is able to complement this perspective with a very tangible explanation of what connects people to a specific place. Her approach is intended to enrich our understanding not only of Iranian nationalism, but also of nationalism everywhere. 606 $aGeographical perception$zIran 606 $aNationalism$zIran$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aNationalism$zIran$xHistory$y19th century 607 $aIran$xBoundaries 610 $aAbbas Mirza. 610 $aActivism. 610 $aAfghanistan. 610 $aAgriculture (Chinese mythology). 610 $aAhmad Kasravi. 610 $aAmir Kabir. 610 $aAnnexation. 610 $aArabs. 610 $aArmenians. 610 $aAryan. 610 $aAzerbaijanis. 610 $aBahrain. 610 $aBalochistan, Pakistan. 610 $aCartography. 610 $aCasus belli. 610 $aCentral government. 610 $aCitizenship. 610 $aCivil service. 610 $aCivilization. 610 $aConstitutionalism. 610 $aConstitutionalist (UK). 610 $aCulture of Iran. 610 $aCurriculum. 610 $aDespotism. 610 $aDisenchantment. 610 $aEpithet. 610 $aFereydun. 610 $aGeography of Iran. 610 $aGovernance. 610 $aGratitude. 610 $aHerat. 610 $aHistoriography. 610 $aIdeology. 610 $aIllustration. 610 $aImperialism. 610 $aIranian nationalism. 610 $aIranian peoples. 610 $aIslam. 610 $aKarbala. 610 $aKhuzestan Province. 610 $aKirman (Sasanian province). 610 $aKirmani. 610 $aKurds. 610 $aLanguage reform. 610 $aLiterature. 610 $aMajlis. 610 $aManifest destiny. 610 $aMilitarization. 610 $aMirza. 610 $aModernity. 610 $aMushir. 610 $aNarrative. 610 $aNasir al-Din. 610 $aNation state. 610 $aNationality. 610 $aNationalization. 610 $aNewspaper. 610 $aNusrat. 610 $aOf Education. 610 $aOttoman Empire. 610 $aPatriotism. 610 $aPersian language. 610 $aPersian mythology. 610 $aPersian people. 610 $aPersianization. 610 $aPolitician. 610 $aPolitics of Iran. 610 $aPolitics. 610 $aPower politics. 610 $aQajar dynasty. 610 $aQajars (tribe). 610 $aReign. 610 $aRepublicanism. 610 $aReza Shah. 610 $aRhetoric. 610 $aRuler. 610 $aRussians. 610 $aRustam (Haqqani network). 610 $aSafavid dynasty. 610 $aSasanian Empire. 610 $aSayyid. 610 $aSeparatism. 610 $aShahnameh. 610 $aSheikh. 610 $aSistan. 610 $aSovereignty. 610 $aSuzerainty. 610 $aTabriz. 610 $aTax. 610 $aTextbook. 610 $aThe Other Hand. 610 $aTreatise. 610 $aTreaty. 610 $aTurkistan (city). 610 $aWar. 610 $aWarfare. 610 $aWealth. 610 $aWriting. 610 $aYazd. 610 $aZoroastrianism. 615 0$aGeographical perception 615 0$aNationalism$xHistory 615 0$aNationalism$xHistory 676 $a955.05 700 $aKashani-Sabet$b Firoozeh$0649494 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910820988303321 996 $aFrontier fictions$91156224 997 $aUNINA
